This summer I saw the propeller theatre company's production of The Winter's tale. I thought they took a really interesting spin on it. They changed the setting and had all original music. On top of that it was an all male cast. And an even bigger challenge was that they were playing two shows at once. They would interchange between Richard III and The Winter's tale. I feel that this is a challenge for an actor. I was able to meet a few of the cast members and they were really intelligent and very involved in all aspects of theatre. Overall they were just a really enthralling bunch of people. Here is a link to their website with all their info and some videos.

Good Morning everyone
Here are the components I need from you in your textwork (so far)
Text work:
Super Objective
Beats & beat changes
moment before
location (time of day, place, temperature, etc)
4th wall - who or what is between your character and the audience
I will be adding more specific requirements for verse textwork as we continue through the semester, but this will work for now
