We started the lesson by playing a game where we were given many different actors and we had to put them in groups, we decided to put them into categories of different genres. Then we had to decide which actors had performed Shakespeare, we were correct because we guessed that all of them had. From this exercise I learnt that anyone can do Shakespeare no matter what type of acting background they have.

We then rehearsed and performed our Reduced Shakespeare piece. I think by making the language simple and clear the audience could really understand what we were doing and what the storyline was. We spent the rest of the lesson rehearsing and showing back our monologues.
