  1. As the Globe turns “All the world’s a stage” said the Bard of Avon. I’m taking you behind the scenes for an inside look at producing your Shakespeare . Extravaganza

  2. You have in your hands now the sacred guide sheet for your project. Let’s look at it to review what we know and to see what’s ahead. Here are the outcomes I’m hoping for you: • Connect what you know about the plays from Eliot Engles’ information to what you discover from reading summaries and doing on-line research on your own. • Sustain some vigorous reading and research to expand your knowledge of Shakespeare • Feel more comfortable with Renspeak by hearing and using the language. • Encourage and help one another on your various projects. • Work effectively in a group if you choose, and realize you work better solo if that’s what you need to do. • Plan a media production that involves oral interpretation. • Execute your plans using appropriate check sheets, drafts, to do lists, practices, etc. • Present your Extravaganza on time, well-done, and within time limits. • Totally enjoy the Extravaganza, oranges, meat pies, bear claws, tomatoes , and liquid refreshment.

  3. Shakespeare wrote comedies, histories, and tragedies. Which areas might you want to explore? • Does death and destruction in histories and tragedies make you drool like a groundling watching violence?

  4. How about the supernatural beings?
