hi, hi, hi, beautiful sunday...

Oh, come on, juniors...you know you'll have a great time this Sunday. It's what you live for. :-)

(And don't forget: on Monday, it will be all over!)

Juniors: The link for the Anouilh Antigone is on the 3H page (books/Theban Plays). Or anyway it will be as soon as I can work out a kink or three. This is due on Thursday.

Oh, and there is this small project due on Monday. Bring food to party. :-)

Sophs: RW Monday, but there is a Death of a Salesman assignment for the weekend. Here it is: There are six main characters in this play. For each, find one key quotation that and one that they say and one that someone else says that you believe embody who they are and what they are all about. Write these two quotations down. Then write one paragraph in which you explain the thing you feel is the essence of the character. When you are finished, you will have 12 quotations and 6 paragraphs. This should be typed and double-spaced.

Drama: Monday is full o'stuff:
  • finishing the SPY GAME
  • finishing the behavior scenes
  • Matt's monologue?
  • parent monologues
  • teacher scenes
  • written work for monologue analysis due

Written monologue work:

  • create a Word file and type your monologue into it
  • divide file into three columns, and place column break at end of column one
  • place another column break at top of column 2 and again at top of column 3, leaving both columns empty
  • repeat on next page or pages if necessary
  • in Column 2, add notes about the text: what is being said, how it relates to anything you know about the context of the monologue or the character, interpretations of elements in the text/symbols or metaphors/etc., questions and random thoughts about the character based on the text
  • in Column 3, add OBJECTIVES for the monologue (remember to phrase them in strong active verbs; go back and look on pages 17-21). Depending on the monologue, there might be a single one that is consistent throughout, one objective with tactical changes, or perhaps several changing objectives. Also in this column try to define some subtext you might employ in performing this monologue.
i did misremember: daniel boone is a one hit wonder all right, but he's a single guy from the good ol' u s of a:



for those who want your sunday sung by someone beautiful...



want a hip hop remix? :-)



and just in case your Sunday isn't beautiful enough, listen to this guy's cover of the song:



if he practices very hard, he could grow up to be this guy:
