Thanks for coming!
I'm Jessi, I'm here to make you jealous about my fantastic journey. I'm kidding! What I'd really like to do here is talk about Shakespeare and any other theatre I manage to come across, as well as a little bit of what I'm doing between shows.
Some questions you might have:
1. Why are you so interested in Shakespeare?
I've loved Shakespeare since I was in middle school. Something about it... the beauty of the language, the depth of the characters, the infinite number of choices to play with as an actor... it gets me on a level I can't quite describe. It gets me a little high. Shakespeare is easier than you might think. I think of it as "yodaspeak".
2. How are you affording the trip?
I was saving to go to my graduate school for a third year to pick up another degree, but since that wasn't going to happen, I decided to take those funds and fly away.
3. When are you going?
I will be flying out April 23rd and returning May 16th.
4. Are you going by yourself?
Yes and no. I have one friend in London who I'm sure I'll see a few times, and my mom is going to fly out and join me for almost two weeks as well. :-D
I'll be seeing Dido, Queen of Carthage, at the American Shakespeare Center's Blackfriars Playhouse on Saturday, so I'll post then to warm up my reviewing fingers. Until then!
