Okay, so I cheated. I couldn’t find time to set everything up. Sorry!
This week’s midterm week at my school. My english teacher assigned the best midterm ever for us. We just started reading Romeo and Juliet last week.
Yesterday, she asked to see who didn’t read the part assigned. Then, she told us that whoever didn’t read would be taking a paper midterm. The rest of us would be in a ball, which coincides with Act I Scene V. We would be acting out the scene and then have a “feast.” All of the people in the ball would have to wear masks and if they wanted extra credit, they’d have to try and dress like people from the Elizabethan Era.
My role was to be a partygoer and dance a bit when it was time to do so. I really wanted that extra credit, so I printed out a mask. I had to wear tights, so I used my long johns. I wore my jeans over them and rolled them up to look like breeches. (Sadly, I didn’t get any shots of myself.) Everyone who dressed up looked kinda funny. The best midterm. Ever.
