Ophelia's Suicide Soliloquy

[SparsileStars]

This is absolutely amazing!! Was this a school project or just a hobby! Masterfully done either way!! I recently uploaded the "o what a noble mind..." monologue and was searching around for other renditions, but this was better!! Love it! <3

I came across this video as I was googling about Ophelia's monologues as I'm working on a dance choreography for a charity event. I found your piece amazing. The project is a modern adaptation of Hamlet, where the central character is Ophelia, and I wonder if you might be willing to share your poetry to use on Ophelia's suicide scene (instead of music).

Please let me know if you'd be interested, and I'll tell you more about the project.

Thank you!

where would you insert this in the play? act, scene, line?

[MargretDean]

wow dude maybe you guys should be writing a play. hahaha i liked the video btw

[tonesme]

you dont have to say anything, just know that now i consider it to be one of the most beautiful things i have ever heard, especially since it's your voice.

[fidelis1400]

what are you trying to accomplish? At least try and get over me or try to ignore me.

[tonesme]

im not trying to accomplish anything. Im sorry that i still miss you and that i still love you. im trying my best, but some days i just break down.

[fidelis1400]

I knew that it was going to be hard for you and I think about you everyday. You are just making my life more difficult by making comments like this, but I guess I just deserve it. At least you have a job to look forward to. That's exciting!

[tonesme]

Im sorry, i dont want to make your life miserable, ill try to stop being so emotional, but its hard for me. and teaching scares me, fyi

[fidelis1400]

Why would teaching scare you? It's a good challenge for you to step up and take control of certain situations. You survived Hillsdale, you can survive teaching. I have faith that you will succeed.

[tonesme]

it scares me because ill teach 7-12th grade history. im glad you have faith ill succeed, im still skeptical

[fidelis1400]

At least you only have to teach history and not some other subject that you would hate to teach. Just be fun and engaging, but still strict at the same time. You will rock the classroom.

[tonesme]

who ever knew this would be the epitome of my emotional state since december. and i used to laugh at it, but not anymore.

[fidelis1400]

I don't even know what to say to that.

[DiceKingGambit]

Holy crap...

[fidelis1400]

yes

[catojohnson]

would you mind sending me a transcript of this please?

[fidelis1400]

why

[catojohnson]

I think it is outstanding...and I am writing a paper for a college Shakespeare course about Ophelia's "suicide" and your solilquy would be an excellent resource. Please?

[fidelis1400]

i don't think your professor will think I am a legit resource for a shakespeare paper. plus i don't want you to steal my fab. work heehee

[catojohnson]

I guarantee I won't steal you work, and my professor actually approves. Is that a no?

[fidelis1400]

what college are you from?

[catojohnson]

Arizona State

[fidelis1400]

ok I'll think about it. when do you need it by?

[midknight9000]

i go to Arizona State

[fidelis1400]

what is your e-mail address because I can't attach a word document to a youtube message?

[bookkeeper57]

Too bad Ophelia wasn't rational enough for a scene like that: well conceived and delivered.

Ophelia loved Hamlet, but she didn't have a clue about who he was, or where he was at.

[midknight9000]

fuckin awesome!!!! huge props.

[EllzMiNiUnIvErSe]

This brilliant! if only it were in the real play.
