Thy Mercutio doth need a little work.

And do not saw the air too much with your hand thus but uae all gently. You must acquire and beget a temperance that may give it smoothness. With this special observance: that you o'erstep not the modesty of nature: for anything so overdone is from the purpose of playing!!!!!!

The ridiculous hand motions are good imo... they're all Italian after all

actually, no where in the script does it mention Mercutio is a little drunk. It can be reasonably inferred that he might be drunk while going masking -but there is no dirent (or even indirect) reference to his having imbibed.

good effort for a high school assignment... I would suggest reading a literal translation to glean an understanding and then attacking the monologue. Also, I would ensure I know all the words (agate = ag-it, not a-gate; plagues = play-gs, not plags)

a lot of people are commenting on how he was drunk if you read the play mercutio is actually a little drunk thats why he is rambling on about this queen mab but i do admit you were kind of all over the place, its good to have movement but you were distracting and lines read very slow,

and stop pacing..

OK, you missed a few lines and the movement and hand gestures were a bit distracting, face the audience a bit more, keep a little higher volume, and you'll be good
ah hence your english teacher giving you the script,was it from the whole play or a cut down shortened version?

It was a photocopy from the scripts we were reading in class, which I'm guessing were slimmed-down versions.
