  • One day, God will condemn me to hell, and when I get there the devil will be performing amateur Shakespeare.

  • the issue is that the monologue really doesn't "mean" anything... Mercutio is rambling, ranting, imagining, enjoying himself while teasing his friends. He is entertaining them (more or less) -- there is no specific way it must be played, but the actor must make a conscious choice. sadly, this did not happen here. Judging by her age, I blame the director.

  • Quite, I have to say that she hasn't read the section of the book before, only memorized the lines. Kind of disappointing in my opinion.

  • Great memorization...however it doesn't capture the character of Mercutio at all. He's playful, mischevious, and he's messing with Romeo as he speaks this monologue. It's not supposed to be serious.

  • Oooo. She doen't have a clue as to what this monologue means! Super bad acting.
