I like the  bare stage which foregrounds the universal character of this play. It also revitalizes the audience' imagination

We actually had to push it back a week because of snow, so it was last night instead. I had so much fun. It was the first time I'd ever done something like that and I LOVED it. The audience (all 58 of them) really seemed to like it and I can't wait to do it again tonight!

The footage? We have it on VHS at our school. We watched it in Theatre class last semester and then our Drama teacher decided to do it for the fall play. I'm Mrs. Gibbs. Our opening night is two weeks from tomorrow.
