For a woman ..... Portia sure does talk like a patronizing middle aged man .....

Yes, it 'tis a bit comical, but we must remember that Merchant of Venice is, itself, defined as a 'comedy' in the Shakespeare canon. So why not spice up the famous speech with a paper-puppet?

INTERHIGH PLOX
-
this is really good.. helps me learn it ...but still it is a wee bit odd, seeing a paper pupet speak and look directly at me and to me... lol it is helpful though...
-
It is a verse passage.
-
This is fun. Is this famous speach a verse or a prose? do you know?

But how? How did this video save your life? Were you looking for an effective interpretation of the speech, for, say, a drama class assignment, and this pointed the way? HOW? Please!

Oh, there are many versions of the Mercy Speech on the Tube and other Video sites, to be sure! Some are quite good, but I hardly see how anyone could surpass that of the great Katherine Hepburn who played Portia in the early 1950s at Stratford.
