Waiting for Godot

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>I've never read Waiting for Godot, so I thought it would be cool if we did an HSL performance of it. I don't think it's ever been done before</p>

2

<p>Our exercises.
Our elevations.
Our relaxations.
Our elevations.</p>

<p>=) Waiting for Godot=pretty darn awesome.
How would we go about performing it online? :confused: I think the best approximation would be in the random thoughts thread.</p>

3

<p>I think we would just say the lines. I’m pushing the limits of just how futile a thread can be</p>

4

<p>^^Well, there’re some of the lines, more or less accurate and possibly even in order. Anything else?</p>

<p>Sweet!

<p>Wikisource, one of my favorite wikipedia sister projects, has this whole Ben Jonson comedy! :O</p>

<p>SIR EPICURE MAMMON is my favorite</p>

<p>Ben Jonson was a funny guy. Just like Gogol</p>

8

<p>I’ll play the title role of Subtle, if you don’t mind. Otherwise I would gladly portray Face or the above named knight</p>

9

<p>Here lies Sir Tact, a diplomatic fellow
Whose silence was not golden, but just yellow.</p>

<p>I’ll take Dol Common. A good name.</p>

10

<p>Methinks 'tis so.
Here’s what we’ve got:</p>

<p>Subtle: Myself, so long as no talented thespians enter and claim the title role
Face: ?
Dol Common: leafblade1354</p>

11

<p>Shall we recruit people or send likely letters? </p>

<p>I have changed my mind. I don’t want to be Dol Common. </p>

12

<p>I will be Face.</p>

13

<p>lol you can take Subtle, and I’ll be Face so we can begin
~ The Alchemist, a Play by Ben Jonson: Performed by the Royal HSL Players ~</p>

<p>OPENING ACT. ENTER ME, LEAFBLADE, AND DOL COMMON</p>

<p>… oh you just believe it: I will!</p>

14

<p>Thy worst! I thumb my nose at thee.</p>

<p></p>

15

<p>^ I envisioned such freedom></p>

<p>I suppose I shall wait a bit for someone to take the part of Mr. Common</p>

<p>I meant to edit my above post, so whenever you want to take Face, just indicate so</p>

16

<p><intermission> So am I Face, or are you?? Also, Common is a Ms. Of the very worst kind. </intermission></p>

17

<p>Oh dear. I was not careful in my reading. You can take Face, as you have indicated that you wished to be the rascal</p>

18

<p>No, I can take Subtle. I can do alchemy reasonably well.</p>

19

<p>excellent then. Does anyone wish to be Dol Common? Just follow the link on the first page and click on act 1, or you can see Dramatis Personae for other parts</p>

<p>I don’t think it’s fair to ask anyone to be Dol Common :S I didn’t read properly before I suggested taking the part. Also, if you haven’t noticed, we’re the only people posting on the thread.</p>
