Thoughts During MacBeth

Thursday Performance:
I need to resay my lines.
 Resay them, resay them.
What part are we up to, okay Duncan just died. We are almost there.
I can’t believe this is happening right now.
Why am I not nervous anymore?
Holy… that knocking is loud, wait, already. I’m going to be up there soon,
Okay, get into position. One…Two…Three…
“Here’s a knocking indeed…” wow, that was loud, keep going…
“If a man were Porter of hell gate, he should have the old turning of the key.”
(The rest of the time I just said my lines without thinking)
“Knock Knock, Who’s There?”
“Faith here’s an equivocator, that could lie on both scales against either scale”
Oh God I missed a line, I say it with the English Tailor.
(I’m going to skip to the English Tailor paragraph)
“Knock Knock, Who’s There?”
“In the, other devil’s name…” oh good job, I hope no one noticed that.
(Skip to when MacDuff comes in)
I did good, I think I did good, I got some laughs, I just hope some people find my monologue funny.
(Close to the end of my monologue)
“It makes him STAND TO, and not stand to.” What people laughed, I can’t believe it, I love this part.



            Saturday Performance:
This will be just like Thursday, just keep saying your lines, you don’t want to mess up like last time.
Okay, now run
“Here’s a knocking indeed…” wow, that was louder than last time
Let’s keep going, get on stage like a lazy couch potato.
(Skip to Equivocator paragraph)
Okay, I didn’t miss my line like last time,
But what’s the next line, holy shit , no, no no no…
Improvise, IMPROVISE!
“Here’s an Equivocator…”
“He swore on both scales against either scale”
“He committed treason enough for God’s sake yet could not equivocate to Heaven!”
Oh thank God, that was a good save
(Skip to big monologue)
“It makes him STAND TO, and not stand to.” Do the hand motion                                                (only people there would understand)
WOW, that made people laugh hysterically, this is too good…
Just don’t laugh with them, don’t laugh.


(P.S. Kids of 8T1, You Were Awesome)
