Dear Friend,
This week I went to see Much Ado About Nothing, the play. This play was very interesting and very enjoyable. The props, actors/actresses, and etc. were all very appropriate. This play was nothing that I expected it to be.
The thing that was most interesting for me was the setting. The stage that the actors and actresses performed on was circular. It wasn't the typical stage that we're all use to seeing. It was a different vibe for me. Everything was seen a lot more clearly that way. The props were also very simple. The tables were the main prop, but the actors and actresses were very interactive with the tables. For example Beatrice would hide under the table when Hero and her friends were talking about how Benedict was in love with Beatrice. The same with Benedict, but he hid behind a piano and was interactive with the audience.
The actors in this play were all very enthusiastic. Whenever one of them said their lives, there was a lot of emotion and feelings. The actors all did a great job emoting how they felt with gestures and not one of them was boring. Whenever the spotlight was on one actor, all the other actors would interact with each other. Not one of them stopped what they were doing. All of the actors stayed in character, which was also another good feature.
I enjoyed seeing this production and it was very enjoyable to watch. My favorite part was the shadowing part of what happened in Hero's room. It was very original and unlike many plays I've seen. If I saw this production again, I would understand a lot more and I would enjoy it a lot more as well.
