Much Ado About Nothing

Picture

In the Fall of 2010, RHS Drama presented Shakespeare like you've never seen him before !  Set in the Wild West of the 1880's,  Cavalry officers are returning from war to Messina, Texas, anxious to see families, and rekindle some flames.  However, the Count’s brother, John, is a villainous varmint, and wants to stir up trouble.  But in the end, when all is uncovered,  it seems it was jus t much ado about nothing!



NOTE to all RHS Thespians and Drama Club members:

At this time, I am considering reviving the
RHS Wolfpack Playersname for our Drama Club.
If you want to have a say in how our Drama guild is rebuilt, what our "official" name will be, and what our plans are - - let me know !  That's right, go tell Mr. G, don't just talk about with your friends !

  Top 5 Pieces of Techie Advice for Actors:


5.     
Don’t talk to me.  Stay in character - - mainly by not bugging me.

4.      Don’t leave your props behind.  If I wanted to be on stage, I’d take your job.

3.      Shhhhhh.  We barely want to hear you when you have lines.

 2.  If you can see the audience, that audience can see you.  Yes, that’s a bad thing.

And . . .

1.  Don’t.  Touch.  ANYTHING !
