First, Mickey's explanation of why Shakespeare went to write plays:
Anne Hathaway: William, we have three children, and you don't have a job, you bum. Go get one.
William Shakespeare: But what can I do? I'm the son of the mayor!
Anne Hathaway: Write or something!
William Shakespeare: I will! AND IT WILL BE GOOD!
Anne Hathaway: As you like it?
William Shakespeare: I WILL USE THAT!
He then went off in a rage, muttering angrily.
Anyway, 400 years later, Mickey and Hannah went to the globe and saw As You Like It. They were also showing Romeo and Juliet, but no one would be able to hear anything over Mickey's sobs after the death of Mercutio.
As You Like It began with two brothers fighting (no! Really! He was trying to carve his initials into the moose with the electric tooth brush before his brother found him, and all the kicking and the punching and - uffda!), but it really begins to pick up with Touchstone. Who is epic. Who cares about anyone else?
We have been singing his (very creative) song: Doo doo da da doo da doo, doo da doo da ROSALIND!
No, seriously, he was awesome. We were very jealous of Audrey at the end (Touchstone marries Audrey).

Aw, you should have seen Romeo and Juliet! And Mercutio DESERVES to be cried over. I seriously think that he was reincarnated into my body.
ReplyDeleteMickey and I both agree that Touchstone is SUPER cooler than Mercutio could ever wish to be.
