Life’s been busy, per usual, and I apologize for not getting to business with my installment of what I would like the call The Frat Boy Diaries. I’m about to work on one of them right now and should hopefully get it up soon. Sigh … I’ve never had a problem getting it up before and now I feel as if it’s all I think about, which just makes it worse and you get so self-conscious and you’re thinking about it and it just won’t get up. It won’t get up!!!
Bitterness and woe is me mentality aside, if you manage to see this blog today and you haven’t yet seen the all female cast of Two Gentlmen of Verona, you should see it. Here are the dets (stresses are my own):
This production of Shakespeare’s Two Gentlemen of Verona will be the What You Will Shakespeare Company’s second all female performance. Being set in the 1920s this production hopes explore the traditional definitions of love in conjunction with the homoerotic tensions of the period. This era also illustrates the emergence of new found freedoms for women and the reaction of the old world thinking.
Proteus is in love with Julia. Valentine has become jaded to love until she sees Silvia. Unfortunately, Silvia is betrothed to Thurio and Sylvia’s mother, the Duke, is not happy about Valentine making eyes at her daughter. When the Duke employs Proteus to expose Valentine’s love and help Thurio win Silvia’s heart, a rift is created between Proteus and Valentine, leading to adventures in a forest with ruffians before a happy resolution. With the wrong people falling in love, banishment, a few loveable drunkards, and a scene-stealing dog named Crab, The Two Gentlemen of Verona is a wonderful tale of love, friendship, and acceptance.
