The Merchant of Venice
I had so much fun going to this play. The actors did an amazing job of acting out Shakespeare's work and after awhile you forgot that they were even speaking Shakespeare's poetry because you were so enraptured by the story and the acting. We got a chance to sit on the stage while the actors performed and were practically in the story itself. The cast did not use a lot of props or makeup and often played more that one part but as an audience you didn't even realize it because of how intense everything was. I would highly recommend going to one of these in the future.

It was so much fun! I loved how the actors played off of the audience, they were so encouraged when we were laughing....and I couldn't stop laughing at particular parts....HA! But I definatly agree with Hannah, if anyone gets a chance to go, DO IT!
