This year Quinten's Classical Acting class produced William Shakespeare's play
Much Ado About Nothing. The kids performed 4 times traveling to different buildings for each performance. Quinten was Leonato, the father of Hero and uncle to Beatrice. As you can see we sprayed his hair silver, and gave him wrinkles so he would look "old".
The kids take this class pretty seriously! This is Quinten and his friend Lucas who plays Benedick, lover of Beatrice. Lucas not only grew a mustache and beard but also dyed his hair dark for his role!
The whole family got involved! Kaylie and Abbie worked back stage as crew for the performances. They helped these ladies dress and undress quickly since they had more than one role.
I am so impressed with the hard work, both physical and emotional, that was put into this play. In this scene, Claudio throws Hero to the ground during what is supposed to be their wedding ceremony because he believes she has been unfaithful. Leonato, is defending his daughter.
Doesn't he look like the angry father here and she like the wounded lover?
It was a fantastic play and every single one of the actors gave it their all. I enjoyed being able to witness just how talented this group of scholars is. They are truly GENIUS!
