Looking for shakespeare material???


Here is a wonderful site.

http://www.stagemilk.com/shakespeare-scenes/


It has some wonderful scenes by male/female, male/male, and female/female


It lists the scenes and provides the script and if you scroll to the bottom of the script there is a sentences or two 

Summarizing the scene.    

It doesn't have everything, but it is a great place to start.   


Remember everyone has to have a monologue and a scene.   

(With the exception of McKenna, Meredith, Lindsey  who are dancing and Mitch who is doing a violin minstrel solo). These four will do a scene or mono in addition to their solo or dance.  

Monologues are 2 to 4 minutes
Scenes are 3 to 5

Be sure to take these limits into account before memorizing .....PRACTICALLY EVERYTHING WILL NEED TO BE CUT DOWN.   So look for extraneous stuff that you can do without.   Just get to the meat of the scene or monologue
