We will begin our unit of Drama and with none other than the GOAT of Drama: William Shakespeare. We will step into the "Wayback Machine" and look at some of the events and people of his time (see dates above).
With your specific topic, create a 3-5 slide presentation. This should be a five minute presentation where you tell us a little more about the time in which Shakespeare lived.
Then we are off to Ancient Rome as we look at The Tragedy of Julius Caesar. Allow me to be your tour guide of Rome, while you take us to jolly ol' Renaissance England.
"Tour Guide" Slides due tomorrow. Travel insurance, and travel brochures not included.
PS no one likes lots of words on slides. Know your notes.
