West Eighth-graders review 'Much Ado About Nothing'

Published 12:00 am Friday, September 28, 2012

I thought the play was excellent. It had more of a modern day setting whichI loved. Their acting was so brilliant that you would have thought it was real. I sat bewildered as a play I read in class was brought to life before me. i just really enjoyed it and hope to see another one soon.

On September 26th, my class and I went to go see a play called “MuchAdo About Nothing, to culminate our studying of Shakespeare. The play was very good and interesting. Everyone knew their lines and it was a grand performance. I would enjoy going to see another play at the theater!

On Wednesday September 26, 2012 the eight graders at West Rowan Middle School went to the Norvell Theater to see William Shakespeare’s play Much Ado About Nothing. We thought the play was great and very well performed. Personally I would go back and see it again,It was full of action, drama, and love.I thinks it’s now my favorite play by William Shakespeare. Anyone who reads this is strongly encouraged to go see this play.

“Much Ado About Nothing” was a very exciting and riveting play filled with eye-catching drama. The actors and actresses in the theatrical performance executed their lines flawlessly and the plot was truly exquisite.

The play, Much Ado About Nothing was an extremely good play. The actors delivered the message of the drama very well. They put a modern twist in it that I wasn’t expecting. As they performed, I could feel the emotion the characters were feeling. I would definitely recommend this to a Shakespeare fan. If you ask me, this play was much ado about FANTASTIC!

On Thursday 8th graders at West Rowan Middle School went and saw “Much Ado About Nothing” By William Shakespeare. My favorite characters were Cluaudio played by Joe Cornnaccione and Hero played by Mackenzie Stall. In my opinion, the best scene was when Claudio thought Hero was dead and decided to marry her cousin and at the wedding she took the veil off and it was Hero. They changed the play to the 1920’s so the play was more understandable. So all in all the play was great! I hope the 8th graders next year get to see one of his plays.

On Wedensday September 26, 2012 my school went to go see William Shakespeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing”. We went to the very love;y Norvell Theater. THe axctors were great for their age, except there were parts where they talked very fast and you couldn’t understand them. The play itself was set in the 1920’s instead of the Shakesspeare era, so there was a suprise there, but overall I think it was a very good experience. I hope you think about seeing “Much Ado About Nothing” by William Shakesspeare!

My class recently took a field trip to the Norvell Theater to watch WIlliam Shakespeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing.”
I thought that it was an excellently performed play as the actors portrayed the scenes well. I loved every character for who they were but my favorites included Benedick and Hero. The two of the alone included emotions that were illustrious and outstanding. They portrayed their characters very well and included a lot of emphasis. In my opinion, those two were the best and I hope that they the get the recognition that they deserve from us.
