This is the beginning of my 15th year teaching at Victor Valley High School and my 12th year as the drama director. Without a doubt, directing Macbeth, by Shakespeare is the most challenging thing I have ever done. In addition to staging the show, I am finding that I also have to teach the students word by word what they are saying. Just like anything though, the challenge is thrilling and I think that because everything has to be discussed in such great detail that this will turn out to be a great show. If the production turns out as dramatic and disturbing as the shirts (see photo), I will be ecstatic! If you have noticed that the frequency of the blogs has changed drastically, it's because of good old Shakespeare- and I don't mean our dog!
