Madam! Juliet! How are you sleeping right now? HOW are you on thy bed and NOT on cloud nine for the second time? Thy wedding is soon, why are you not getting ready?

I just hope this will make your family happy even though I know you might be drowning in an ocean of grief.
Juliet? Juliet? Why are you not breathing? Juliet! No, No, NO This can’t be…
Please, Juliet, come back to me. I lost my dearest Susan and I can’t go through this again Looks like you poisoned yourself.

I should have thought that this was going to end badly the moment Juliet tied the knot with Romeo. Maybe this was supposed to happen, maybe this was how it was supposed to end (Pause) What if this is all my fault? What if I killed my own Juliet? Were my words like a knife that stabbed through your heart? No, that can’t be! I couldn’t have done this. I can’t control what’s going through her head, I can’t make her do anything, she’s as stubborn as a

    The fact that I knew that only made me even angrier, and when I went on stage I snapped. As an actor you usually have to be thinking of four or five things at once like, am I standing in my light, what is my next line, when do I need to move, do I have my props I’m supposed to, and so on.
