Wash: Little River just gets more colorful by the moment. What'll she do next? Zoe: Either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair. It's a toss-up. Wash: I hope she does the soup thing. It's always a hoot, and we don't all die from it.

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness  

Closed Threads

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I know some people here HATE Luhrmann, but using his R+J in conjunction with reading the play made it so much easier and fun for my students. Especially since most of my students were Latino.

I also used Branaugh's Hamlet (parts of it, it is so long for a classroom viewing) and they like the Opelia scenes, the ghost scenes, and the swordfight a lot.

Lawrence Fishburne's Othello, which I just LURVE. AlthoughI got tired of hearing "Hey, it's that guy from The Matrix!" I always think of him as "Gina Torres' husband."

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

It's Quine the chewy play, and not so simple as to just be anti-war.

Typo or extremely clever reference? Quine on Brecht would make for an interesting conversation.

I just remember him as Larry Fishburne from She's Gotta Have It.

You could have got away with claiming genius instead.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

I think all other drama is undertaught.

amych is my hero!

I love that I get to expose my students to so many different kinds of theatre. The school just keeps trying to force me into a box that I'm not comfortable with.

Here we are getting into a discussion that is perfect for me and I have to go do some things with DH. Sigh...such is my life.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

What blew my mind was seeing Fishburne in Apocalypse Now and realizing it was him.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

"Elements of Persuasion" would make a good Regency romance title. Someone should use it.

I'd read that.

And, I will add, my students get the chance to read Moliere (I teach him to my Intro to Drama babies) as well as Lorca, Churchill, Ibsen, and more. Last year some of my students wanted to give Torvald a "smack down" when we read the final scene of "Dolls House".

Now I have to run. Stupid errands.
