Shakespearean Insult Generator
We were given a list of Shakespearian Adjectives and insults. We had to read through the list and choose 3 from each column and learn it off by heart. We then had to go around the room and say them to different people in the class. We tried out different volumes, stress words, gestures, body language and speeds of saying the words. This helped us understand and learn some of the language used in the play a bit more in a fun way and start to think about different voices and ways to say our lines. This exercise may also help a lot for the fight scene between Helena and Hermia as they say similar insults in the scene. This taught us different ways to accentuate those lines and make them more interesting/effective. Therefore, helping us to make that scene better.
