We finished the play on November 14, after several days of reading. Overall, I really liked the play and enjoyed the comedy between the characters. I liked the way that the plot incorporates various characters and their own conflicts (such as Faulkland and Julia), and I enjoyed the way it all came together in the end. When we began reading it, I was worried that the story would be too predictable due to its traditional story tropes, but I actually ended up really liking it. I also enjoyed the experience of reading it out loud with my peers, with a cup of tea at hand.
Now we are beginning are mock Director's Notebook and I'm looking forward to planning a production.
