1- Set design- I think set design was very basic. I honestly did not like it. I wished if it

was more professional than that. For example the idea of tall grass was not quite

good because I think sometime the grass hampered the actors scenes. (Under

any condition, I feel same way nothing changes, at the same place,.)

2- Lighting- In my opinion, the lighting was not that good because it could reflect

the actors moods or even the climate/atmosphere. Probably the good thing is

the Idea of the sun, it was not that strong but it played a good factor to show

they were at night or morning (at specific moment of scene).

3- Costume/makeup Design- In general the actors wore a good costume which

reflects their roles on the show. Actually, I was not convinced by the jewelry that

women were worn at the dancing scene. Because I think it is modern jewelry

which it does not reflect that era. I think the actors dressed a good Muscovites

clothes when the ladies wore the masks ( I totally could not differentiate

between the actors in that moment ).

4- Sound Design-for the whole show, the sound design was not effect. It was really

poor. The guitar seemed a new brand, that not from that era.

5- The language- I think the language in this show was little bit difficult to

understand especially for non-native. I struggle to follow the actors in some

dramatic structures or conflicts. In addition they were too fast with the old

accent.

6- De Armado- the best character I found in the show I think his sense of humor

adds lots for the show, I was waiting for his role. For example when he told

Jaquenetta that he loves her. And also at the end of the show when he fought

with Costard.

7- Seating (stage) - it was Proscenium Theatre - I think the seats were close enough

to hear and see everything clearly.

8- When lords read the letters- in my opinion, I think no one reads such a secret

and important thing loudly, the lords express their loves and expose themselves.

I thing something else should have happened to be more realistic.

9- At the scene when the princess knows that her father is dead, I think that

moment should be more emotional than I saw. She did not give enough reaction

when someone receive a news that your father dead.

10- There were a lot of interact with the audiences in this show that I find it good

and bad. It is actually good because it is funny, but sometime I dont like it

because I was afraid to be asked for something that I could not answer.
