Edmund and Cleopatra is a play that relates one of the works of William Shakespeare. The play has interpreted by two actors, one man who played Edmund and one woman who played Cleopatra.
It began when Edmund Shakespeare appeared in scene drunk and speaking about how wonderful was the city of Egypt.
Suddenly, also, appeared in scene a beautiful young woman who confused Edmund with his brother William Shakespeare, and she said him if he could do a play to her because she said to be a Cleopatra’s descendent.
Edmund tried to explain her that he isn´t who she believes, but she didn´t leave him speak. Edmund was preparing the play when he remembered that his brother had wrote a similar play so, he decided to take the play and give it to the young woman.
So, the following days Cleopatra starts to visit Edmund , and Edmund ask her to pay for the “realized work”. Then, they start reading the play and Cleo simulate her suicide when she is bitten by a snake. Edmund runs to searching a doctor and when Cleo is alone she starts to laugh and leaves with the book in her hands without having paid Edmund as she had promised.
In our opinion, the actors were very good because they got to make us smile for every time. Moreover, they took us like a volunteers for interpret some parts. These volunteers enjoyed acting and they did it very good.
In the other hand, costumes were simple but these represented the essence of the time. Furthermore, only we needed the actors for put in the play.
As for the scenery, we could say that it wasn´t suitable, but we understand that the play is low cost.
The play makes us feel happy and we enjoy it. We think that this is a great form to learn English because the actors spoke very clearly and not very fast, but perhaps the language that they used weren’t very common.
On the whole, the play was sensational, the actors brilliants and the public was dedicated to it.
