Romeo and Juliet

Yesterday the students here worked very hard all day on Romeo and Juliet. All that's left now is some splatter-covering, Romeo's sword and we need paint their hands.


On top you can see (hopefully) the almost-not-quite finished cut-out. Below there are two students posing with the couple (Yes, Romeo is a girl. But hey, back then Juliet would have been a boy so whatever.)



And here is a close-up of Juliet's dress. We did a diamond pattern with dark purple flowers and added rhinestones for extra pzazz.



“This bud of love, by summer's ripening breath, 

May prove a beauteous flower when next we meet.

Good night, good night! as sweet repose and rest 

Come to thy heart as that within my breast.”

Juliet, Romeo and Juliet, Act II, Scene II
