Seriously, of all the Shakespeare plays why do we teach high school kids the one about lovers killing themselves!? I prefer As You Like It which is a cross-dressing love story which ends happily. <em>Well, I know some people that would have a problem with the cross-dressing in a school assignment too. A few years ago a colleague told me that in class discussions his students decided that Romeo and Juliet were not really in love -- they were infatuated, immature, and impulsive. ~Tim</em> PS…I soooooo think letting high school kids read Romeo and Juliet is playing with fire.

Here in Indiana creativity seems to be undervalued. The local theaters and the schools seem to do the same plays over and over again: Footloose being one which comes to mind... <em>I am thankful that I have never seen a high school production of Footloose. ~Tim</em> What a great choice for the kids!!

I like the idea of where the story picks up, I'd see it if I was any where near you:) <em>I like the song too, but I can't tell you off the top of my head what it is.
