*shag*

This is me loving you.

*shag*

You're quite the enthusiastic one, aren't you?

If one can not shag enthusiastically, what does one have?

Boredom, frailty, a death that comes before death...

Oh, you meant that rhetorically.

We all need something to live for moppet.

I see your "Much Ado" and raise you a "Hamlet."

Hamlet: Angel
Laertes: Spike
Polonius: Snyder
Ophelia: Buffy
King Claudius: Ethan Rayne
Queen Gertrude: Joyce
Horatio: Wesley
Rosencrantz: Andrew
Guildenstern: Jonathan
Ghost: Giles
Marcellus: Gunn
Gravedigger: Holden

Ye gads, I wish I was familiar enough with that particular play to write it...

[identity profile] colalola.livejournal.com 2004-04-06 11:07 am (UTC)(link)
Spike and Angel would also be fun to cast if one decided to write Rosencrantz & Guidenstern are dead.

Their bickering would make it quite fun.

I like most of these, but I would cast

Buffy as Hamlet
Willow as Horatio
Early Wes as Polonius
Angel as Ophelia
and maybe Faith as Fortinbras

[identity profile] airawyn.livejournal.com 2004-04-06 11:41 am (UTC)(link)
No, if Angel's Ophelia, then Wes is Laertes. :)

I dunno. I'm kind of fond of the broodsome one getting it. Angel, The Prince of Denmark.

Has a ring to it.

Buffy can be plenty broody. Besides, who's more likely to spend the better part of a four-hour play angsting over whether or not to kill an enemy?

[identity profile] airawyn.livejournal.com 2004-04-06 12:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Ok, then. Willow as Hamlet, Buffy as the Ghost, Faith as Claudius, Angel as Gertrude, Tara as Ophelia, Dawn as Laertes...

[identity profile] jetpack-monkey.livejournal.com 2004-04-06 12:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Do you know how many different casts of Hamlet we could come up with?

We could do the all Wolfram and Hart royalty edition!

Lindsey as Hamlet!
Holland as Ghost!
Lilah as Gertrude!
Darla as Ophelia!

The excitement does abound.

Holy cats! I don't know why I didn't see it before:

The Mayor as the King
Faith as Gertrude
Wes as the Ghost
Darla as Laertes
Dru as Ophelia

But who the devil is Polonius???

Lorne. Lorne is Polonius, hands down. ;)

Brilliant, man.

We are a strange, strange lot...
