At school our teacher gave us some acts from Romeo and Juliet to do. And we have to design costumes, the scenery and everything. And we are in a horrible crisis of time, since some of us were ill and we couldn't work on it. The problem with the costumes is resolved but the scenery...we only have 2 big pieces of 'paper' well something thicker that it's painted and that's all...The 2 acts we have are on a street (Benvolio and Mercutio) and one in Lorentzo's home (he's the priest). God pls help us i am all cryed out we dunno what to do! What to make...

Why bother with the scenery? Tell your teacher & classmates that in Shakespeare's time there was actually no scenery - which is true! (They didn't even have curtains back then in the theaters.) So you smartly save time (heh-heh!), while showing off with you knowledge of medieval English theater. You can say that you want the class to pay attention to the acting, not the fancy stuff like scenery - sounds cool and convincing, huh? And you don't have to do it! :)

Well to capitolize on the previous answer, bettter draw an Elizabethan stage, you can find drawings of them everywhere, just enter Stage of Globe Theatre into your search engine. Copy it, you have the set for the entire play of R & J.
