Realistic or Modern Modernizating Shakespeare's Classics?

[sunshine and whiskey]

CLOSED.

​

 

[Wishfully]

This is a really neat idea (as yours always are). So, I imagine you have roles picked out from each of the plays and the RPers create modern-day characters based on the personalities of the original Shakespearean characters? And everyone is together rather than in their separate stories?

@MidnightAnew


Thank you for words and excellent questions. Yes, I have roles to chose from but more like the main characters within each tale. And yes, you can make the personality different though but must keep at least their name. Makes sense? And yes, everyone character is going to be together and not in separate stories. Think of this roleplay as Once Upon A Time-esque. Haha. For a better sense.

 

[Semblance]

Would you expect the characters to follow the relationships from the original plays? For example, would Romeo and Juliet in the new town be required to form a relationship?

 

[sunshine and whiskey]

@Semblance


Honestly, yes. I'd like to stick to the original relationships. But of course, Juliet is not with Romeo since she is arranged to be married to someone else.

 

[Wishfully]

@IITheTypistII Ah yes, that all makes sense. Thank you for explaining! I'll keep an eye out if you find more people who are interested

@MidnightAnew


I hope you're able to join this time. I honestly miss writing with you.

 

[Semblance]

Thanks for the clarification! But yes this sounds really interesting and I would be willing to join And I loved Once Upon A Time based on the few episodes I've seen

@Semblance


Why, thank you so much. And yeah, I have a Once Upon A Time roleplay written up too. But one roleplay at a time. Haha.


I guess I should let everyone know that just because I am the GM, I am not taking the Juliet role. Hope that makes people happy.

Ahhhh why do you make such good role plays ahaha


Guess it's time for me to sharpen up my knowledge on these Shakespeare plays- maybe I should've paid more attention in English class

@Semblance


Oh, come on, my roleplays are not all that. Haha. No need to really, unless you really want to, that is. Haha.


Hm, maybe I should put the roles up top to give people a better understanding on whose allowed and who isn't? I suck at interest checks.

 

[Plutoni]

This roleplay will feature the tales of Romeo & Juliet, Hamlet, Much Ado About Nothing, Macbeth & The Taming of the Shrew.

GREETINGS

yeah I think that would help


I usually put what I would normally put in the overview of the roleplay into the interest check- then I list out all the possible roles and state what kind of roleplay it is/what type of roleplayer I'm looking for

@Macbeth


-Bows.- I am forever at your service. Haha. How weird is that, hun?


@Semblance


I think I might start doing that. Give me a sec to update the original post.

Thankee, most loyal subject And yes, one weird coincidence indeed~

@MidnightAnew @Semblance @Macbeth


I've updated the front page of the original post. I wonder what role @Macbeth is going to try and claim. Haha.

Romeo, of course. What else would you possibly expect~?

 

[sunshine and whiskey]

@Macbeth


Haha. That's the role I had in mind that you would try to claim. I didn't think anything different.

 

[Semblance]

I'm trying to decide between Juliet and Lady Macbeth- their personalities are completely different ahaha

 

[Plutoni]

I know which character I would go for (Yeah, I'm not even going to bother with a hint here), but Hamlet does look a little tempting.. Myeh. I'm not completely certain if I'm joining yet, I've just signed myself up for several good-looking RPs recently and I'm not sure if I'll have time...


Still, I couldn't resist just popping in to say hello

 

[sunshine and whiskey]

@Semblance


-Pushes you towards the name Juliet.- Haha.


@Macbeth


Ah. That's fine. If you have the time, I'd love to have you along. :3

 

[Plutoni]

I'd love to join in with this~! Looks amazing 0w0 I just don't want it coming to having to drop out of something just because I've gone over my max number of ongoing RPs.


I'm happy to wait and lurk for a bit :3

 

[sunshine and whiskey]

@Macbeth


Lurk away, Macbeth!


 
Anybody else care to lurk around this thread?

 

[Flack]

Yes, yes I would.
