Scene
The performance should last 5-7 minutes.
You may ask extras from other groups.
One of your players is the “Chorus”.
Everyone has a proper speaking part which is big enough to be graded.
You can change the setting and update the text to your liking. As long as it remains as dynamic, dramatic, and entertaining as possible, while remaining true to Shakespeare's spirit.
