Sophomore Kate Sheley sits on a couch in her Bernardo costume in front of the set for the fall play, “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged).” The costumes of the play are based on traditional brown and green Shakespearian costumes with a twist. “It’s such a wack show,” Sheley said. “So putting on random colored tights is kind of the aspect of bringing a pop of color to the show.”

  • Sophomore Kate Sheley sits on a couch in her Bernardo costume in front of the set for the fall play, “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged).” The costumes of the play are based on traditional brown and green Shakespearian costumes with a twist. “It’s such a wack show,” Sheley said. “So putting on random colored tights is kind of the aspect of bringing a pop of color to the show.”

  • Juliet Capulet, played by senior Kaden Missey, dies alongside Romeo. The play follows kids trying to put on all of Shakespeare’s works but failing miserably instead. “[By playing women in dresses] I’m wearing the comedic aspect of the play,” Missey said.

  • The Moor of Venice in “Othello,” played by senior Josh Goldman, points to a random audience member as he says his lines. His character wears a boat that dangles from his neck because he thought that “Moor” meant a place to tie up boats. “It’s just very random that I have boats around my neck,” Goldman said.

  • King Henry VIII, played by sophomore Ella Braig, cuts off his wife’s head, played by senior Alice Valentino, in the football game scene. The crown in Braig’s hand represents a football. “The crown has many purposes but it is used as a football in this scene,” Braig said.

  • Senior Michael Haybron poses for a photo in the green room back stage. Everyone plays different roles depending on the play they are attempting, and one of the roles Haybron plays is Romeo. “Right now [the wig] just looks awful,” Haybron said. “But it’s very significant because it adds a lot [to the] comedy [of the play].”

  • It’s the end of Romeo and Juliet and senior Kalina Weber, who narrates, introduces “Titus Andronicus.” Their cos- tumes are unique to their characters and to the person in them. “We each got to choose how we wanted to put [them] together and how they would match,” Weber said.
