#hermia midsummer

This is what Act 3, scene 2 should always look like btw. Messy and a bit grubby and very funny. (I think this is from the Globe, 2013)

Hermia: I CAN’T DO IT!

Lysander, laughing: I CAN’T EITHER!

Hermia: I CAN’T FUCKING DO IT ANYMORE

Helena: WELL I’LL TELL YOU WHAT, YOU CAN EITHER GIVE UP NOW, OR YOU CAN FIGURE IT OUT. BECAUSE WE CAN’T DO IT WITHOUT YOU, AND WE KNOW YOU CAN’T DO IT WITHOUT US.

Hermia: I appreciate it,

Hermia: BUT LOOK WHAT WE’RE DEALING WITH-

Helena: Hermia-

Hermia: YOU GOTTA DRAW THE LINE SOMEWHERE!

Lysander: Hermia we gotta-

Hermia: YOU GOTTA DRAW A LINE IN THE SAND. YOU GOTTA MAKE A STATEMENT.

Hermia: YOU GOTTA LOOK INSIDE YOURSELF AND SAY “What am I willing to put up with today?”

Hermia, motioning to Demetrius: NOT FUCKING THIS.

I had some thoughts on the Shakespeare subreddit- interested to hear what anyone in here thinks!
