Joseph’s autobiography under the statue of Shakespeare

As a famous American Broadway director, Joseph has directed many Shakespeare's classic plays around the world. Now, as a teacher at Peking University, he works tirelessly to rehearse various plays for children and uses drama to influence their lives.

This play is based on Joseph's own experience, telling a sincere, sad but humorous story. A six-year-old boy who boarded in a British boys' w88 casino unfortunately encountered the military-style Shakespeare education of Principal Revere. From the first time he made a fool of himself by reciting the complete works of Shakespeare, he developed resentment and fear towards the principal, and then slowly entered his Shakespeare world: poetry, passion, regret, and precipitation⋯⋯The play of more than an hour condensed Revel's life. The Shakespeare imprint imbues the pain and misfortune of life with poetry and the power of nirvana, and passes it on from generation to generation.

To be or not to be ,that is a question . Whether its nobler in the wind to suffer⋯⋯" This passage set off the climax of the whole play. When poor little Tom shook his head from side to side and tried his best to bite out this passage word by word, many people at the scene shed tears. His eyes were awakened and deep, as if he could travel through time and space to see Shakespeare, who was regarded as a god by his father.

Joseph plays one role in the play4The characters are sometimes a six-year-old boy, sometimes a kind father, sometimes an alcoholic principal, and sometimes a mentally retarded son of the principal. In the dialogue between "I" and my father, the mature man and the little boy switched freely, making the audience laugh.

After the play ended, the audience burst into endless applause. During the question and answer session, Joseph gave detailed answers to some questions raised by the students.
