Dear Athena,
I have a problem, and I urgently need your help. I have no one else that I can talk to. I am in an awkward position at the moment because I am doing a play with fellow workmen that I have known for a while. I am the youngest of the group working a tough job to earn just enough to live on.
The problem is that I have to play a woman in the play and I am trying to grow out a beard for the first time and in doing this I expected to have a beard for the first time and keep it. Also I don’t want to play this part and my fellow workmen don’t want to play their parts either but Quince is the director and I trust his judgment but even this has me questioning him.
I would like to see that we get to play the parts we want to play so we have more fun and we put on a better performance for the duke. Also I would like quince to consider our judgment as well although he is the eldest with the most wisdom. I wish I could tell him what I feel but I am afraid I will anger him. What can I do to fix this situation?

Dear TheBeard,
ReplyDeleteI can see you have a problem. You have quite a few options here, you could just stick it out and deal with it, stand up for what you believe is right and try to get the part you want, or you could just leave the play all together (not recommended). I think the best thing that you could do in this situation is to stand up for what you think is right. If you do this there is a good chance that Quince could see where he is wrong and you might get the part you want.
Thanks for writing,
Keaton E.
