So today I went to go see my school's eighth grade production of Macbeth by Shakespeare.  Of course Sam had to be in it.  And Keith, the guy that made me have an emotional breakdown in the middle of lunch, that I talked about awhile ago.

Guess what my two favorite scenes were?

When Sam, who played Macduff, went into an insane frenzy and almost killed his real-life girlfriend (it was acting, don't worry) with a knife; and when Keith, who played Banquo, was stabbed to death.

Yeah.

And Sam broke character multiple times...

The first time he was looking directly at me and he smirked at the end of the first scene where he actually talked, which was a pretty serious scene.

The second time was when he was walking onto the stage and bumped into the wall.

The third time was when his real-life girlfriend was picking up a tree branch and it caught onto another tree branch, which later fell.

And he wore his Sperrys the entire show.

Also, in the last scene, when Macduff was killing Macbeth, Sam broke out the martial arts kick.

KA-POW!

So yeah, that was hilarious.
