I made my film debut in Hong Kong when my husband Dave asked me to appear with him in a reenactment of Shakespeare’s Sonnet #138. Dave was giving his high school English class an assignment to write a modern-day version of a Shakespearean sonnet and he wanted to perform one himself as a sample for the students.
I was a little hesitant to give it a try but I think I didn’t do too badly in my first screen role. See for yourself by clicking on the photo below. There are some breaks in the film but do watch till the end where Dave does a great recitation of the sonnet.

I love it!!! I’m doing a Shakespeare Unit and might just use it as an example from two of my previous teachers! 😉
