you are going to pick one name.O When we are done, you will have 90

seconds to trade with a classmate if you would like to.

RecordO When I call your name, tell me what

theatre legend you have.O While I am doing this, the legends

worksheet will be passed out.

Your projectO You will look up the person you have

been assigned online or in Ms. Horn’s personal drama library after school.
