Lego Block Theatre Presents Romeo and Juliet! (The first bit only)

In the summer of 2012 my daughter and I hit upon the idea of going one better than our previous Lego production of Macbeth where we set up and photographed a few scenes from the play. We decided to try a video version of Minifig Romeo and Juliet… and that is how **Block Theatre** came into being!

We had some difficulties in making this first video. Eileen's handling of the video was a bit shaky and I needed to work on narrating and managing the minifigs…

In this video we  went through the first few scenes of the play. We meet the characters in the play, hear the Prince proclaim the Prologue from the gatetower, watch the opening street brawl, and see old Capulet give Paris permission to woo Juliet. The video ends with the illiterate clown heading off to invite some guests to Capulet's feast…

In the last part of the video I did a bit of editing to create some of my first attempts at animation. For the most part, however, I simply used a plastic recorder cleaning rod to push the minifigs around. LOL!

Minifig wargames sounds like a lot of fun! Is it an organised thing or something you made up yourself?
