// Romeo and Juliet // : Facebook Page Name:

Create a Facebook page for the character you will play, or if you don’t have a main part, one of the major characters in your scene.

Your page needs to have:
 * A “photo” that represents the character based on the play’s description of him or her (you can find an image or draw one)
 * A list of friends (that matches the loyalties outlined in the play)
 * At least two comments from other characters in the play that correctly allude to events/relationships in the play
 * At least two status updates from the perspective of the character you’ve selected that reflect their emotional state(s) or actions based on what’s happened in the play
 * At least 4 examples of personal detail AKA family members, relationships status, city of origin, important quotations, personal interests/activities, music, movies, groups, etc. that represent your character

Be creative, but also make sure that you use the text to create an accurate representation of the character you’ve selected.
