OK...it should have been easier to find this, but for some reason,
I had a hard time finding a copy of the play. However, I did find it,
and because it's tough to find, I'll leave you this as a link. I would copy
and paste it into a word document, change the text, and make it easier to
read. Tell me what you think of both plays.

P.S. This is the same story, but not the same version I'm going to use.

I did this show in college - one of my fondest design experiences. You should have good fun with it.
I read it out of the book; it sounds hysterical.
Wow. Thank you Mr.Bair. Now that I carried that book around Boonsboro, you post it on the blog V.V
Just kidding. It's fine ^^
Ha ha! Like Sam and I had agreed earlier; Life O' the Party is cute-funny. The Proposal is hilarious, in my eyes. They fight over such childish things!
(Was that semicolon supposed to be there? I wasn't sure, but I thought so >>')
i loved both of the plays but i think Life O' the party is the best one then again the proposal is really funny and i loved the stupid arguement
I SHALL READ!!!!!!!
@ Morgan~ The Grammar Nazi is not sure. Hmmm...~thinks~ I think it's ok there.
7 comments and the only name I recognize is jbrinke . . . :-(
Don't suppose there are any building days coming up?

ok so now my arm and shoulders are really stiff but it was still fun moving all those desks and chairs in the hallway...we should really do it again sometime....in the farthest future possible...jkjk cant wait o start working on the play
I haven't read this one but I must say I do like Chekov he makes me laugh.
What they dont know is that I own the oxen meadows tehehe.
Forgive me Cole, I don't mean to be rude, but those meadows belong to me.

You're both wrong. My father owns those meadows. He used to take me to pick flowers when I was younger.
~nod nod~
Bair!!! The Hokey Pokey Shakespearean style, check it out...
*The Hokey Pokey*
Shakespearean Style
O proud left foot, that ventures quick within
Then soon upon a backward journey lithe.
Anon, once more the gesture, then begin:
Command sinistral pedestal to writhe.
Commence thou then the fervid Hokey-Poke.
A mad gyration, hips in wanton swirl.
To spin! A wilde release from heaven’s yoke.
Blessed dervish! Surely canst go, girl.
The Hoke, the poke -- banish now thy doubt.
Verily, I say, ’tis what it’s all about.
That Hokey-Pokey just made my day, Cole.
On a funnyness scale of 1 to 10, that ranks an 11. Did you know that the Hokey Pokey started as a parody of Catholic Mass?

Wow,that was amazingly funny. Bair, you must have a Shakespearean insult to counter that.
Haha! I love the ending of The Proposal. I like it better than Life O' the Party.
I found myself liking The Proposal more than Life O` the Party. The Proposal seems to be, in my opinion, more fun to act upon than Life. Both plays are good, but I believe The Proposal is more for me, than the other. Can't wait to see how either one goes though, they both should be a blast!
cole love the Hokey Pokey and I have to say that the marriage proposal is much better in my mind than life o' party
Hey Mr. Bair, where does the audition part start for Lomov? Every time I go to find it I just can't find it on my script... :/
Tyler,
After Tchubokov (sp) exits, Lomov and Natalia have another discussion. Lomov is still upset, but Natalia keeps telling him to talk about something else. Then, they both get fired up again, argue, and Tchubokov enters again. That's it.

Hello!
What is going on tomorrow after school?
i want everyone who reads this to go to freerice.com and donate rice to children in africa. ohh... and i just luv the light mr. bair we have to program a 15 outlet for one of the lights nearer to that light because we had to use and extension cord to get it working
Cordially yours
Reinhart
Mr. Bair,
Should I stop by sometime soon-ish to get a copy of the powerpoint? I am feeling all right with what we covered today, but just to be sure...
I wonder how Freerice actually gets the money for all that. Banner ads alone probably won't do it.
