Ha! I thought the title of this post was about all these characters put together in a single piece! And then I wondered how it would be if Jo March met Falstaff! What a jolly repartee there'd be between the two. And then if Jane was to meet Hotspur and teach him a lesson or two (like cool his pride and temper ;). Jane and Jo would be chums too!
ReplyDeleteI could make a screenplay for this piece myself :D
That would be a treat! I think you shouldn't let go of this idea, mysticgypsy.
