🎭 Julia as Sebastian: Alas, how love can trifle with itself!
— Julia, Two Gentlemen of Verona 4-4
[ACTING TIPS]
Julia, disguised as Sebastian, has ben talking with Silvia. Silvia showed her sympathy toward Julia, saying “I understand how you love her.”
With that comment, Julia realizes how good a person Silvia is. But she is her rival. And she says this after Silvia left here.
In The Twelfth Night, Viola disguised as Cesario also has sympathy toward Olivia, her rival.
Very similar situation.
Since this is a soliloquy, I don’t have to hide anything. I will speak my real and true feeling to share with my audience since they are my other self.
