I'm diving into my play about Achilles, and doing some major editing. This is the most fun part, by the way. I'm also filling in a lot of the blanks, particularly the cheers from the cheerleader chorus. I have a bunch of “classic” cheers that I'm altering with Iliad flavor. It's slow going, but great fun. Want an example? Of course you do…
I found this cheer:
"Stronger than steel
Hotter than the sun;
(Player name) won't stop,
'til he gets the job done!”
And came up with this:
"Blacker than night,
Toxic and full of hate;
Achilles’ rage won't end,
'til his love is taken by fate.”
