Why is the scene with peter and the musicians in Romeo and Juliet?
It's called comic relief. Shakespeare almost always gave a bit for the comedian and it was always at a very dark part of the play, whether the comedian was a drunken porter, a gravedigger, or, as here, a foolish servant. It tended to relieve the tension a bit for a short while, making it easier to take the misery that follows. Othello has no comic relief and it is very difficult and dark.

Absolutely! If you are in a school band, check out the upperclassmen and watch how they act. Most likely if you watch them at a school concert, you will notice that they don't talk in between songs, and they don't act goofy. They show leadership to their section and are dedicated to practice and effort and making themselves the best musicians they can be. Please ignore the strikethrough...
