Write an acrostic using the word distraction.

Read all about it here

This is an attempt to fuse the Vocal Acrostic Challenge with the titles of the Acts in the Plays of William Shakespeare.

Also check out the videos by the Reduced Shakespeare Company, the "Othello Rap" is very funny.

See if you can spot the pays where the titles came from (one I had to remove a leading "The" but the rest are all the names of Acts)
