Mrs. Hale Charecter Analysis
Children of Eden Critique Children of Eden, is a casual linear theatrical musical that I must say took my breath away. I honestly expected not to be that at awe. Children of Eden consisted of two Acts. Act I held the story of Adam and Eve and Act II held the story of Noah’s Ark. This play was held at the Laidlaw Performance Arts building at University of South Alabama. I attended the show during the open night premier. Here, is where I learned that my professor Karen Baker was the director and that some of my very own friends were present in the show. Act I, the story of Adam and Eve was a phenomenal piece that was truly effective emotionally and comprehensibly. Act II also had an impact on emotion as well, but not as strongly as the Adam and Eve story. The story worked out excellent for I felt it blended the stories to where everybody can understand because the bible can be very confusing. Both acts drew the crowd’s attention because the actors were so passionate in their roles, you knew the play was fake, but you couldn’t help but to get drawn into certain scenes that touched you emotionally. The actual script of the play I felt was amazing. It added some humor so the crowd was able to smile throughout some parts of the play then to feel like they were watching an soap opera. My reactions to the characters were amazed and astounding! I couldn’t believe that most of them could really sing, and that they didn’t seem to come off as amateurs to the stage.

    "The Charmer" written by Budge Wilson is a short story about a family that finds misfortune and conflicts in their lives. Conflict is most predominant which directly affects all members in the family. This story is remarkable in the sense of loss, morality and love, it is the story of how a young girl; Winifred comes to realize that her brother is nothing more than a charmer. Budge Wilson portrays Zachary's irresponsible behaviour to create emotional conflict between the family. Zack's mother and sisters love him dearly especially Winifred is no exception; the love for Zack is shown by the extraction. In addition, Zachary's true colours proves himself to be a whole different person. Furthermore, an example from the story that shows how Zachary avoids his mischievous behaviour on page 102, "Then my mother would laugh, we’d all laugh, and Mom would mix up the batter for the new cake, a smile playing upon her lips. “Go ahead!” she’d say, with a fake sigh. “Have another piece. You certainly are the limit!” (Wilson,102). This quote shows from this young age Zack is taught that he could do something knowing he should not stand a very good chance of getting away with it. It demonstrates that although Zack's behaviour is inadequate, the lack of discipline from his parents flares a level of irresponsibility and the struggle affects Zack…

    Marriage of Bette and Boo

    • 718 Words

    1. The Marriage of Better and Boo was interesting, what I found interesting was that it definitely got darker as the play progressed making it almost more of a dramatic piece then a comedic. I definitely liked how they set the show, under a circus tent. Because I feel that that it fit, because chaos and craziness can be found under a tent, and all sorts of characters, which how these two families ended up relating to each other. Each had their own problems and where very crazy. Bette’s family had a father that couldn’t speak, to a sister who felt as if she always did something wrong, while Boo had a mother who was airheaded, or wanted you to believe that, and a father who was addicted to drinking. Together these two families create chaos. Something that was interesting that didn’t jump out at me as loving it, but I accepted it, was the only surviving son, narrating the whole story, and the events jumping from past to present, to future. It was sad to find out, that Bette and Boo left each other half way through the play, but they didn’t tell us why. It gave the play a twist that was fun to watch.…

    The 39 Steps Analysis

    • 932 Words
    • 4 Pages

    The details used to produce this play were by far genius. The three main parts of the production involved lighting, costumes, and Sets and Props. The way he used the lighting in the play was marvelous because lighting can change the whole understanding of a scene. I thought the lighting was on cue with every aspect of the play. The costumes of the play were my favorite part of the production because it really told the story. The clothes the character wore told you a lot about the characters in the play. I thought it was remarkable how it was only four actors but multiple characters so it made the costume production that much harder. Sets and Props were significant because it made you get a clear view of the setting, time period, and much more. In every scene the producer did an astonishing job with the props because they all were there for a purpose. It was something unique in every scene to make play stand out even more. Overall, The 39 steps was a very effective production because the use of lighting, costumes, and Sets and…

    Jersey Boys Play

    • 2 Pages

    This Broadway play has been around for a long time. It captured people’s attention from the clothes they wore, to the beautiful melody from Frankie Valli. This play is set in the 1960’s; it is based on Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. Through a musical it talks about their lives, where they grew up, and the struggles they went through to get to fame. They came from nothing, living in a poor area, in a little shack house, to fame and wealth. Their sweet voices took them far in life, accomplishing many of their goals, to scoring not one but a couple hit songs like, “Sherry,” “Big Girl’s don’t cry,” “Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You,” “Oh What a Night,” and so on. When I first walked in I didn’t know what to expect, except hearing how good this play was. My thoughts were a boring play to sit through and get it over with but it captured my eyes from the moment they started singing. Their unique voices were so calm, sweet and inviting that you wanted to just listen or sing along but never was there a dull moment. Not only was the music capturing but the clothes and the colorful set opened up your eyes. They chose the right setting, the perfect performers to make this show a phenomenon. Looking at everyone’s faces how they were enjoying themselves and people just not taking their eyes off the set really showed you that this performance was a hit. Seeing a group accomplish so much from where they came from sets the right message to those who are in the same situation. Not only is this an amazing show but also an inspirational story to many who do not have the money to go far with their gifts but can work hard and still accomplish what they did. Showing that life is not all about money but that you can still do what you love if you follow your dream and work your way…

    The Chesapeake College theater department performed “The Bacchae,” an ancient greek tragedy, during the final two weeks of October. The actors put on a show filled with music, dance, and death. Overall, the talented actors brought life to the early B.C. drama, but the antiquated, choppy dialogue left the play to only be enjoyed in moments.…

    Seminar Play Analysis

    On November 20th I went to the Black Box theatre to see the play Seminar. It was a small production, and there were only five actors. Going into the play, I had no idea what to expect. I had heard the play was a bit raunchy, with explicit dialogue and provocative scenes. The play started out with four actors portraying college graduate writers. I loved how realistic the setting was; it really looked like somebody’s real apartment. The actors did very well portraying emotion, and every thing they did and said I could relate to. At one point, a girl was eating real ice cream and complaining on the couch to her friend. I thought it was funny how every girl could relate to that scene. I also liked that the actor had no problem devouring ice cream on top of memorizing her lines and acting at the same time. I would find it hard not to focus on anything other than the delicious taste of the ice cream.…

    At last, work has ended for the day and I decide to unwind with a latte. I am settled at a table in my local coffee shop enjoying the view out of the window on the second floor. As I was gazing out the window, I hadn’t realized that two other people are sitting down next to me. To my surprise, I look up and see Margaret Sanger and FDR side by side across from me. I almost spit out my latte in shock! They ask me how I am doing, and I start to explain to them how I am working on an ideal society project for college. I tell them how my group had decided on a socialist government with high taxes, a strong education system, with many exports like fruit and jewelry. Our country would be located on an island rich in minerals, which we would use for…

    They all acted like 13 year olds the entire time, they got excited like that age does and looked like that age. They also seemed very close, they all talked like they were best friends and knew each other for quite some time. Their voices were very clear and loud, because I could hear them, even if the audience was clapping or even whooping. The actual lines were very smooth with each other, none of it seemed abrupt or too early. Talking about clear lines, Ava Duval (Star) didn’t have any trouble with her lines, and was very connected with her body movements.…
