    Intimate Apparel is set in the year of 1905 however the season is not provided within the text. The passage of time can be determined throughout the play between the scene and act. The passage of time is briefly mentioned within George’s letters to Esther. For example, one can infer that the passage of time between act 1 scene 1 and scene is 2 months because within the first few lines of George’s second letter, he states “I received your letter. Its two months in the coming…” Although one could determine the time within the text, the hour of day for each scene nor act cannot be determined. Being that time is not a key feature within the text, it can be subtly represented on stage through lighting changes to represent the transition from day to night as well as clothing to represent the changes is season, if there are any changes at all. These features could help the audience understand the time of day as well as the year of the play without the overbearing features of voice overs or clocks.…

    Realist plays are often a response or a comment on an issue or topic in society, past or present. Within No sugar, it is accepted Davis is responding to the topic of racism against Indigenous Australians, treating them in a subhuman manner and “othering” them. Othering can be defined as the practise of imposing a definition on a particular group in society, most commonly a marginalised one. It consequently disempowers the chosen groups and allows the dominant group to maintain it’s power and control. With reference to the 1905 Aborigines Act, it can be determined that the process of othering happened on a political scale to the Australians Aboriginals. The act was intentionally constructed to consolidate the use of the Indigenous Australian’s…

    This weekend my classmates and I saw a play called Ludlow, in the Dusty Loo Bon Vivant Theater. The play was a very horrific, historic, and significant to Colorado itself. The play is about those who were killed in the Ludlow massacre of 1914, which was one of the most fatal and catastrophic coal wars of its time. I am not so sure that I really liked this play. This play was the first play that I had ever been too. (Newbie to the theatre!) From the start of it I really wasn’t sure how it was going to play out. One thing I didn’t understand in the play was the meaning of the earth monster, and how played into the play. Another thing that I did not understand was why the guns were…

    The play that my group and I read and presented was Behind Closed Doors, a play with the concept of, Tragedy in your past can affect your present if you do not let go and move on. The role I played was the director, which is a role in the theater, that’s very much so unappreciated. The purpose of the presentation project was to actually understand, hands on, what it takes to produce a Theatre play, and what the jobs and elements are to do so. In theatre, communication is key. Every job works in harmony with one another, and they all need each other to put on an incredible show.…

    Janet Moyles created the 'play spiral' Framework which encourages children to explore and learn new skills through structured and unstructured play. The spiral starts with practitioners letting the children explore the environment and resources through 'free play' and unstructured play, this gives them the opportunity to play and create their own rules and develop their own experiences. This is beneficial to practitioners as it allows them to observe the children and plan effectively in order to enhance play. The next part of the spiral is 'Mastery Play', this enables the children to rehearse and develop their play. They begin to enhance their play by using their imagination and beginning to understand how they think they should be using the…

    There are wires growing out of everyone’s ears. That is, to listen to music. Music is an infinite source, whether that source is for lifting up spirits, expressing underlying pain and anger, or just merely a distraction. Music from well-developed Broadway musicals to a series of beats at a party, it is something we all have done: listen to music. Some even say that music defines us but it that really true? Is our music the soundtrack of who we each are? Do what we listen to support our core values in life? To answer this I sought out the one song I listened to most, “This Kiss” by Alex Days and Carrie Hope Fletcher, and interpreted its lyrics to see if it matched with my core values of commitment, happiness, and love.…
