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.

    If I had to choose which one I liked better I would probably have to say the movie was better. I think this only because you could watch what was going on instead of having to imagine everything. The movie was better also because it helped show you what all was going on, and it helped you pay attention to what was going on. I liked the play all around though because it was something that interested me and kept me wanting to see what happened next. Plays are my favorite types of literature because there is a lot of action and there are a lot more characters in a play. This play was a good play and I enjoyed reading it and listening to it. Overall this play was a very well written play with a good message and it was very interesting. It was also a true story which also made it…

    "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…

    They play was quite an interesting play with its use of comedy and tragedy. The actors did a terrific job on portraying the characters. The set was small so it was much easier to see their reactions. The introduction to the play was pretty unique with those people in tight pants and glitter all over everybody in the lobby. They never broke character no matter what went on in the lobby. Later they used as prompts on stage which was pretty interesting because at times I was so into the play I forgot they were there acting as a car or a door.…

    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.…

    Seminar Play Analysis

    • 697 Words
    • 3 Pages

    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.…

    The style in which the play was performed was presentational although there are some parts of realism because situations like these actually do happen. The actors played multiple characters and morphed into each one. The morphing shows visible changes of character. They had great versatility of characters and played each one with passion for the role. The facial expressions they used seemed to add to the way they acted and made us, as an audience believe their roles much more. Other presentational aspects include the use of direct address and poetic narration throughout the performance.…

    HONK! Play Critique

    • 617 Words
    • 3 Pages

    To be completely honest, I would have to say that majority of the acting was very mediocre. I know it wasn’t supposed to be like something off of Broadway but I expected a lot more, and I felt like only a couple of actors came through with that. The acting was not terrible, but it wasn’t spectacular either. I felt like some characters were not putting their all into their characters. I also felt like some people should not have been casted into the roles they had received. Many times a background character would outshine a main character during the performance. Pertaining to the acting, I think that the fact that it was a musical added more stress to the actors which consequently could have placed a strain on their acting abilities. This is because they were most likely more concerned with their vocals. Something I did like in their acting was the fact that they used little children, I found that very adorable.…

    The piece was extremely clever how they only used four actors during the entire show. This brings me onto costumes. The costumes in this production were very bare and essential for quick changes while on stage, and this gave the play a comic feel because they changed on the stage in front of the audience. Many times the costume was a plain suit and the actors played different characters by simplistically putting so a hat, coat or a prop. I enjoyed this because it helped me associate different characters with the little bit of costume they had.…

    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.…

    I found the timing of this production was just right; however I thought the end of the play was somewhat dragged on, and could have ended earlier than it did. Although the homosexual scenes were rather disturbing, I would have to say they were my favourite scenes, because it was humorous, and extremely clever. The use of shadow puppets was extraordinary, and…
