For this artistic community response‚ I will write about my experience with the play “The Octaroon” and how it relates to me as an artist. The main takeaways that I can draw form “The Octaroon” are that you should not be afraid to tackle real world issues or even playing with the form or style that you ae dealing with. The play had started out being playful in its delivery and overall tone‚ but then had sudden shifts in change. It could become dead serious and just as quickly take such serious matters

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

Seminar Review 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
