    1. Each Act takes happens in the same place. The entire play takes place in the jury room of a New York City court of law in 1957 during a very hot summer afternoon. It is a large, dull, minimalistic room with three windows in the brick wall which the skyline of New York City can be seen. There is also a wash room and lavatory off the jury room. There is a large, scarred table in the centre with twelve chairs around it. There are pencils pads and an ashtray on the table. There is also a water cooler in the room with plastic cups. The dullness of the room may signify and provide a mood for the act and is evident in the interactions between the jurors.

    The play is set in the 1929 in Western Australia, in a small settlement called Moore River. The story behind the play is about an aboriginal family and how they work to gain their purpose and fight to survive. This is well characterised and through it's characters we are able to see the theme to the play that one must have ones' purpose in order to survive. Characters like Jimmy Munday and Joe represent the stronger aboriginal, the side that stands up to the white man, the side that don't step back but take a few steps forward. Their courage and willingness to gain their purpose is passed on to the other aboriginal people throughout the play and help bring the aboriginal closer.…

    In Salem, the government is a Theocracy. What this portrays right away is that Salem is a town of very religious and pure peoples. It was noticed that some people were not as pure as they were supposed to be. The play starts off with Betty lying down, unconscious. Betty is accused to be a victim of witchcraft, which in those days meant death. John Hale is very well known for his expertise on witchcraft, so he is called down to view this situation. Parris also is losing control against his niece because he found her, his daughter, and a few other girls dancing in the forest the in the night. Parris also saw someone naked running around when they were dancing, whom he figured to be Betty or Abigail, his niece. I found it interesting that they were dancing with their slave considering she was not accepted in the this period of time.…
