The characterization of the girl and the good girls is a good conflict they way they start it is good, and how they change the mood of the story…
How does Willy Russell use dichotomies to tell the story in “Blood Brothers” and create drama…
It provides contrast to a meaningful play with random anecdotes, funny scenes, and a nonsensical storyline overall. The fact that this occurrence is nearly impossible added to the experience. The play was very well executed by the cast and staff of it at Northview High School. The characters were well chosen and knew what they were doing. Their facial expressions, tone, and dialogue were on point to deliver a marvelous performance. The characters’ lines were well spoken and added a lot of humor to the play. Although the play was written by Camoletti himself, it could not have been pulled off any better than was by this cast and team. It is no doubt that Robert fell in love with Gretchen- they are both crazy as…
In this story in particular, the characters leave you speechless with their actions. This story has a flow due to how the characters talk. They talk with improper grammar, but that’s what makes it unique.”Ain’t nothing wrong with that is it?” Raheem and the narrator have a lot of mini fights, because Raheem is skipping school and “checking” out other girls. “His eyes crawl over to them good girls.” The author doesn’t give us a lot of knowledge about the narrator; though I’d prefer if she did. This will allow us readers to connect to the story more. Overall I think the characters are a perfect fit to the story.…
How does Willy Russell use minor characters in Blood Brothers to reveal society’s attitude to class in the 1980’s…
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.…
In the novel “The Help”, the racial diversity is the main controversy. One character in this story decides to stick up for what she believes in. The bold actions she takes brings society one-step closer to racial equality. This character is Eugenia Phelan, often referred to as “Skeeter”. This 23-year-old white woman from Jackson, Mississippi devotes herself to a cause greater than herself. Her dedication she displays towards helping the maids in the story speaks volumes towards her character. Skeeter develops a great relationship with one of the main characters in the story, Aibiline.…
This story, in all honesty, did not entertain me or stimulate intriguing thoughts. I felt like the author gave a lot of his time to describe the scene and the appearance of characters that there was nothing really going on. I spent most of my time while reading trying to figure out or thinking what certain things looked like rather than anticipating what may be happening next. Overall this story did not engage me nor hold my interest. I did on the other hand find the way Sammy’s attitude to toward the girls rather baffling because here are these three girls, two of which he mentions are overweight and not on the attractive side, and then “Queenie” whom he points out is too pale but yet in a sense “eye candy”. It was strange how he felt a pull towards them as soon as he noticed them and felt the need to quit his job and become their self proclaimed hero. Was he just as strange or just someone who really needs the attention?…
This play reflected a part of society that was frowned upon on a social level in the mid 20th centuary. Today a play like this is concidered normal, or average as far as the contrivisrail espects are concerned, but in the 40s a character like Blanche Dubois was something that challegned the moral of the ideal american family. This play is about Blanche DuBois, a schoolteacher from Laurel, Mississippi. She arrives in New Orleans to live with her sister, Stella Kowalski. Blanche told her sister that she lost their their ancestral home Belle Reve, following the death of all their remaining relatives and husband. She mentions that she has been given a leave of absence from her teaching position because of her bad nervous breakdowns.…
The world’s best novella’s are those that leave the reader in shock and constantly curious as to what might happen next. The novella, The Ballad of the Sad Cafe by Carson McCullers, is a novella that follows the main theme of love that involves the main characters Miss Amelia, Marvin Macy, and cousin Lymon all connected under one love triangle. Throughout the novel cousin Lymon proves himself time and time again to be very dependent on others,a dramatic attention seeker, as well as a grotesque.…
Everything was really over aggravated when the tax collector got angry he was really angry, when the widowers was depressed she was really depressed. For example the tax collector was so angry he broke the furniture the widower was so depressed she locked herself in her house. Both of the Mrs. Poppv and Smirnov do a great job at listening and looking with each other. At one point in the play Smirnov got really angry and knocked down a glass which by his reaction I do not think was suppose to happen but Mrs.Poppv was able to use that and make it seem as though it was a part of the play. I felt like the over exaggeration is what made the play funnier because it was ridiculous how sad she was after her husband had been dead for so long "we understand your life sucks but get up and do something about it". The tax collector was so fed up with life that he was ready to end his life because all of his debtors would not pay up…
Re-read Scene 10 and examine Miller’s Presentation of attitudes to marriage in this scene and at least one other point in the play.…
However, from this Mrs. Bennet was one of the few that had the same characteristics as were portrayed from the beginning. Mr. Bennet was part of the majority that were misinterpreted, through the behavior and the actions he employed. My first impressions of Mrs. Bennet were guided by the huge means of hedonism, not just for herself but for her daughters. Her character from beginning has remarkable flaws that triggered me to immediately start to despise her, and the actions that followed reiterated this. Her antiques of wanting to marry her daughters are explicitly shown when she is talking to Mr. Bennet in the first few pages, “…You must know that I am thinking of his marrying one of them.”…
As You Like It is a play that incorporates a variety of characters, thus incorporating diversity with regard to their relationships with each other. As You Like It is a comedic Shakespearean play, and upon completion of the plot or storyline all’s well that ends well. However, in the initial stages of the play we are introduced to the theme of fraternal conflicts or “troubled family relationships”…
