Honey Spot
By Jack Davis
Jack Davis uses many dramatic conventions in his play, Honey Spot. The three main devices focused on in this essay are the interlude, tension and dramatic irony. The interlude informs the audience about what is happening without any dialogue. Tension is created by language or dialogue or by actions. Dramatic Irony is a strange or unusual coincidence. Normally the character in the play would not be aware of the coincidence, but the audience is.
In this paragraph I will be explaining and providing examples of interlude from the book Honey Spot.
Jack Davis provides four interludes in which he explains what is happening, where the actors should stand on stage, what they will be wearing and if sound effects or props are needed. A good example of this is on page 28, Jack Davis quotes music is playing, in the Winnalli’s house. After Jack Davis states this he then provides you with evidence of movement to be portrayed by actors, and records that William will come into the room, as well as his Mother holding on to a bag of clothes. In this play, without even knowing who the Mother is, you instantly know. From when Jack Davis makes the obvious and brilliant statement of saying that she is carrying a bag of clothes. This makes it obvious that she is providing and taking care of her two other family members William, her nephew and Tim her own son.
In this paragraph I will be explaining and providing examples of Tension from the book Honey Spot.
Jack Davis uses tension in a way of representing fear or unhappiness towards one another, which soon becomes an argument. A prime example of this is on page 9, Jack Davis identifies that a bee has flown out of Peggy’s bag, bringing attention to her Father that she is storing honey inside. Tension, is a key example on this page as for it obvious, how Jack Davis wants The Ranger to approach this, which from perspective is identified in a disappointed and frustrated mood. Another example
