    Farmworkers Role In Latino Theatre

    Latinos are currently the largest minority group in the United States, and Mexican-Americans are the largest group within the Latino population. It may be unfathomable for the younger generations to think of the Mexican population in the United States as a silent minority group; however, it was not until after World War II that we see a rise in Chicano nationality and identity movements. What was the role of the theatre in this discovery of identity, and how did the theatre give social voice to this formerly unheard group? The clearest answer to this question can be found through the Teatro Chicano movement, Luis Valdez’s character El Pachuco in Zoot Suit and the performance art pieces and writings of Luis Alfaro.…

The set becomes the end of a cul-de-sac know as ‘flaming tree grove’ a symbolic name that creates a visual image of a fiery hell. The set is complete with gutters and storm water drains and a hills hoist sitting centre stage which is an iconic symbol of Australian suburbia. This design…

    How does Steinbeck convey the theme of loneliness in 'Of Mice and Men'?

    From the very first line, "A few miles south of Soledad" (Soledad being Spanish for solitary), the settings pay homage to the theme of loneliness. The first and final scene take place in a majestic clearing that will remain untouched by the tragedy that unfolds. This reinforces the theme of loneliness as whatever the humans do Nature remains unaffected.…

    Crucible Act I summary

    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.…

    One character that has gone practically insane from the idea that the devil is the cause of the loss of seven of her eight children during childbirth is Mrs. Ann Putnam. Her inability to birth many children has put her on the fritz and this becomes quite clear throughout Act I. Mrs. Putnam proves her desperation when she mentions, “I sent my child- she should learn from Tituba who murdered her sisters.” In her hysteria, she resorts to black magic to discover the supernatural occurrence of her children’s deaths. This hysteria driven action sets the rest of the play’s chaos in motion.…
