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

1. Discuss the genre‚ plot‚ and theme of this play. The theme is both racism and political correctness. The plot focuses on racism‚ but the 2009 couple of Lindsey and Steve expose the “liberated” views of the modern age. Racism is still creating tension in the house as it did in the 1950’s. The satire of the play has key moments of comedy‚ very needed due to the tension created by the suicide of Kenneth‚ and the changing neighborhood in both decades. The den of the house is the room that gives stage

“Pygmalion” by George Bernard Shaw‚ is a play set in the Victorian Era. In this period of time‚ social classes were considered to be fixed and so no one moved between classes.

Title of the play I went to see on April 21‚ 2017 is Grease. The theatre I had saw it in was at C.A Theatre and the company was Tarrant County Southeast Campus. The playwright of the play was by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey and the director of Grease is Steven D. Morris. My pre-show experience the first thing I saw was a person’s head‚ which I believe it‚ was the composer‚ which was cool because of how he rather stays hidden. In addition‚ I like how they had the curtains down with the title in bold

this through the lives of a few aboriginal people. The play shows how aboriginal people lose their way and become more reliant on the white man and how the whites used this position of power of them. One cannot survive unless one has ones’ purpose. To aboriginal people their purpose was unrecognised due to the destruction of their past. Which meant that their purpose was lost and without that they faded away with help by the white man. The play is set in the 1929 in Western Australia‚ in a small settlement

The play touches on immigrants that reside in the United States without legal permission. It talks about the increased arrests and deportations of individuals who have worked in this country or resided here for years just to be shipped off. To a place they no longer know. In one part of the play‚ there is a university of Chicago student who talks about her identity and fitting

Florida Studio Theatre’s production of Butler by Richard Strand is witty‚ full of word play‚ and all too relevant. As a country embroiled in conversation around race‚ immigration‚ identity‚ and at the core of it all who has the right to humanity‚ this question is posed to us once again as with this play. Butler embodies both the past and present while presenting a unique opportunity to learn from it and change our future. At the top of Butler‚ both Major General Butler and Lieutenant Kelly refer
