counterculturalists from all walks of life coming together to learn from a Jesus figure. The play directly quotes the stories and parables found in the book of Matthew. While the play’s parables can be explored to find their overall message of love and redemption‚ the play can also be observed as an artifact of the countercultural movement. Godspell follows themes of joy‚ community‚ and reformation. Godspell’s characters begin the play trapped in the monotony of their everyday lives. Most of the characters appear

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

The sound of excitement was what I heard when I walked in. The sound of proud parents praising their children in the play‚ the sounds of students dreading their drama ISAs‚ the sounds of rushed footsteps‚ the sounds of the crowd settling down‚ the Sound of Music in its beginning.

From the opening of the curtains to

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

I think that the Decatur High School production of the play “Into the Woods” by James LaPine and Stephen Sondheim‚ was really good. We went to see it on September 28th.

Finally‚ I thought that they interacted with the audience well. My first reason why I liked it was because of the change moments. I liked their
