Macbeth Play Review In Lynne Parkers Macbeth she spends time making specific aspects to the play the best they can be. The three places in which this is shown are Macbeth himself‚ the witches and her extensive use of lighting and sound. When we entered the feature we saw a very irregular stage. The stage was split into two levels‚ a large raised area at the back which was connected to a lower level which was connected by steps that were designed to look as though they had been carved out

The No Pass/No Play Rule is Unfair! Although the no pass/no play rule has the best of intentions‚ many educators state that few‚ if any‚ students have benefited from this unjust rule.

For this artistic community response‚ I will write about my experience with the play “The Octaroon” and how it relates to me as an artist. The main takeaways that I can draw form “The Octaroon” are that you should not be afraid to tackle real world issues or even playing with the form or style that you ae dealing with. The play had started out being playful in its delivery and overall tone‚ but then had sudden shifts in change. It could become dead serious and just as quickly take such serious matters

Throughout books‚ short stories‚ and plays we witness as characters evolve and grow into their roles. These changes sometimes occur as a result of an event or possibly through the influence of another character. Nora Helmer in Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll House” is a character that finds her true self through her interactions with several minor characters.

The topic of my observation was children ages 2-5 and how they play. I’ve found through research and observation that play is affected by each child’s individual development. Play has norms and structures that most children follow‚ but these guidelines are moldable based on the circumstances encompassing each child’s development. In the PowerPoint slides from class‚ Berger (2014) states that development is multi-cultural‚ multi-directional‚ multi-contextual‚ and plastic. Style of attachment‚ ethnic

Seminar Review On November 20th I went to the Black Box theatre to see the play Seminar. It was a small production‚ and there were only five actors. Going into the play‚ I had no idea what to expect.

I loved how realistic the setting was; it really looked like somebody’s real apartment. The actors did very well portraying emotion
