religions believe in one God. All holidays that were related to Jesus‚ Jews did not celebrate. During the play of the Sacrament‚ the differences of Jews and Christians are shown. All of the characters believe in God. They thank Him for all his blessings and what they have with their jewels and wealth.

fall musical Hairspray. While both celebrating and critiquing aspects of American culture in the 1960’s‚ the overall message is the beauty of acceptance and freedom. Despite a few minor weaknesses‚ likely due to limitations on time and resources‚ the play was very impressive and a definite success. Generally‚ the acting was superb. However‚ Amber’s lines seemed tremendously loud and exaggerated compared to the rest of the cast‚ but that may have been necessary to some extent to make the audience dislike

In the play Fences‚ one of the theme is parent-child relationships. The main character Troy has a poor relationship with his son Cory. The two always argue and rarely have good moments in the play. Troy does not want Cory to be like him‚ but does not want him to do what he wants. In my opinion‚Troy’s relationship with Cory is very poor because of the way Troy treats him.
