Recently‚ I had the pleasure of seeing Nikolai Gogol’s 19th century comedic farce‚ The Government Inspector. The thrilling play I attended on Thursday November 5‚ 2015 was adapted by Jeffrey Hatcher‚ directed by Matt Foyer‚ and produced by Jeanette D.Farr at the Glendale College Auditorium Mainstage Theatre. This funny contemporary production illuminated the absurdity and vanity of human behavior. The 90-minute comedic face‚ performed in the grand Proscenium theatre‚ had a clever and unexpected series

SAY NO TO PLASTICS!! As quoted by Lord Byron‚ “There is a pleasure in the pathless woods‚ There is a rapture on the lonely shore‚ There is society‚ where none intrudes‚ By the deep sea‚ and music in its roar: I love not man the less‚ but Nature more.” The earth is the only known world to harbour life. There is nowhere else‚ at least in the near future‚ to which our species could migrate. For 200 years we have been conquering nature‚ now we are beating it to death. One of the

The Inspector had a huge effect on the whole Birling family‚ however I think the two characters that he had the biggest impact on were Sheila and Eric.
