1. Write a 150-word paragraph in which you describe the dramatic context of this passage. Thomas resulted to declaring his speech in Act I when he was in an argument with Humphrey and Margaret concerning his status as the devil and his ability to predict when Judgment day is.

First of all, the primary anomaly I noticed implies the Indian boy and his role during the piece.
Julie Taymor’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream film adaptation creates a fantastical spin on the well-known Shakespeare play. The director is able to create an effective dream-like setting with the use of projections, lighting, and puppetry.

Puck is then lifted into the air and a large white sheet consumes the stage. Even for those familiar with the play, such as myself, it immediately commands your mind to travel to the dream world Taymor has created.
