Hi Kimberly, I appreciate how genuinely you stated that it is very difficult to address all the issues in Maria 's story. The issue of immigration is complex and it generates a multitude of events. It is for this reasons that topics such as the health care and the immigration are the still on the debates table of elections for the last decades. Merjona
During the early-mid 17th century American, culture experience many innovations as the country grew in population and modernization. One of the more notable innovators during this time were Sarah and Angelina Grimké. The Grimké sisters were activists for civil and women’s rights (Roark, James L; Johnson, Michael P; Cohen, Patricia Cline; Stage, Sarah; Hartmann, Susan M;, 2014). The Grimké sisters grew up in South Carolina to a prominent judge in South Carolina who owned slaves on their plantation.
The first season of CW 's Jane The Virgin made a good impression to both critics and viewers. The finale was something that was intriguing considering the kidnapping of Jane 's (played by Gina Rodriguez) baby. Celebrity Café published a recap of the season premiere that aired on October 12. The first thing that people saw was Jane frustrated about her telenovela and how it was becoming too much to watch. It was weird for her as well since the music being played on her favorite show brings her comfort for some reason.
This creative piece is a response to the Venus’ ability to manipulate her oppressors in order to get what she wants in the novel The Venus by Suzan Lori-Parks. For this response I used text from scenes 30, 22 , 20I, and 9. I used scence 30 because this scene shows how the Venus uses seduction and her body to get what she wants from The Brother. She is in a room alone with him and he is displaying interest in her and is trying to pursue her because they have a history. The Venus uses these feelings that he has for her to get a dress because that is what she wants.
“Shameless”: did showrunners stop romanticizing the typical working class family? American TV shows have always loved to follow a typical poor family. This base on which a plot could easily be developed has been popular since the late 1980’s like the TV shows “Family matters” or “My wife and kids”. Those TV shows never really presented an accurate depiction of the traditional working class family since the audience of those shows was only looking for a simple entertainment without any challenging ideas or criticism of the inequality within a country.
but we are prepared to take advantage of all the time on the stage that we get. As an eight year old anytime I got on stage was an enormous privilege, every performance on the stage half-blinded for an audience barely-recognizable would come with an adrenalin rush equivalent to free falling. When our director
There are some aspects of the movie that applies to some materials throughout chapter nine in the book. Maisie relates a lot to the word child maltreatment because throughout her childhood, she watched her mother and brothers be beaten, neglected, and terrorized. According to U.S. Census Bureau (2010), “…. Almost 2 million reported and investigated acts of child maltreatment in the United States, almost 774,000 of which were substantiated” (p. 284). The word neglect relates to Maisie because she was not in a stable home to have nourishment due to the fact of drug habits her mother had, and abuse from her father.
Society today is extremely proficient at discussing societal issues. Every day it seems we can add another term to describe the interactive experiences of persons within society. Every day we have conversations about these issues. Every day, it seems, we are willing to sit and theorize about how we can remedy these issues but ,very rarely, are we given an embodied lecture on how and when we perpetuate these thoroughly discussed and theorized societal issues. This is what I believe the theatre brings to table.
How would you characterize the theatre lobby as far as its potential for audience socializing before and after the show and during intermission(s)? All the actors were acting great by grabbing the attention of the audience till the end. How did the
Theatre people, most of the time, are visual learners; so showing them the pictures and explaining the process will help them understand
We could even use some sound effects to enhance the viewers’ experience, especially in the first script, where we want the crowd to be not only to be seen, but heard. The chants, the shouts, the heavy footed trudge as they make their way through a normally peaceful setting.
The beginning of the performance, where the scene is completely darkened with a bit of light behind the curtain and several girls dancing at the background where loud laughing is heard intrigued the audience. It is impossible to understand what is happening on the stage, and the observers are waiting to see the rest of the performance in order to find out what is actually going on. The beginning of the theater play was both intense and exciting. The use of light has strongly contributed to this, as far as the total darkness could be considered to have symbolic meaning besides being used to direct audience 's attention. The spotlight is often directed at the central point of the play, the most important actor speaking or acting on the scene.
In the short story ,”Luisa, please come home, “ by Shirley Jackson is about a 19 year old girl in the 1950’s named Luisa ran away from home because she thinks that no one in her family loves her especially her sister. They don’t get along at all so she left on the day of her sister’s wedding. My claims for Luisa,“ please come home is she is clever, quick, but immature. Luisa is clever because she hid in a big city called Chandler that is near her home. This shows that she went to a big city so it can be harder for them to find her.
I wasn’t sure if it was because the room was eerie or because it felt like it was fifty degrees or both, but I had goosebumps covering my arms. The theatre was filled with eager audience members as everyone talked among themselves. My first critique comes before the show started. When I did theatre I was always taught to not shove around the curtain
Traditional theatres aim at making the characters seem larger than life. Avid audiences of traditional theatres understand that these characters and their expressions, with the use of mask and/or makeup are not realistic, are exaggerated. However, the audience also accepted the amplification of characters as theatres norms, thus able to decipher and appreciate. For example, it might be enjoyable for noh theatre goers to respect and admire the use of Hannya mask in noh Dojouji play, but its grotesque features might be disturbing to those unable to understand the mask. Moreover, the elaborated, heavily - embellished costumes compliment the stylized movements but also limit the actors’ acting on satge in traditional theatres.
