A Patriotic Salute To Her Troops Play Summary

They followed the steps on how to get an audience attention when telling a story or doing a presentation. First, they told us what they are going to do which was to kill the king, and how they are going to do it, and lastly why they did it. One thing I found really successful was even though the play was really comical the actors were able to keep the storyline in a way that I could understand. The show kept me on edge, it kept me wondering what craziness is going to happen next. Although the show was really comical it also had a lot of life lessons that I learned. Firstly, one thing I learned from watching the performance is that” Once a traitor always a traitor.” In the show, there was a guy that plotted a coup with a soldier so they could overthrow the king so that soldier “ “captain Bondure” could take over. In the end, the traitor ended up betraying the soldier and stole the crown. The second thing I learned from this performance is never let anything bring you down no matter what the circumstances are. In the case of Ubu Roi, the princess lost her dad. Then her mom died right in her hands while they were on the run hiding in a cage. She never gave up on her idea to revenge her families’ death.

Many people hail “The Star Spangled Banner” as the greatest piece of American music. The audiences of America’s national anthem seem, instinctively, eager to express their respect by embracing the notion to remove their hats and stand up.

What exceptional difference allows it to prevail over the masterpieces of prominent composers like Mozart and Beethoven? The answer is fairly simple. “The Star Spangled Banner” symbolizes America’s perseverance, its set of moral laws and ethics, and its history that constitutes what America truly means.

The play takes place down south of Chicago in the 1950’s.

The full name of the performance is MUS 150 Choral Recital Hour. The name of the physical theater in which I saw the play is the Knuth Hall, and it was a choral concert. I saw the show at 1:00 pm on April 4, 2016, and it took approximately fifty minutes long. The ticket was free. My seat was on left row. It was a good place because it was very close to the stage, and I could see everything clearly. There are probably 200 seats in the theater. The concert was informal because it was free and didn’t have printed programs.

The first song that they played was very lively and loud. The song was basically a series of solos and the composer described it as

While I have mixed emotions about this play, itself, I have a better appreciation and understanding about how a play should be presented now that I have researched the history of american musical theatre, and that is unity of the story being told, thru song, dance, and performance.

To start, one of the many things that stood out to me was The Lady who was mysteriously present in every scene.

The stage manager starts out the play by telling us the date which is May 7, 1901. This alone will bring you back to a time where things are very different for people.
