Children often learn about their society’s ideals of love and relationships from fairy tales. Told from a female perspective, the poem Puce Fairy Book by Alice Major challenges and disproves the unfeasible and degrading expectations that women are held to, specifically by men in relationships. The motivation of the speaker, addressing a male counterpart, is to say that she does not care for other’s opinions of her faults and does not desire such unaccepting people in her life. Major’s use of fairy tale allusions and metaphors play an important role in establishing the central message that is the “perfect” ideological image that society has created for women to conform to are unrealistic and

Cinderella has changed so little over time that it seems we’re still in the 1700’s listening to Charles Perrault. And yet it remains of the most popular fairy tales read to children. The role of women continue to be either the cruel, evil one or the good, docile one while the prince continues to be the saving grace of the helpless girl. The skeleton hasn’t changed much as well. A damsel in distress, saved by a knight in shining armor, who falls in love with her and they live happily ever after. Does this sound familiar? This sentence might as well be a fairy tale. We’ve seen this over and over in Cinderella, Rapunzel, Sleeping Beauty and Snow White.

“Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy’ is the most well-known piece from The Nutcracker. The music starts out very slowly and softly, but gets louder so that the song is crescendo and decrescendo constantly repeating the main melody throughout the piece. The music is both homophonic and polyphonic and has varied dynamic with a lot of expression. Tchaikovsky does a wonderful job of constructing the piece to match the gentle and delicate Sugar Plum Fairy and the dreamlike state of the ballet. The dance that accompanies the piece is one of the most technically challenging dances of the ballet and is always danced by the prima ballerina, principal female dancer. I think the musical piece became as popular it is due to Tchaikovsky using it to introduce the celesta that creates the enchanting, trickling sound of the piece and because the dance to it is very difficult and is often a main feature of the ballet. It is understandable why there are so many transcriptions of it

I gathered my experiences as my compass of what to expect when I come to the theatre. I did some google search before hand to get a glimpse of what to look out for but that was it. Upon entering the theatre, we got some flyers. As always, I looked for a quote or something that hints at the overall meaning or plot of the play. The paper said that the play is about despair hope of outcast people, people who are not 'normal ' in the general sense.

In Spring Ford Community Theater’s production of A Christmas Carol, the rhetoric utilized by the director and actors in the creation of this play helps strengthen the argument that the tale is still relevant and connects to the modern era, which is proposed in Stephanie Allen’s Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” Told Uncomfortable Truths About Victorian Society, But Does it Have Anything to Teach Us Today?. Through the use of emotional appeals and the chronological progression of the play, this production makes the tale believable and reconnects it to common themes found in modern literature. The purpose of this production is to reinforce how these themes affect life and to display a positive outlook to the holiday season, which is done by the connection of this production with the viewer.

Everyone in the theatre stood up and clapped politely as I got to the edge. As I sat down, the orchestra stopped and the play continued. At the end of the 2nd Act, my bodyguard, John Parker went to the bar next door. The 3rd Act had just started, John wasn’t back, but I decided to let him off the

As we dressed for the show, my thoughts were flooded with images and ideas. We descended the hotel stairs, hailed a taxi, and arrived at the theatre; while I remained in a pleasant daze. My first impression of the Nederlander met and exceeded all my expectations. I had envisioned an old theater, forgotten by the Broadway elite. As we walked to the door, we were able to see the wall signed by the cast and photos of the premier. The theater itself had a rundown feel to it and left you with the distinct impression that the magic was within the walls and on stage. As we entered the doors, I soaked in every thing. Our seats were located in the center, orchestra section, which gave us a perfect view of all the action.

When the four friend got to the hospital on 7th street they remembered the stories that their parents every night about the killer Santa Claus and how he would come out and kill kids that were inside the hospital.But two of the friends thought that it was a joke so that they could get scared and sleep with their parents.Also right before the friend went inside a strange man came from the shadows and told the kids that that hospital was haunted by a department store Santa that got drunk and was shot in the head by the police because he killed his daughter and his wife with a axes.

Each time the scene changed the actors would stand still and be turned on this rotating stage. I thought was very interesting because as the audience we don’t usually get to see how the stage transforms into a new location or time. Another scene I found surprising was the clip of The Belle of New Orleans. The movie is about a wealthy white women who falls madly in love only to come down with a deadly illness. The look of the picture was in black and white to match the cinema picture of 1855. The setting took place in Marie’s bedroom who is played by Gloria. Marie in lying in bed and is listed by her best friend. Anna Mae plays her best friend ,Cecilia, a french singer. Marie is wearing a vintage gowns from that time period. Vera and Lottie play as Marie’s maid and they are wearing maid outfits. The film clip is dark and the only use of light is the natural light from the window. The most memorable scene from the movie is where Tilly is standing next to Gloria’s bed.Gloria is dying and in her last words tells Tilly she is free. Tilly then says her infamous line “Stay awake, and together we’ll face a new day”. As Cecilia and Lottie stand by the door while Tilly touches Marie’s face. She then walks to the window and the dramatic music play as the scene closes out. The reason why I found this scene surprising was because thought the play we are told how memorable this scene was and seeing it

Tchaikovsky wrote The Nutcracker at the request of the Director of the Imperial Theatres, Ivan Vsevolozhskii (Poznansky, 2012). The Nutcracker is based on E. T. A. Hoffmann’s fairy tale, of which Tchaikovsky was fond of. However he did not like using The Nutcracker for a ballet scenario. The ballet tells the story of a young girl, Clara, who is given a nutcracker for Christmas. Clara then falls asleep and dreams the nutcracker fights an evil mouse king. The nutcracker then turns into a prince and takes her to a land of snow, where he tells her the story of the battle with the army of mice. She does several dances for the Prince to celebrate his triumph in battle. She then awakens and learns it was all just a dream (Green, n.d.). The Nutcracker was

When I entered into the theatre to take a seat, I noticed the stage was set up with showers, lockers, and small baseball field. The showers were placed in the back of the stage, the baseball players' lockers were placed on the sides, and there was painted baseball field in the middle of the

A Christmas Carol is one of the most iconic play as it displays an abundance of successful components. From acting, to stage directing, scenery, costumes, and lighting, the production portrays all those significant aspects. Throughout the process of the play, the plot and acting was incredibly engaging and dramatic. As for the stage directing, all props and cues are organized and well constructed. As for the costumes, scenery, and lighting, all elements was focused on the theme of the play; this created a remarkable environment for the audience to settle on.

This might be the end of the Evil Queen (Lana Parilla) in “Once Upon a Time” Season 6 as the antagonist was turned into a snake by Gideon (Giles Matthey). With that, some question who will be the next main villain in the continuation of the fairy tale television series.

The performance begins in a small little German country side village. All of the characters dressed in vividly colored attire, frolic happily across the stage in trios. The bright colors of the background and the calm music paying from the orchestra aided in depicting fairy tale-like scene around the dancers in order to show it is a time of peace and joy. The main character Giselle, played by Svetlana Zakharova, and Albrecht, played by Roberto Bolle, meet and dance together, in traditional
