My Fiancee and I had just entered the Ford’s Theater that evening. The exterior design of the theater was made of bricks and painted white. The interior was filled with seats and a large stage that stretched from one side of the wall to another. I have came to the theater many times but this was the first time I had brought my fiancee to come with me. I think she came to the theater with me because rumors say that the president was also coming. My fiancee has asked me “ James, don't you think this is a lovely theater?” and I had responded “yes Clara, thats what I taught when I first say the theater.” My fiancee and I were sitting right infant of the stage and then suddenly, I see a tall, bearded man walk in with a full crowd around him. …show more content…
I felt like that was just all a dream and that after it was over, I just woke and see my Clara right next me. I knew that I couldn't fool myself so I just left with Clara’s body and took her home. There was no use, I had accept the fact that she is dead. Her relatives had gotten the news and we buried her body the very next day, April 15, 1865. All her relatives asked me what happened but the only thing I could say was that she died of shock but did not answer the reason of what made her die of shock because my heart felt to painful to relive that moment. As the day progressed, I began to hear people talk about how Lincoln had died the same day Clara had been buried. I felt that the theater’s beauty had faded away from my life and was filled with sadness and pain. I felt like it was my fault that Clara died; if I told her to watch the the play instead of looking at the president being killed, my Clara would still be alive. If I had never brought her there, she would still been alive. It was all my fault, I couldn't stop the murderer or save my love. I made up my mind that I was never going to go back Ford’s Theater ever again because I could not relive the grief and
In her essay “Nine Days of Ruth,” Angela Morales eloquently yet humorously narrates the final nine days of her grandmother’s life. Initially, Morales reminisces about the day her grandmother Ruth passed away projecting a gothic, murky and vacant atmosphere. However, Morales shifts from a leaden tone to a more gratifying voice revealing her grandmother’s life trajectory: betrayal, death, and struggles. The author ends with a eulogy expressing to her grandmother that while other will bury with a different image or perspective in mind, she will bury her as a luminary. Make-believe, fantasy, and imagination play an important role in the essay because it conveys the beauty of death.
Our seats were located in the middle of the theatre on the edge of the balcony in front of the stage. Botti created an intimate atmosphere as he related the show to a Valentine's Day theme. The velvety sound of Botti's trumpet flowed into the air when
The both of us, Nia and Yohancey went to go see Avenue Q; we were pleased with our choice on that show after you, professor Adler had spoken about it so much. We decided to go to the play on Wednesday, April 21st. It was the day of the Jesuit Court carnival so as soon as it ended at 5 we went to get showered dressed and catch the shuttle. We were on the way to the city by 5:30 so that we could figure out how to get our tickets for the show and at a cheap rate. I printed out tickets so that we could get cheaper seats but when we got to the path I realized I left it in my dorm; fortunately my mom works in the city so she printed it out for me. When we got into
On June 5th, 2015, at 8pm I went to see the play Barefoot in the Park in the Delray Beach Playhouse. As I was getting close to my destination, I couldn’t help but notice the beautiful houses around me. The Delray Beach Playhouse is located in a waterfront, which makes it a beautiful spot for the theater. As soon as I walked in the doors, I noticed right away that most of the people there were the elderly, I was by far the youngest person there except for maybe two other, who seemed to be around my age. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but as soon as I got in I bought my ticket and the lady even asked me if I wanted to sit in the first row, of course I did, who would want to give up front seats. As soon as the doors opened I went in and found my
As I’ve continued to advance in my career as a firefighter/EMT I’ve begun to notice the amount of writing that correlates with emergency services. Arguably the most important thing secondary to treatment is report writing. For the past year I have been volunteering in Goochland County and am soon to be an AIC/primary care provider on an ambulance. Throughout the process I have noticed how crucial documentation is by leading patient treatment and handling incident reports. This paper is to inform myself and readers about the topic of writing within the field of EMS based on the questions I have asked EMTs, paramedics, and firefighters.
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
I never saw my mother, to know her as such, more than four or five times in my life; and each of these times was very short in duration, and at night. She was hired by a Mr. Stewart, who lived about twelve miles from my home. She made her journeys to see me in the night, travelling the whole distance on foot, after the performance of her day 's work. She was a field hand, and a whipping is the penalty of not being in the field at sunrise, unless a slave has special permission from his or her master to the contrary--a permission which they seldom get, and one that gives to him that gives it the proud name of being a kind master. I do not recollect of ever seeing my mother by the light of day. She was with me in the night. She would lie down with me, and get me to sleep, but long before I waked she was gone. Very little communication ever took place between us. Death soon ended what little we could have while she lived, and with it her hardships and suffering. She died when I was about seven years old, on one of my master 's farms, near Lee 's Mill. I was not allowed to be present during her illness, at her death, or burial. She was gone long before I knew any thing about it. Never having enjoyed, to any considerable extent, her soothing presence, her tender and watchful care, I received the tidings of her death with much the same emotions I should have probably felt at the death of
To begin, The Globe Theater had a very unique building structure. In the article “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.
The death penalty till this day remains to be a very controversial topic. Some people may argue that it should be considered a form of cruel and unusual punishment; others may rebuttal in saying that the death penalty is capital punishment. When visiting the idea of placing someone to death one must bear in mind the possibility of condemning an innocent person through such torture, the brutalizing effect on society it may leave, and the serious psychological trauma that a defendants family and friends may face. Is this really what the justice system is willing to place on the line in order to gain a form of so called justice. I mean reasonably speaking what will anyone gain from such an action. It definitely will not bring the harm to be undone. As stated in the encyclopedia under the theory of judicial torture “ the use of torture was confined to capital crimes, for which the death penalty or mutilation could apply” (PIHLAJAM, 2004). Looking at how the death penalty is conducted people should not be treated like animals, given a due time to be put down. No human being deserves such treatment whether or not his or her offense was so horrific and traumatic. Is that not the lesson being taught to society when the criminal is captured? Yet, the law as a jury of peers, men just like the accused, may cast the same sin upon him. Why should this action be considered in any way to be fair or believed to be capital punishment?
Prompt: Write an essay in which you describe the speaker's attitude toward the woman's death. Using specific references from the text, show how the use of language reveals the speaker's attitude.
It was not sudden; she had been suffering for a little less than a year. I kind of remember the “chain of reactions’ that led up to the diagnosis. It was around the fourth of July and we went to my grandparent’s house to celebrate. Shortly after arriving, everyone migrated to the pool area, where my Dad noticed that half of my grandma’s face was “melting” and her arm wasn’t through one sleeve of her shirt. After pointing that out, my grandpa proceeds to inform us that a few days prior, she had fallen on the ground while outside as a result of a medical issue and has been off ever since. Surprised to hear this, my dad told my grandpa to take her to the doctor. This day was the beginning of the end.
This is a must watch Broadway show that makes your fine, terrible, or even boring day, an absolute blast. The Play That Goes Wrong has finally made its way to America and right at the heart of New York City near Times Square at the Lyceum Theatre. Therefore, the experience is a win-win situation for the audience. The Lyceum Theatre’s architecture is astonishing as it is filled with ornaments, I also realized the letter ‘L’ around the theater, but the most interesting fact is that it is a landmark. It has a proscenium stage while the audience is in the orchestra, balcony, or the mezzanine seats, like where I sat, and there is barely any space if you are a tall person. My seat was near the far end of mezzanine, I couldn’t see a part of the left side of the stage, so I found myself bending sideways to see what was going on, but I saw nothing. I found the side stage lights and a side balcony blocking my view and yet I had a great time.
For decades, teenagers all over the world obsess over their body image. They are constantly trying all different ways to create the perfect body, no matter the price they have to pay. Many will try by doing it the healthy way, which is done by exercising or eating healthy. However, for many girls, this does not work, therefore, this leads them to either starve themselves or purge after eating a big meal or even a small snack; this is known as bulimia. Bulimia is a serious, potentially life-threatening eating disorder where the person is constantly trying to rid their body of the calories they consume. This disorder is commonly found among female teenagers because they have an internal pressure to be thin. This disorder often causes malnutrition which can have a great effect on a teenager’s health. If you have bulimia, you are probably preoccupied with your weight and body shape. You may judge yourself severely and harshly for self-perceived flaws. Because bulimia related to self-image — and is not just about food — bulimia can be
“Please pardon our absence Henry and Clara.Our buggy’s wheel popped off,” I said smoothing out the folds in my dress. “Oh it’s quite alright,” Henry said waving off my comment. “What A lovely dress you have Mary,” Clara said goggling my finery. “Thank You Clara,” I said curtly. “Shall we sit down my dear?” My husband asked gesturing to our seats. “ Yes of course,” I said fingering the fine red material on the back of the chair. I neatly arranged my dress so it wouldn’t wrinkle, sat straight up, and and folded my hands in front of me. Actors rushed across the stage to begin the quirky tale.Smiling I turned to my husband and asked “What was the name of this exquisite play?” It’s called “Our American......,” He said slumping in his chair. I looked to the right and saw John Booth standing there, smoke coming out of his gun. Brave Henry jumped out of his seat and charged at the man. Henry was fast but John was faster. He stabbed Henry in the shoulder and jumped out of the box and onto the stage below. I could hear his bone snap but still he proceeded to continue to the middle of the stage. “Henry are you okay?” Clara said rushing to his side. I then looked back at my husband. Blood soaked his shirt, staining it red. So much I thought, so much blood. “ Honey can you move for me?” I squeaked. He did nothing except struggle to breath. In the background I heard John yell “Sic semper tyrannis!” but I didn’t care. I just opened my mouth and screamed. Everyone went into a panic,
