Camila: You mentioned how the social clubs would put on plays and dramatic readings. Do you remember some of the works that they did?

“The Producers” “The Producers” is one of the most famous musicals in Broadway. Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan adapted the musical from the 1968 film of the same name. The musical is about two producers that oversell interest in a Broadway flop in order to become wealthy. The musical consist

For our critiquing assignment in our Introduction to Stagecraft 1, I ventured to downtown Toronto, to a small indie theatre called, The Unit 102 Theatre. There I saw the production of MISS; written by Dora Award-nominated playwright Michael Ross Albert who wrote such works as Tough Jews, The Spadina Avenue Gang with the Storefront Theatre. The set takes place in the aftermath of a shocking accident in a boarding school classroom, the story explores the tenuous connection between a high school teacher, her fiance, and a troubled student whose lives have been irrevocably changed by tragedy caused by a miscarriage, an affair, and the fear of the consequences that are not yet revealed, and finally, murder. This is a one act showdown between three

Performance Analysis - A Social Service A myth is a conventional or ancient chronicle, normally regarding some existence or brave man or event, which can or cannot be a determinable foundation of reality or a standard description, mainly one that is related with God and Goddess’ or demigods and describes some implementation, ceremony, or event of the natural world. In an Australian modern context a myth is created based on peoples perception, their attitude towards stereotypes and how they reacted to other peoples view and form there own. A lot of myths that are created whether it be in a modern context or in past lives can now be denoted as false just due to the fact that there is so much scientific research now that can do this. A Social

The social element of symbolic play is a vital aspect to be taken into account in the cognitive development of children. Vygotsky (1978) theorised that children learn and practice social skills with their parents, and they develop this learning through social interactions. Piaget also emphasised the significance of social interaction

Attending Wicked at the Gershwin Theatre Of the many theatre experiences that I have had in New York City, by far the most memorable of them was when I was afforded the chance to see the iconic play Wicked with my friends. Having never seen a Broadway show live before, we found that our excursion proved very worthwhile. Though many aspects make up the whole of the wonderful time we spent going to see the show, by far what struck us as the most important were the venue, the service, and the high level quality of the production, which all proved to be the most defining components of our adventure through Wicked’s land of Oz.

A soldier takes center stage, his silhouette distinctly resonating in the audience’s mind... “In Flanders fields, the poppies blow between the crosses, row on row, that mark our place, and in the sky, the larks, still bravely singing, fly scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. short days ago. We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, loved and were loved, and now we lie, in Flanders fields.”

After watching the play “The Wit,” I was filled with mixed emotions. When I first encountered wit, as a freshman, I didn't realize how poorly the doctors were treating Vivian Bearing; I just thought they were just doing they're job. Not having the same mindset as I did back when I was a freshman, I could now see the numerous amounts of professional mistakes made by staff who came across Doctor Bearing while she was at the hospital. Its truly unfortunate when the people who must take care of you when you're at your weakest don't even see you as a person. When one of the doctors called Vivian “research,” it caught me by surprise and made me so angry because she wasn't a lab rat, she was a person who was suffering greatly. In addition to that

Tom Cruise’s Brother Holds Audience Hostage at Williamstown Theater Festival Tom Cruise’s lesser known brother, Elliot Cruise, held up 150 people hostage today at “The Model American” play at the Nikos theater during the Williamstown Theater Festival. Cruise, also an actor, threatened those in attendance with a knife and forced three

When the play was being written, there were social changes. A fight called Civil Rights focused on having a black civil rights movement which has been going on for many years and it was finally changed in the 60’s. Two events occurred called the Brown vs. Board of Education and Martin Luther King and Malcolm X. The Brown vs. Board of Education focused on separating black and white children schools. Martin and Malcolm had civil rights movements demanding to change the systems of rights among race.

As a recently employed preschool teacher I have chosen the block area, dramatic play area, art area, and sensory table as the four most beneficial and developmentally appropriate learning areas for my classroom of four year old children.

I chose to analyze the MFA’s production of A Bright Room Called Day (Revisited) by Tony Kushner for this assignment. Yes, I know this choice might be a little unconventional given that the play is not one of the available scripts on Blackboard, or more dauntinly, that the revised edition of the play was not even fully completed before the rehearsal process began, let alone even during the rehearsal process. In fact, new text was being given to the two narrators (Xillah and Zillah) in the final weeks before opening night. I know this because I was a crew member on Buenaza/Cabron and got to know many of the MFA actors. Hence, I also chose to write about A Bright Room Called Day (Revisited) because I am inspired by the artistry of the MFA Year

Introduction Defining play can be very difficult. The term play can be used to illustrate a wide range of behaviors and activities, and can be perceived as both essential and insignificant to the child at the same time. Santrock (2012, p.437) suggests a definition of play as "a pleasurable activity
