Growin up with a Twin is amazing in so many ways. Never being lonely and always having a friend right by your side is one of the many reasons. Sadly, there can also be some challenges. Now, these challenges may not be anything extreme. But this particular challenge I'm about to explain is one I know a lot of twins face. Rather be a Set of boys, girls or boy and girl. And that challenge is one Twin growing up with the responsibility of the other. Now that may not sound so bad but It did affect me growing up taking the responsibility of my Twin sister, Jonesha.

It comprises of one act. In the content play of “Trifles”, male and female characters are plainly introduced as a binary pair of ‘unrivaled’ vs. ‘substandard’.

The biography Identical Strangers by Elyse Schein and Paula Bernstein is about twins that got separated at birth, and now are finding out there is another person in the world with their exact DNA. They were part of a study on separated twins. It was to see in nature versus nurture which one has more of an impact. (31-32) Identical twins were easiest to study because of their identical DNA. Scientists working on the study placed both girls in a family in which are very similar; therefore, they both have a brother that is a couple years older than them. They find out about the other twin, and Paula is having their

Broward College, Central Campus Theater in building 6, on Sunday, the 1st of November. The play was performed by Broward College students. The type of stage was Proscenium stage with extended apron. I thought it was a little bit small, but it did not show as a problem. The pre-show was dark and a feel of suspense. I felt excited to see how everything would play out. The play takes place down south of Chicago in the 1950’s.

I will be honest with you I had a lot of trouble enjoying the play, like I said the dialect gave me trouble, plus my seats were not that great. I did however like the movie quite a bit, but I realize I am a product of a different generation as well. I have been brought up around TV and movies rather than plays

The dreams of each sister motivates them to pursue their own dreams. This explores the ideas of each sister. The dreams of each sister lets them all come together to make their way to Toronto. The women unfortunately not winning the big jackpot return home however, Philomena and Veronique win a portion of money which they each use on what they dreamed of having at the beginning of the play. Philomena buying her toilet and Veronique her stove. This communicates to the readers that the sisters ideas of winning the bingo was completely blown out of proportion. Emily returns home to her store informing us she is pregnant. Annie Cook’s dream of signing back up for Fritz the Catz comes true and Pelajia returns to her contracting on the roof as the play started. Each sister has their own idea of what they would with the money. This shows how the play explores each sisters idea. Philomena and Vernique would get something simple for example like a stove, toilet. The other sisters such as Annie would go to every record store in Toronto and buy every single one of Patsy Cline’s records, or Marie-Adele talks about buying herself a beautiful island. This shows the audience the ambitions and dreams of each of the

Sadly when I arrived at the theater I was not even sure I would be able to focus on the show, for my mother who was meant to see this production with me yet was unable to. Due to unforeseeable circumstances that neither one of us could for see and so with all of this hanging over head I was really hoping to get a laugh from this play, which it did. This was not the first time that I had come to see a play at Boise Little Theater, but definitely this was the first time that I had done it on my own. Which was a tad

Bruce Norris’ 2012 play Clybourne Park takes place in two different time periods. The first act takes place in 1959 and is about Bev and Russ who are moving out of their house to escape the memory of their son, who hanged himself upstairs. The second act remains in the same house but in 2009. Lindsey and Steve now own the house and wish to renovate but Lena and Kevin fear it will change the character of the neighborhood. Amy Herzog’s 2012 play 4000 Miles is about a boy and his grandmother.

Twin studies have been a large part of the growing debate on whether genetics or environment (nature v. nature) is responsible for the cognitive, socio-cultural and biological development. In order to properly assess twin studies it is important to know why and how they are relevant in psychology. Identical twins are especially effective in research particularly in the field of developmental psychology and behavioral genetics due to the monozygotic genes which means they originate from a single zygote (fertilized egg) which essentially means they share 100% of the same genes. Due to this exact copy of genes between twins means this can be efficiently be used in order to observe the impact of

Bette and Dot, two conjoined twins, are a new addition to the show in the beginning episodes. At their new home, they find mutual love for a young man, named Jimmy, with two extremely disfigured hands. All three characters are youthful and seem to envy the outside world around them. They all yearn for a normal shot at life. A life full of family, love, and public acceptance. Towards the end of the series, a seemingly miracle-worker of a doctor comes into play, whom offers hope to Bette, Dot, and Jimmy. He states that there are surgeries out there to fix all of them. Surgeries that he can perform. Surgeries that will make life normal. However, this normal life comes at a cost. Jimmy will have to leave his hands behind along side the only family he has ever had, the freak show. Bette and Dot risk the chance that one of the two will die in the separation surgery. In an initial struggle for freedom, morals surrounding death and family come into play to complicate matters, which can be directly correlated to how some parties in today’s society have to deal with their
