As we walking into the main door I was actual taken back with how many people I had see inside the box area. The people who where here to see the play where on the older side of life…

The theme I will be following is identity. We all come from somewhere; we all have backgrounds and pasts; we all have an identity that’s more than just a name. September 30th of 1999, I entered this world. I was given the name Sherri, and I was full of potential. My personality could be shaped by anything, bits and pieces of who I am today were things I picked up in my past.

You are still bent on going” (Bronte 119). But, one side Rochester give her authority only to be a listener rather than narrator that means he also want her to be cage bird, and obeyed him. Furthermore, physically, Jane is again compared with bird by Rochester when he took…
