    What if theater was free to the public? I encourage you to go look up prices to Hamilton in order to really appreciate this concept. What if performance art was no longer limited to the few for whom it is was financially feasible to throw away a couple hundred dollars on a theater ticket. The Federal Theater Project not only made theater available to all, regardless of economic status, but also employees over 10,000 artists suffering from the Great Depression.…

    When I wrote my post, I was looking at the price discrimination of movie theaters as a negative for people that work normal business hours of 9-5. I didn't give any thought to the fixed income senior citizens that benefit by going to matinee at a low cost. Each individual will look at this scenario differently, this is probably a very debatable subject. I still feel that if movie theaters were to charge the lower cost for all times and ages, that they would recoup this in concession stand sales. Do you agree with this statement?…

I am really interested in things involving art, so I thought it would be the best option. I also thought it would be the best option if I wanted to do it with a partner. We could effectively divide up the amount of work we had.…

    The Lindall Finley Wortham Theater is located in Houston, Texas at the University of Houston. The décor of the exterior is impressive. Its large glass windows give on passers and guests a glimpse of the lobby, which is brightly illuminated by several lights. My arrival to the theater was early. I was kindly greeted by the friendly staff as I entered the theater.…

    One difference between stage sets for theater and settings for motion picture is that stage sets aren’t usually as detailed as settings for motion picture. Audiences can’t pick up on small details they’d be able to see in film. “The director…must generally work with fewer sets, one per act” (Giannetti 302). Stage directors are a lot more limited and must be conscientious about how their scenes will play out with the few sets they have. Whereas settings for motion pictures can have virtually any setting and the directors can add in small details because they know the audience can see them.…

    In another article with the subject containing women of color and diversity in theatre, Candy Bowers writes, and has an entire discourse on the constant denial of how things really are. Bowers’ article Racism in the theatre world is real and it is debilitating, is filled with frustration and her opinions on how the racism needs to be truly contemplated with a critical eye. Moreover, how we as theatre artists must accurately represent racism. In respect to both Bowers and Cheslaw’s points, again I reference the eight shows I was required to attend in this class.…

    The World Goes Round at Theatre UCF was a spectacular conglomeration of musical performances that were brought to life through excellent acting and use of lighting. Throughout my years as a student I have seen a plethora of plays ranging from high school productions to off-off Broadway. Walking into this production I expected the same level of performance as in my local community college (with a slightly bigger budget). However, after the first song I knew that I was going to be proven wrong.…

    Based on my understanding of the development and purpose of theatre within a culture I believe that theater’s purpose and responsibility in my culture is a way to overcome the struggle black individuals faced, to demonstrate the creativity of art, and to integrate black playwrights into the main stream of American dramaturgy. To begin, blacks used theater as a monument and empowerment to overcome their struggles. Black theatre flourished during the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s and ’30s. Among these was the Ethiopian Art Theatre, which established Paul Robeson as America’s foremost black actor.…

    My Change In Theatre

    Originally, there were various ideals I had for myself in the future, ranging from theatrical involvement to something as simplistic as being a therapist. By the middle of my sophomore year, my dreams to be an actress, although superficial, were now something of a hobby instead of a focus. And what would be the reasoning to that? My change in focus is simply due to being told I need to be more realistic with life, to always have a fall-back plan. I understood that theatre is irrational to pursue when it is difficult to get into shows, living on almost nothing in between the many auditions one would attend.…

    When working with my future students I want to instill a love for reading that was never instilled in me. I want to teach my students that reading is important to their everyday lives, but that reading can also be fun. One way that I plan to show them that is through reader’s theater. Reader’s theater is exactly what it sounds like; it is acting out scripts based on books, so the students have an actual visual of what they are imaging as they read. Reader’s theater has been around for a long time, but has recently been implemented in primary and elementary school settings.…

    Cultural industries come from the two words ‘culture’ and ‘industry’, and therefore from the term ‘Cultural Industry’. The term culture industry was created by Max Horkheimer and Theodor Adorno (CITE). The word Culture defines as “the quality in a person or society that arises from a concern for what is regarded as excellent in arts, letters, manners, scholarly pursuits, etc.” (dictionary.com). On the contrary Industry could be defined as that refers to consumption, commodification and production that are neither real or utopian (dictionary.com).…

    Perhaps you’re thinking of joining a theatre crew. You spent much of your childhood attending plays while getting captivated by the fantasy being brought to life before your very eyes and now you want to become part of it. While it is true that most who are in the theatre did join for this very reason, there are some points where the similarities of watching and participating detour into major differences. I preface this with a brief glimpse into my background. First off, I was not an actor.…
