The play was staged in the black box theatre of The Alabama Center for the Arts in Decatur, Alabama.

    Analyzing S Aimer's Play

    The staging of the play S’Aimer was admirable due to its the performance of the actor. All through the hour and forty five minute play, there was only one actor on stage, Thomas Gionet-Lavigne, who portrayed a young man obsessed with Hector de Saint-Denys-Garneau who struggled with loving himself and with the idea of love in general . Since the actor was alone for the whole play and he seemed to be talking to a loved one most of the time, the whole play could be considered as a monologue. He narrated his whole adventure from the moment he came home and saw that his girlfriend had left to the moment where he is describing everything that happened since that moment to his loved one. At least, that is what the audience was lead to think because of the way he addressed the invisible character he is talking to/his audience: when he was talking about the woman who left him, he always talked in the French second person singular ,“tu” (you), saying things such as “Quand t’es partie...”…

    On October 5, 2017, at 8 o’clock at the Wooly Mammoth theater in Washington D.C., I saw the production of The Arsonists. This production of The Arsonists was about class privilege and the performers in this play did an excellent job in making the spectators see the differences between the working class, the homeless, and the rich. The actors and actresses embodied their characters with all their hearts and did a wonderful performance. The director could not have picked better a better crew to play the parts. George Betterman played by, Howard Shalwitz, did an incredible performance of a man who will do anything for people to like him.…

Gone Home is often questioned on the complexity of its game play, and is often thought to be more of an interactive story, however it does fulfill the requirements of a game and I will be discussing various game play mechanics in Gone Home such as the different objects and their attributes, rules for game play and the overall design that help to support the narrative, as well as how all of this is used to create an effective story and why this is the best medium for such a story.
