Romeo And Juliet Act 1 Scene 3 Scene Analysis

Improved Essays
All the scenes in the play were short and barely any characters were called by name. They also did not go in order of the pamphlet that spells “Shakespeare.” Throughout my paper, I try to describe each scene to the best of my ability with the info of which play they are acting out or about just the scenes in general. The beginning of the play began with people cleaning up the stage with brooms. The three people were slouched over sweeping close together. This showed medium topography and close proximity. They would do this in one spot and quickly move like fire, to another and clean another spot. After the men finished cleaning for the first scene. Two groups of people came out singing. They were standing in a straight line and all within …show more content…
A woman comes out crying and has strong anger hands with grounded movements, but is talking lightly or air like even though she is angry. She only moves to three different points standing and talking the same, but crying in the mixture. All the sudden she smiles and has strong fire in her voice and quick spark like movement. Titus Andronicus is acted out next. He comes out with strong anger standing tall and straight by the tables. Using STRONG fire, quick head turns and loud with disgust on his face, one line that stood out was "I will grind your bones to dust!" He shows meanness, anger, disgust, and rage. Before he leaves the stage, he walks away from the table and his left arm is curved because it shows he is missing his hand. Othello is another short play that is acted out. Three girls are at a table singing Two of the girls are sitting one is standing between them. They are all in close proximity, but showing different topographies. They then sing another song and then the two on the left stand, joining the original girl standing. The girls all move water like with the rhythm of each other while …show more content…
A girl comes out standing on the table and then jumps off and gets low to the ground, does a small roll thing and then stands up bent over with her arms straight up. In that whole scene she went from high topography, low, to medium and also shows curves with her body and straight lines with her arms. Her element is fire the entire time she is on stage. At the end of her scene she shows two more extreme “systems” by falling to the ground again and getting back up to continue her last lines and runs off the stage. During the Sound and the Fury, three girls come out spinning around singing with extreme water movement and swaying all together. But they have fire in their voice when

    This line said in Juliet's monologue could be interpreted as "Oh, Romeo, Romeo, where is Romeo?" by directly summarizing, but in context in the play, which becomes apparent with analyzing and synthesizing, it's translated to "Oh, Romeo, Romeo, why do you have to be Romeo?" This also evidently proves how the Shakespeare sharpens many skills used by high schoolers on a daily basis, based on how most lines will require them to use and practice these skills when reading the…

    In Act II, Scene 2 of Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare’s diction is very complex and sets the mood for the scene. Through the dialogue between Romeo and Juliet, the reader can conclude that they both love each other vigorously. Romeo describes Juliet with analogies that compare her to celestial objects. For him, she has “two of the fairest stars in all the heaven” as eyes (Shakespeare Line 17). The use of ‘fairest stars’ conveys the point that Juliet seems unique to Romeo.…

    Identify a theme in the play and discuss its expression onstage in the performance and how it’s supported by symbolism or dialogue. Into the woods consistently displayed the theme of greed. Many of the characters made a sacrifice for something they wanted and victimized someone in the process. For example, the witch wanted more than anything to look young again, she sacrificed her powers over others to look that way. The evil step-sisters also were very greedy, they cut up their feet just for a chance to fit in the shoe and marry the prince.…

    Act 3 Response In Romeo and Juliet, many characters’ actions seem to be done out of love. However, as the reader examines these actions more deeply, it seems that some are done out of selfishness. For example, although Lord Capulet acts as though he wants the best for Juliet, it seems most of his decisions are egocentric. He may have had benevolent intentions in the beginning, but we later find out this has changed. Capulet did not consider Juliet’s feelings towards Paris, which would have been the loving thing to do.…

    Over the centuries, theatre conventions evolved from the highly presentational performances of the Greeks to the extravagance of Elizabethan productions and eventually conglomerated to produce contemporary theatre. The University Playhouse’s performance of Acting: The First Six Lessons expressed this conglomeration of Greek and Elizabethan conventions through elements of presentational theatre, a non-localized set, and a supporting cast that functioned similar to a chorus or ensemble. This performance also altered conventions through the addition of female actors, use of representational aspects, adaption of the functions of the chorus or ensemble, and lack of a raised stage. In the following sections, I will discuss the adoption and adaptation…
