members of American High School's drama department team recently performed Qui Nguyen's play Living Dead in Denmark. I enjoyed the production and thought it contained a valuable message. The cast's masterful performance and the engaging, creative plot which delivered a powerful argument made viewing Living Dead in Denmark a highly enjoyable experience. The cast of Living Dead in Denmark was highly skilled and were able to engage their audience, making the play a pleasure to watch. In…

When I went to Denmark, it was a second war. Why do I say second war? When I got there, I had no background. I needed to learn everything because I had nothing. Even though I was a teacher, even if you were a doctor, even if you were a lawyer, you knew nothing. It’s a second war to learn from nothing and start a new life. My life after 35 years was over and I had to start again. I had to learn how to pay my bills. We never had to pay for water. We didn’t have electricity. We never even had a…

• Denmark Vesey brought his own freedom in 1799. Sadly, he was not able to buy the freedom of his wife and children, which some say is the reason he wanted to revolt. In 1817, Vesey joined the African Methodist Episcopal Church and became a class leader, where he would preach to a small group in his home and allegedly hold meetings to collect weapons for his uprising which would have included 9000 African-American in South Carolina. Before he could enact his plan, a slave named George Wilson,…

With certain people, Hamlet is resolved to get revenge for his father’s death. With other people, this thought is the last thought in his mind. If he had any of the resolve he had showed earlier, his act of revenge would have already been completed. Instead of playing the part of the vengeful son, or dropping the issue entirely, he spends the entire act “slacking off';. He avoids the decision he has to make and pretends to be mad. This is shown when he says to Rosencrantz and…

Many Pakistani families who travel between Denmark and Sweden are in a constant struggle, because Pakistani couples that one of them is a non-citizen are not allowed to live in Denmark right away. Many of these Pakistani couples have an arranged marriage often to someone they are already related to in some form, “Zagib…had married Sara, his paternal cousin, in Pakistan in 2004.” (PG.91) But if the spouse is not a Denmark citizen it makes the marriage difficult because the other non-citizen…

Hamlet, Prince of Denmark Generally speaking, I have a deep love of theatre and admiration for the actors/actresses that flawlessly bring life to classic novels, plays, etc. I fought hard to find those same emotions toward the Denver Center for the Performing Arts rendition of Hamlet. If one has not read or seen Hamlet prior to seeing this play, they very well could be leaving with many unanswered questions. Director, Kent Thompson, fails to bring Hamlet’s character up to my level of…

Every single time I clean my room a little Lego piece shows up somewhere: under my bed, in my drawers, in my closet, and probably several have been sucked up by a vacuum cleaner. Even for the past five years I have had a Lego Star Wars ARC-170 bomber laying on my dresser. Legos are a way for me to express my imagination: they enable me to build what I want when I want. I have spent countless hours just tinkering with these plastic pieces and setting up storylines to go along with them. Slowly,…
