Enta da Stage

Madonna is playing. Journey is playing. Katy Perry is playing. For once, no one is talking. Everyone is focused on their devices. It is Monday. You leave class, you come back the next day. Madonna is playing. It is still Monday. Your list of music Monday topics is stretching on to infinity. It has been Monday for so long. Journey is still playing. Theme essays, Miss. Hintze calls from the front of the room. She says you can do it on whatever theme you want, but you know what she wants. Six…

Presentation The first stage of group work is the forming stage, which is also known as excited stage (Tuckman and Jensen, 1977). According to Tuckman’s theory of group development the forming stage is for developing trust with group members, making contact, bonding and agreeing on common goals. A group is initially concerned about orienting themselves with knowing boundaries of the group (Smith, 2005). I did not know anyone in the group but at the same time I realized I would know them as we…

Bright lights and colors surround the area, and you can feel the energy in the air. The instruments being played, and the voices of young talented singers balance each other out. The performers have worked long and hard, their voices hit every note and their steps are perfectly aligned. Even though the five stars are only kids, they’re disciplined. Especially the lead singer, who is only eleven years old. The lead singer was Michael Jackson, and his band was Jackson 5. The group was brought…

the beholder. Emotion is a virtue when experiencing professional production, as actors can give and take this crucial sense, it seems to grow as they continue their role. Emotion is played by the actor but left for understanding by the audience. As stage right filled with bursts of hateful bickering, the audience could only wonder what was to occur as they laid their eyes on an empty set. These voices seemed to be the only thing occupying the dark room. The arguments set an unsettling mood for…

This semester I worked in the Scene Shop for Production Experience 1 for both Vinegar Tom and Dead Man’s Cell Phone. Because I came on later than the rest of my peers, I caught the tail-end of work for Dead Man’s Cell Phone. I also participated in light hang and strike for Vinegar Tom as part of my Production Experience this semester. In terms of scene shop, it was new for me because I had never spent such a concentrated amount of time in that aspect of production or worked on projects on such a…

This is the class “Introduction to Theatre,” one of the best class in CU Boulder. The class basically teaches every basic elements of the theatre, which are, theatre element structure, the origin of theatre, the kinds of stages, and etc. I have profoundly learned so much materials for the great professor (Rebecca), TA (Jash), and also my fellows. I would say theatre class could change my new perspective looking to theatre in general. Throughout this paper, I would personally tell about the…

Disease and degeneracy has taken place of the progression promised by the Enlightenment, there is discomfort present within modern society and its streamlining that has led to the world despair and nihilism. Modern mechanical social structure stands responsible for the capacity depletion of humanity to find meaning, and the increased intellectual sophistication is in fact a manifestation of a vane sense of egoism, bound to erupt violently. What was deemed to become the age of information has…

In this reflection, I combine the content of the two classes last week. First, I will give my reply to several questions that posted by the discussion leaders. Secondly, I summarize and present my thoughts to several discussion topics in class. And finally, I would like to posit my questions to Marx, Marxists, or Post-Marxist. For the class on Tuesday, one question we discussed was about the differences between money as capital and money as mere money. My own answer to this is that Marx…

confront its history. A notable example of this challenge is Germany after the events of World War II and the Holocaust. For German society, the current prevailing attitude is that a nation can only truly reckon with the past if they understand it. Das Boot is the perfect cultural representation of the idea that the only way Germany will be able to look to the future is through acknowledgement and realistic portrayal of the past. The modern confrontation with Germany’s Nazi past, like many…

The final two sections provide a summary of evidence related to physical…
