Dramatization of The Tempest: Law and Human Rights Shakespeare’s drama, The Tempest, is a play that evokes controversy and can be read as morally ambiguous.

The third was to change the point of view of the story, thereby…

There is a major contrast between the way in which the settings of Translations and Stuff Happens are described in addition to the number of places that feature. For example, in Stuff Happens David Hare frequently changes the setting with generally brief descriptions of Hotel Pierre, Camp David and many other locations, cohering with the play’s chaotic style and numerous characters. The stage directions in Stuff Happens are shorter than in Translations and usually fixate on the characters and…
