the death of our current president. She supports her thesis throughout her article by bringing up facts to support that the play didn’t support killing our current president. In one part of her article she states “It hardly bears pointing out that art is not life, and that to give “Julius Caesar” a contemporary resonance does not amount to an endorsement of the assassination it depicts.” In her statement she is proving that by trying to relate the play “Julius Caesar” to current times, it is…

Enjoyment, the opportunity to express myself and doing something meaningful are my three main reasons to study performing arts. While almost every little girl finds it amusing to dance in front of the mirror in a new pink tutu, for me the art of movement was always a part of my day and became my steady companion.
