To motivate audience members to address these problems with society, Miller creates characters they can empathize with. Because Death of a Salesman is a play, most characters are actors with a physical presence and capacity for human emotion rather than merely printed names. The theatrical realist movement inspired plays about middle-class characters and encouraged natural acting. Miller took this movement further; to maximize the chance of the audience identifying with his characters, he…

Hitchcock utilised the theme of voyeurism in many of his works e.g. Rear Window, Psycho, Vertigo, and North by Northwest, in his endless pursuit to engage the audience. The use of the gaze invites the viewer into the character’s world and become a part of the scene via relatability. Whilst watching a Hitchcock movie, we almost feel responsible when we see an act of violence being imposed on a character in an act of passion boiling over, as if the blade were in our own hand. There is an element…

paragraphs. Music The performance I was responsible for editing music. The background music of our production is often used film music. For example, Up, Inside Out and Requiem For A Dream.

The play Ubudoda uses frames of the Actor/character, audience and space to portray a flowing series of events. The use of all these frames in a production helps to create a play that allows people playing each individual frame to interpret it differently. Ubudoda is a majority Xhosa play that explores the notion of what it is to be a man. It explores this core theme through Luyanda. Luyanda is coming back to South Africa after many years of studying in the United Kingdom. His reason for…

The play revolves around the use of a single set, the living room of the bachelor Bernard. In order to capture the hilariousness of the comedy, I plan on using a small stage, a single set play set in the living room. The use of multiple entrances into the living room and the rapidity to which the characters come and go generate the timing of the play. That is as much a character Bernard Roberts and the stewardess themselves. The action of this play will be structured around Bernard timetable of…

and masks allow the audience members to become fully immersed into the production of the performance. Every detail of the performance is important and the costuming symbolises the attempt to fully enthrall each member into believing that the costume looked and dressed a certain way. The meaning of the costumes and masks is seen as being an extension of the character and the form of escapism within performances. The costumes tell a story to the audience. The details reveal the character…

To establish this Eno explains that characters are attending the performance of a play called “The Mayor, [and] the time is the intermission between Act One and Act…

The Pillowman, the name of the play sounds like it's a sweet and warm play but it is not. The pillowman is a very suspenseful play that had my heart racing. Although the play was really well put together, there were some aspects of the play that held it back from its full potential. First is the play's story. The pillowman get its name from a story in the play about a pillowman convincing children to kill themselves in order to spare them from a hard life. The Pillowman is the story of…

From the beginning of class till now, my interpretation of Jazz dance has evolved. Originally, I had no idea what Jazz dance was or what it consisted of. After being in the class for a couple of weeks now, my perception of Jazz dance is that it is an art style that involves multiple rhythms of the body, which coincides with music. To reiterate from the readings, I believe it is too complex to actually try to define what Jazz dance is, since everyone who performs it experiences it much…
