producing a one and done play, while not-for-profit theater is continuous and produces play’s for an entire season. Another key difference is that commercial theater will run a show for as long as the ticket sales support it while a not-for-profit has a specific end date. In commercial theater, the producer has no connection with the theater where the show is being performed while in a not-for-profit theater, after a few years of the show running…

1. What is this play about? Consider textual, subtextual and contextual layers of the dramatic text. Consider all of the elements of drama. Textual: Both Marion, an eighty-year old women, and a young girl also named Marion, sit in a park as they both do every morning. Through conversation, it becomes apparent that they are in fact the same person at the opposite ends of one shared life cycle. The younger Marion, simply referenced as ‘girl’ in the playtext, represents the beginning of their…

song allows for listeners to be able to easily remember the tune that is being played. In the video, the artist played a few chords to give the audience a hint as to what song they would be playing. As for the rhythm and tempo, this particular performance had a very steady and repetitive beat. The tempo was fast because the song is pretty upbeat and happy.

As stated before the concert was not what I was expecting. I enjoyed it…

The performance I attended was the graduate recital for a student from UTEP, Diana L. Esparza. Although not quite an orchestral performance, the music presented still incorporated many of the concepts that we have reviewed over the semester, and a handful of composers that we have reviewed as well: two of these composers being Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Franz Schubert, and Giuseppe Verdi. The overall nature of the pieces selected involved various genres that incorporate a singer in its scoring, as…

I believe that it brings deeper meaning to a performance when the director/actor’s personal characteristics have been incorporated into their performance. Unlike Horace’s idea, who believed that it was important to keep genres apart like tragedy and comedy, I feel that the incorporation of two different genres can not only create a diverse atmosphere…
