liked by the Duke. She is assigned to be a messenger to send love letters to Olivia because the Duke is in love with her. This play is a perfect example of sexism because Viola was well qualified for the job and did an excellent job, however the only reason she got the job was because she was thought to be a man. If she were a woman and had the same skills she would have never got the job and if she did she would have been paid less than any man with the same job and skill level. A theatrical…

clients to spread the word. Using the software “tveyes”, I was able to pick the most important parts of the clips involving the pageant. After the clips were found they were converted into a word document (see example in figure 1). Another big client was coverage of the Tony Awards. The 70th Annual Tony Awards were held on June 12, 2016. The award show recognizes success of Broadway productions during the 2015-16 season. The ceremony took place in Beacon Theatre in New York City which broke…

Hamilton is the hottest musical to hit broadway in decades. It dominated the Tony awards and is completely sold out in every venue for the foreseeable future. This is an American story told in the American medium of the musical and features a diverse American cast. Hamilton is a nearly all black cast. Founding fathers like Thomas Jefferson and George Washington are played by black actors. These past few years have been celebrated as the best time for minority actors in Broadway history. “Tonys…

their own interpretation of this play and I was thoroughly entertained. I decided that this play had certain points and characteristics that each family member could relate too.Even though a few user reviews were negative, we decided that we would rather form our own opinions. A user review by bhack525 stated that "It (the play) ran a bit to long, though when I am in a theatre, I never want it to end-unless, of course it’s a dog of a show." In contrast to that review RaveReviewsNYC stated that…

has become indifferent. His brothers footsteps are no longer ones he wishes to follow in. As terrible as this event was It forced him to mature and understand that the life he chooses will be one unlike any of his family members. However, what really changed Antonio for good was not the moment he viewed his brother as unfaithful, but the moment that Ultima breathed her last words. When Ultima died she spoke her last words to Antonio, but unlike the other last words he had heard hers were not a…

What they didn’t realize was how much work they had to do. They started to be careless with their love, sending out sharp insults and criticisms and then rushing out the door to their next obligation. House repairs, the baby grew, debts piled up and Clarie grew into a sad and lonely version of herself. Her heart sank lower and deeper, knowing this wasn’t what she had hoped for.

My current journey I question the word life. I question my past journey ups and downs and if everything happens for a reason. I also look at judgement in the world today. People judge others for being evil or bad and treat these individuals as if they have always been this way. As I look at my 20-year-old son today, I think to myself where did I go wrong. It takes me back to the day he was born and what a beautiful baby he was. He was a happy baby and I exposed him to love that I never received…
