The play “Yellow Face” by David Henry Hwang, who is also a Tony Award-Winner of M Butterfly. The play is adapted and directed by Jiff Liu, production and theatrical designed by Francois-pierre couture, costumes are by Manee Leija. The play has feature cast with experience in to and film. It features total of nine actors, but the most main character in the play is Marcus. In the beginning of the play, I like how he give introduction of the characters because when watching the play, it is very important to understand who is play what role in the play. It will be easier for audience to understand the concept of the play, so they can have fun watching it as well. The sound was perfect and the way they were acting seem like they were not even talking.…

Whenever Mama went to her (Lacy’s) room she dove under the covers the moment the light was turned on and screamed for it to be turned off. I really wasn’t supposed to know, I was supposed to be fast asleep in bed until Mama came to wake me at 7:00 for school. Also Mama is insisting that I go to school again!!! When I tried to reason with her she didn’t even speak, she just stared into the distance with such a sad expression that I caved in and said that I’d go. Then, when I got home from school…

A place one could only get to by flying, and a place very few knew about. It was special to the three of them, and they liked to think that it was their own special place.

The Lake was made of water, but it flowed off of the island in a stream that turned into clouds. Thus, Cloud Lake. Some of the animals were crystal, others were…

Anyway back to the story. ...I make a dash past My Mum’s prize scarlet red and sky-blue roses and enter our house via the kitchen door that My Mum always leaves wide open when I am outside. I rush to a stop in front of the yellow plastic-surfaced kitchen table where My Mum is sat facing me with both hands wrapped tightly round her ancient commemorative Royal Jubilee mug looking glum. My lunch of a ‘Best of Both Worlds” wholemeal/ white bread jam sandwich is on a light green ten centimetre…

I will never forget the evenings spent waiting by the dark cliffs, watching the last rays of dying golden light grasping at the tips of waves, the rustling grass, my clothes, my hair and my face as their source sunk beneath the sky. I would quietly observe the deep blue suffocate the sun, and wonder why things are. I would question why our world came to exist and why the sun would set every day, only to climb back up into the sky. I couldn’t let myself fall back to those lazy days, sitting on…

Staud, was what had inspired her artwork, and she was able to explain to us that this specific art gallery, was what represented her past.
