For my second article critique I chose to attend a play at the CORP Theatre in Rowlett to watch Steel Magnolias. Throughout the play my eyes were immediately drawn to many aspects of the play such as the characters and use of spectacles. My overall opinion of the play was positive. Although, unless you have seen the movie before it could be hard to follow along with.
There is other little differences that I noticed added to the story that were in the movie and not the play. There are several scenes where Mother superior is interacting with Sister Veronica. Because of some of these scenes you see another side of Sister Aloysius that presents a more compassionate lady not so wrapped up in doubt. Although Sister Aloysius comes off as a strict woman that really has no sympathy for anyone or anything, which kind of makes you question how the heck she ended up as a nun. In the movie you can clearly see that she has a softer side and actually is hiding behind that tough façade she puts up.
The theme of “These Shining Lives” is the desire for economic independence, it enhances a women’s self worth and shows the exploitation of women worker’s. The play is a historical drama. The play writes message was to show the audience a women desire for independence and being something other than a wife and mother. It shows the struggles and dangers that a women face in the workplace during that time period. I thought the play was really touching. It made me appreciate being young women in the 21st century. I can’t imagine living in a society that sees a women wanted independence to be strange and different. Women and men she equal and this is especially true in the workplace. It also shows how the safety and conditions in the workplace has
I’ve introduced you to Shelby and M’Lynn already; now let me introduce you to Clairee Belcher, played by Olympia Dukakis. Clairee is a wealthy widow of the former mayor of Chinquapin Parish, is a refined southern lady and lover of gossip. Truvy Jones, played by Dolly Parton, is a small town “glamour technician”, gossip and reader of “Southern Hair Magazine”. She believes that “there is no such thing as natural beauty”. Many of the scenes in this movie take place in her beauty shop. Anelle Dupuy, played by Daryl Hannah, is a young woman straight out of beauty school and trying to start over in a new town after her husband mysteriously disappears, along with most of her belongings. Last but not least, we have Ouiser Boudreaux, played by Shirley MacLaine. She is abrasive, eccentric, rude and “richer than God”. She also happens to be my favorite character in the movie. The chemistry between these great actresses is what makes this movie one of the best, if not the best I’ve ever seen. When they are all together, it is movie magic! The dialogue and emotions that are so perfectly portrayed by all, will only leave you wanting more. Some of the gossip sessions are very dramatic and will bring you to tears, but some are so funny you’ll want to pee your pants. As Truvy states in the movie, “laughter through tears is my favorite emotion” and this movie delivers
The Addams Family’s set, costumes, and lighting all collaborate to create an amazing play that boasts both comedy and drama. There were many decorations and props that stood out to me, but immediately upon entering the lobby of the theater; I was able to view a scene that included a mounted buck and many other eerie decorations. Following the opening of the curtains and the beginning of the play I was able to see a large tree covered in neon green and purple paint on stage right and a cemetery scene with various tombstones in the middle of the stage. In addition to these props there was a large gray moon strategically placed directly above the cemetery. In the corner of stage left there was a large doorframe with a padlock holding it closed. After multiple scenes using this scenery the curtain was closed a for a short minute and when they were opened the backdrop was flipped and showed a mansion scene that included a small painted mantle with round hung portraits above it. The costumes that the characters wore during the play played a huge role in making The Addams Family great. For example, Morticia’s black long witch like dress along with Wednesday’s black dress with white rounded collars added to the gloomy nature of the play. Furthermore Gomez’s black pant suit, Fester’s black
Alison Ferebee, who played Sister James, did an amazing job for her first debut at Austin Peay. The only problem I had was she was too enthusiastic with her character. Over all she did a good job. The only thing was she got really emotional in some of the conversations with Father Flynn and Sister
Each sister uses their own talents to help support one another after the death of Marie-Adele, showing how they bonded throughout their road trip to Toronto. Their time at the “BIGGEST BINGO IN THE WORLD” (1159) with the help of Nanabush in many different roles made the sisters realize they needed each other for support, especially during difficult times.
Romeo changes throughout the book. When Romeo went to the Capulets party, he was in love with Rosaline. He saw Juliet and immediately loved her. In act two scene two it Romeo says this about Juliet, "Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven, Having some business, do entreat her eyes To twinkle in their spheres till they return." He compares her eyes to stars in the night sky. Romeo talks about Juliet and is wanting to talk to her. This shows how Romeo is loving and sweet. In the last act of the book Romeo sees Juliet dead in the tomb. She is not really dead, but he doesn't know that. He kills himself so he can be with her in heaven. Romeo is a very loving person, but in one scene he turns into a very hateful person.
The comedy itself is entertaining to watch, yet, it holds an important message that human beings need to understand. The main character battles between her desire to live her exotic life, while her reason to live a simple life in the convent exemplifies the power struggles that human beings face every day. Just as Mary Magdalene was condemned and saved by Jesus, Deloris has found her sanctuary and has reached salvation. Director Emile Ardolino utilizes the empowering female roles of nuns to shed a new light on the power structure of religion and discover a unity between religion and ordinary
Written in 1962-3, Play depicts three characters, a man (M), and two women (W1 and W2) trapped in urns with only their heads showing. These characters each present their own version of a love triangle, which once occurred between them. It becomes clear during the play that the characters, once tortured by each other, are now tortured by their situation. A spotlight acts as a "unique inquisitor," compelling each to speak when it shines on them, and to stop when it goes out. As this assault continues, the characters become increasingly maddened by the light, and increasingly desperate to make it stop. The play repeats itself, providing the audience with a sense that these characters have been saying the same words for an eternity, and will continue to do so until the light decides they can stop. Beckett demonstrates how "A style of living, theatrically communicable, is used to express a state of mind."
Born on approximately April 23, 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, William Shakespeare is considered by many to have been the greatest writer the English language has ever known.

Among his many plays is the notable, Twelfth Night, a romantic comedy, placed in a festive atmosphere in which three couples are brought together happily.
These indiscretions continue to grow as Cisely, who is on the brink of adolescence, transforms into a rebellious epitome driven by sexual jealously and lust. The film’s dynamic character interactions is exacerbated by Louis's sister, Mozelle (Debbi Morgan), a psychic who is staying with the family after the death of her third husband. Coupled with the appearance of a voodoo priestess (Diahann Carroll) who predicts disaster for the family and Eve’s ill-planned wish for the father’s death, the film is a perfect combination of forceful sexuality and mystic spirituality.
