MAKE SURE YOU…
1. Use the terminology from the textbook and the questions below as a guideline to write your review. You do not need to answer each question individually.
2. Don’t just say “the lighting was perfect or the acting was great”…tell me WHY it was effective, what mood did it set, what about the acting made it believable, etc? Be specific!
3. If you are unable to see a play this term, then you may review a live production that you saw within the last year!
4. Don’t tell me the entire plot of the play in your essay. You are reviewing the various elements of the production, not telling me a story.
5. If you have questions, contact the Professor!
