Describe the style and genre of the show – did it demonstrate Realism or another genre we covered?
Performance Critique – Cumulative Paper: Please include ticket stub. Describe your experience as an audience member as related to AT LEAST four of the topics studied in this course: design choices, directing choices, staging, costume, lighting, sets, setting, acting, genre, style, staging, space, etc. Did it look well-made or expensive to produce? What challenges to the artistic staff did you see? Please describe anything specific of note in the show (large set, small cast, special effects, etc.). Did anything go wrong? Describe the style and genre of the show – did it demonstrate Realism or another genre we covered? Describe the acting style. Please include what you liked/didn’t like as it relates to the selected categories. Give your reasoning. Please refer to specific theatre aspects (design, character development, etc.) as noted in the book. I am also interested in the audience itself – what were the demographics? Did the audience “play along” if the play required it? Even if the play was not interactive – did the audience hold up their end of the bargain?
