Ever since I was young, I have been drawn to music. When I was just four years old, I heard the sound of a guitar, and immediately wanted to learn how to play it. Since that moment, my passion has only progressed. The first time I performed, I stepped up on stage with my small guitar and managed to strum out the only 2 chords I know.

Dancer poles come in different types and configurations, and one common option is the portable type.

In viewing many of the onscreen performances of Hamlet’s “to be or not to be” soliloquy (arguably the play’s most famous), the class focused on various different aspects which made themselves both present and prevalent in the reflection of Hamlet’s thoughts and feelings. This prompted some friendly debate, of course; after all, whereas most traditional soliloquies are meant to showcase a character’s raw, untampered perspective (on themselves; their hopes, dreams, and pursuits), in the case of Hamlet

represent for us audiences. It is very tough to choose three pieces between all those performers who really put their soul into what they were playing. After observing each performance I have come to pick three that really shined. Number one is the introduction performance, secondly where’s Annie group, and lastly the last performance after Annie which wrapped everything up.

On Friday, October 30, 2015, I attended the Dance TCU Concert that was held on the campus of TCU in Ed Landreth Hall. All of the performers for this recital were students of the TCU School for Classical and Contemporary Dance. The recital was comprised of six modern, contemporary, and ballet dances that included very unique styles of dances movements. Overall, the recital had a light-hearted theatrical feel that was innovative, unorthodox, and detailed-oriented. For the purpose of this critique

BBC adaptation of ‘Taming of the Shrew’ Sally Wainwright’s updated adaptation of this classic Shakespeare play was ingeniously done from beginning to end, reflecting the significant social change brought about by a new surge of feminism.

When adapting classic
