Thanks to Edward Albee’s skill as a writer, Alan Schneider’s superb staging and directing and the brilliant performance by the cast, “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” provides a thrilling and spectacular evening at the Billy Rose Theatre. You may struggle to fully understand Albee’s characters. You may feel that a pillar of the plot is too paltry to support the climax. You may feel that this play goes against social norms. You may also feel that this is just another play. Yet, in spite of all that

In the podcast If You Don’t Have Anything Nice to Say, SAY IT IN ALL CAPS, the first and largest portion revolved around a story discussing a writer, Lindy West, and the trolls that comment on her pieces. The main section of this story discussed one troll in particular who made a fake account as her dead father. She claimed that this in particular was “the meanest thing” anyone had done to her (Glass, Menjivar, Vogt). The troll made a Twitter account called ‘Paul Donezo’ and the biography read “embarrassed

I attended a small concert on Friday October 13th in Fullerton California at a bar named the Slidebar. The bands that performed were Livication, Special Blend, and the main performance was by Brewfish. These bands are all of the reggae/rock genre with Brewfish also containing a little alternative and pop as well. The Slidebar’s setup is very organized having a stage down a hall in the back room separated from the bar, which makes for a decently spacious event for a bar. The Slidebar’s purpose was

Power is explored in the two contexts by its assertion and distribution. The value of power is first introduced in Richard’s first monologue in which Richard describes himself as “Cheated of feature by dissembling nature / deformed, unfinished”(I.i.19-20). Shakespeare’s use of symbolism demonstrates Richard’s self-consciousness, as he is aware of his physical appearance, an appearance that was symbolic of evil, as the Elizabethans believed that deformity was a punishment from God. The quote also

I think the overall theme of the play is that family always comes first, and that you can always count on them. Through the entire play you can see that the family values do not change no matter what the circumstances are. Alice was willing to put true love on hold for her family, and said that she would not ask or want her family to change for anyone. I think that Conlin did a very good job directing the play to convey this message and making it clear that family rules all, in every situation. It

As an audience member who has never seen A Chorus Line before, I did not know what to expect. I knew the music slightly from hearing it on my Pandora radio station and from clips on YouTube but I had never seen the show completely put together. The show was exciting and fun to watch, and the moment the song “What I did for Love” started and the actors told me what they did for their love, I felt a deep connection with each and every actor on the stage. The song is at the end of the show, but the

This Sunday I joined the celebrate concert in Transfiguration Episcopal Church. Alternate between chorus singing and singing along. There were about 18 songs total and a story telling along with music. I really impressed by two songs sang by chorus which were “Have Yourself a Marry Little Christmas” and “Duerme Negrito”. “Have Yourself a Marry Little Christmas” written by Ralph Blane (lyricist) and Hugh Martin (composer). This song became famous in the 1940s, when it was sung by Judy Garland in the
