reflect on groups performance





while watching the struggle between the decision of choosing the devil and angel I think I could have done a better job really showing that emotion. the devil is feeding me information on what I should do and the angel is also feeding me information and I have to show that the conflict is really with choosing a side and choosing what I want to do. in the end I choose the angel. in the end I choose the angel, but I was unsure at first because of how convincing the devil was at one point. the purpose of our play is to show the overcoming of conflict that an individual can face when having to choose to make a certain decision.while watching that part of the scene I seen that there was a lot less movement during that time and it was more stationary movement between the angel, devil, and myself. we could have added more blocking for that part instead of just standing there, and me sitting. My character is dealing with the conflict of being a night woman or not, because of the fear of disappointing her son. her only concern in making money to provide for her family until she realizes the her morality and teaching her son a compassionate lesson about life is more important. she doesn't want to feel like she is hiding something from her son and she also wants to be happy. She doesn't want to be miserable and uncomfortable everyday. the part of the scene that I think I did a good job on was showing comfort for my son in the beginning when the I had my monologue and portraying the fact that we don't communicate love to each other because I myself don't know what love is. A point where I do this is using the body language in the scene when I say "should I get the door or have my dignity". when I say this its clear that I've made my decision and i'm not going to get the door because i'm over thinking's it. I watched as I moved closer to the door it would have been more realistic if I had showed more hesitation and conflict with excepting my issues or fixing them.  I also use a comparison "between the day and night in a golden amber bronze" this was meant to show that I was stuck between night life and being a regular migrant worker for my son but i'm stuck between both and its the conclusion of me making a decision. towards the end when me, and my son were talking, I added my smoking a cigarette to show that I was stressed and overwhelmed, I seen that it gave that impression when I was on stage.

The words that stick out to me with the sound are words like plums, icebox, delicious, sweet, and cold. I think mainly because they are feeling words and the writer probably wanted he reader to feel the words. Also in the beginning the first stanza of the poem when the writer says the plums that were in the icebox had stuck out to me because of the T sounds that I got from the poem. Also the last stanza when the writer says so sweet and so cold. The so was repeated twice to emphasize the amount of sweetness and coldness. Also the s sounds. The meaning of the poem is that whomever has eaten the plums did because of temptation and the writer is trying to have he reader feel that temptation. They didn’t really want to eat them I’m assuming but get were really hungry and they want whomever those plums were to understand the reasoning behind it. They also want to be forgiven for what they did. Some images that come to my head is like a cooler of some sort with plums in there. Only he plum...

Play review: The romeo and juliet play at the park was very interesting. We were all laid out comfortably on blankets on the grass. The play started at 8:00. It was the original shakespeare play but with a twist. It started off with the scene in the village, and then went into a scene with juliet and her mother . In between the scenes they played more modern day music which i thought was entertaining because it gave the play more of a modern feel. During the play there was singing a little through out but it was mostly a straight play. The costumes that the characters in the play wore were accurate to the time period of romeo and juliet. There was a scene in the play where they foreshadowed the death of juliet when she wore a white robe that both tybalt and mercutio wore when they died. Because the play was a romance tragedy, there were two or three scenes where romeo and juliet kissed. In the play they danced a lot as well, but to keep the play a little modern the actors were danci...
