In general, the breakdown of the paper should be: (Please follow this breakdown)
Introduction
Identify the goal of the play*
Overall impression of the play
(These above 3 items should collectively be between 15% and 20% of your critique)
Summary of Plot. (This should be no more than 30% of you critique)
Spelling and Grammar
Production Elements – 4 required (Acting, Directing, Set Design, Lighting and Costumes) (This should be the largest portion of your paper / 30-35%)
Conclusion (at least 50 Words) Please restate the goal of the play and if it was achieved)
I am looking for YOUR opinion and analysis of the play. There are no right and wrong answers when it comes to your opinion and analysis. The only thing you can really do wrong is to not analyze the play (see bottom of page 23).
The three biggest mistakes that students make are:
1-write too much about the storyline (plot) and too little on production elements.
2-not write 2,000 words.
3-not have an opinion
*The goal of a play is what the audience is supposed to learn or take away from the performance. The goal of most plays is something deeper than “The goal was to entertain the audience” or “The goal was to make you laugh”. Although, for some comedies and some musicals, the goal might be able to be summed up so succinctly. Even in those cases, you could explain why you think the goal was that simple.
For Romeo and Juliet, the goal might be: To make the audience think about the impact of 2 two family’s hatred of one another on their children.
For Star Wars the goal might be: To show that good will conquer evil, and do it the edge of your seat, adventurous style.”
For Black Panther the goal might be: To show the audience that fear of the unknown is not a reason to hide behind your borders, that open sharing of culture and advancement helps everyone.
Please review the following play critique. The word count is less than your requirement as this was for another class with a different expectation.
