The Play and Journal 12 Instructions

Your last journal is a review of the play. Remember to save your ticket stub and program and turn them in with the journals.

Just a some quick tips on what I'm looking for in Journal 12:

In your journal about the play, review the following like a movie reviewer.

Plot - What is the overall story and does it make sense?

Characters - Are they realistic and interesting?

Dialogue - Does the dialogue seem authentic and help explain the plot?

Staging - Does the staging add to or detract from the meaning of the play?

Theme - What is the overall message of the play?

Tell me what you think of each element and give examples to support your judgments.
