Pride And Prejudice Act 3 Analysis

Improved Essays
WHAT WORKS:

Act one starts the script off with a solid, narrative foundation with a clear goal and opponent for Frank and his friends to go up against.

Frank and his friends take their plan serious but in an almost satire manner that suited the group dynamic extremely well.

Likewise, the youthful determination and passion about building the ultimate action figure collection for themselves and all the kids out that are unable to create a compelling lore for the reader audiences. Frank categorizes he and his friends as being these unruly bunch, but they seem to stand on a code of

Around page thirteen, Frank gives his speech in the tree house about how and why they should rally together to go up against Foreskither.

Besides a mention of his character around page 3, the reader/audience are not aware of his operation or his specific connection to Frank and his friends not being able to buy the action figures they want. In the first store sequence on page 10, when the boys don't have any luck in finding any action figures, they end up in a fight with a random guy in the feminine hygiene aisle and then inadvertently take their frustrations out on another character lurking near them.

Although the speech Frank's character gives on page 13 is constructed well, for him to suddenly start talking about the long-standing vendetta against him was confusing to follow. Secondly, by the end of act one, Frank and his friend start their takeover of the action figures shipments extremely well, which brings them all this great sense of self-established power going into act

    During the time of Jane Austen and Shakespeare, women were judged by the many different things that they did or didn’t do. One of the biggest things that came into play when determining the purity of a girl were her sexual relationships and if she was a promiscuous woman or not. In Much Ado about Nothing and Pride and Prejudice, we see that the promiscuity of male characters is treated differently and is seen as socially acceptable. Society has set and shaped standards causing women to have their own type of cultural rules to follow based off of their sexual impurity. When dealing with the same issue concerning men, it’s treated in a different way due to the fact that men had more power and received anything they would demand.…

    Intricate details on the scenery made the buildings feel authentic and inviting, grabbing my attention from the moment I walked in the theatre. The costuming was also fantastic, portraying the time period well and adding even more authenticity to the production. All of these individual aspects of a play production acted as an important role, but none of them caught my attention as much as the storyline. I was entwined in the story from the moment the stage lights came on, engulfing myself in the man-made atmosphere presented in front of me. The story went on to tell a tale of a greedy…
