The voice, how they projected their voice, grabbed the attention of the audience. The sarcasm was easily noticed and able to pick up on which made the audience more engaged into the play. The audience all had that catharsis moment. I was able to look next to me and across the seating and see everyone laughing at the same jokes, and following the characters.
