Reaction paper on theater act “Mr. Burns: A Post-Electric Play” By Anne Washburn

I want you to write 2 pages reaction paper as if you went to the play and watched it. I do not have the video for the play, but you can research it and understand more about the play and write the reaction paper like you seen it.

It is a reaction paper. Therefore, the focus of the paper should lie in how you perceive the different elements of the production, whether or not you feel they were successful, and most importantly WHY??

Questions about the Acting to think about and answer while writing your paper:

1.Was there a clear understanding of the overall storytelling? If not…why was there a breakdown in your opinion?

2.Was there clear relationship with the characters? Was their behavior and actions in line with who they intended to play?

3.Was there a strong conflict defined buy the director? Was the play’s problem clear?

4.Was there clear objectives being played? Did the actors make varied choices? Were the actors making choices that were active and sought to affect other characters on stage?

5.Did the actors move on stage in a way that seemed believable in the world and concept created?

6.Could you understand the dialogue through the show? Could you hear the actors?

7.How was the lighting used in the show to help pursue the storytelling? Was it affective? Was sound used to affect the storytelling? Was it used affectively?

-Typewritten, double-spaced, on 8.5″x11″ paper with 1″ margins. Correct spelling, grammar and punctuation are expected.

–Please make sure that your paper is in Third Person

I will provide some links for the act play to understand it better but like I said the reaction paper should look like you went to the play and saw it.
