After reading the presentations, (The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde) I would like for you to write a short essay.
Choose one of the theatrical eras discussed one of the Theatre History Group Projects.
Put your self in the place of someone going to one of the plays and write a letter to a friend which contains the following information:
What kind of person would you be in this era? What kind of work do you do?
What are you wearing to watch this play?
When you finally take your seat (or standing position) what does the theatre look like?
What do you think the differences were from the person you were pretending to be attending a play in their era and you attending a play in the present time?
