Name of the play: 44 Plays for 44 Presidents

What the play is about: The play gave a peek inside the lives of 44 Presidents who held office in the United States. The play depicted their mistakes and successes when in power. Through this play, I got to know a lot about President George Bush and Barack Obama, who are considered to be the game-changing presidents in American history.

The best part about this play was its all-female cast. The play was performed by seven women who delightfully put forth the biographical surveys of the presidents of America. The playwrights of the show clearly did a great deal of research to come up with such interesting pieces of information of the presidents.

The narrative style was refreshing because it was difficult to predict what you might see next. Also, for people having limited knowledge about American politics, this play was a good medium to educate them on American politics. The play was most useful for those who were to cast their votes for the first time in 2016. I learned a lot about each president’s philosophy. For instance, I got to know about George Washington’s philosophy. He said “no man should seek the office of President; rather, the office should seek out the man devoid of personal ambition to serve.” The script and cast matched well for an exceptional play like this.

~Nuvole bianche~

By; Jacob Odom

The sun paints the sky with such colours as the golden riches of twilight and the pure white silks, such beauty...

Fleeting beauty found in the moments before dark, such beauty…

Those clouds, seen by children as the living imagination;

Watch as they lie down in the field and dream of the lives and joys to come in the future, that are found in their imaginations, such beauty...

Such purity, that is what is lost in life, the courage to imagine, to see the white clouds and dream of the simple joys of this life, such sweet sorrow....

Lost sight of the hopes, lost sight of the dream, the dream that brought such joy, where have the clouds gone…

Like twilight, such is the way of childhood, here for the fleeting moments of the rich gold and silver linings that crown the clouds, such hopeful beauty...

But as soon as the clouds are here, just as fast they hang with the thundering rain, such sorrow of a wasted dream…

Through the night, until the morning, when the sun shines again to bring back the hopes of a new dream, such beauty…

Fleeting is the twilight, but such beauty that the sun comes again, such hope…

And all to dream on Nuvole bianche, until the morning;

Nuvole bianche… Such hopeful beauty….

Instructions:

Take a minute to really study Ferdinand-Victor-Eugene Delacroix’s Horses Coming Out of the Sea. When writing your visual analysis remember to discuss the subjects and themes, as well as discussing what you see in the foreground, middleground and background.

Within the first part of your image analysis make sure to introduce the artist and title of the artwork, then describe what’s taking place within the image. Use the concepts we recently learned about to help break down the image itself. (It’s easier to say what objects you see and where you see them when you can refer to the different sections of an image.)

In the second part of your image analysis I want you to think of the narrative that’s taking place. (What’s happening in the image? What are the feelings that you feel are occuring in the image?) Then tell me your own feelings on this particular painting.

Think of the following questions while you write:

What all do you see within the painting, and where?
What is happening in the painting? (What’s the narrative?)
What are your thoughts on this particular piece?

What does symbolism mean?

Maya Lin designed what famous memorial?
