Themes

2005: The Taming of the Shrew -- only after the show is over I can fix the pages to use in classes...

Servants and peasants -- black, white, grey (death and monks), red, yellow, basic strong colors. Dons and Donnas -- gold, sylver.
It starts on the first day of "Passion Week" (carnival of death) and ends on Sun? First act starts with dancing chorus (Gipsy Kings, slow), ends with the faster piece. Act II -- dancing (both male and female choruses), the end is the mad dancing (hell).
Ritual: sex = death. [ Comic "Death" appears: first dance, last, Father's fight with Death -- and Commander scenes? ]
"Don Juan" = deathwish = male... Duels. Man is War. With himself, God, Life, World (list)
"Dancing in the Church" scene (where?)
Chants
Smoke, smell, priests [ Death ]
What about different tastes? DL was too intellectual. How to bring the flesh downstage? He is hungry eats all the time: apple, orange, what else? They drink (red, white)...
[ go to script.vtheatre.net/themes for more on self, god, gender and so on themes ]
Preshow music = intrumental only!
Where does "his" voice come in? Male cry, male's sound (live guitare sound on stage -- start with it before any recorded music, see sound files on DJ pages}.

Woman v. Man

Where is the moment, when DJ alone on stage, his serious face.

Next: Themes in script.v

Where is the scene of his duel with God? Bells (sound list).

New Pages: cast
