Drama Coursework - The Women In Black Analysis
4 star(s)As it was a professional production, I was constantly studying the play as it unfolded to determine how different types of drama medium had been incorporated to enhance the performance. Although the Women in Black consists of many characters, the company had employed just two actors; one actor to take the role of Kipps and another to take the role of 'the actor'.

3 star(s)The structure of the play was very central in the sense that it was all in one place but the actors changed from one plot to another, which intertwine in the centre of the club. The genre of this play is an observational comedy, which is, based on Godbers personal experiences, this links with lucky Eric's speeches on where Godbers put down his thoughts and experiences into the play and lets the audience learn about it in a spass content.
