These shining lives

 Attend and carefully observe These shining lives and write a critique or review of this production. You should critique the production soon after seeing it, while the details are still fresh in your mind. Your critique should touch on the successful – and the less successful – acting performances, design elements, and directing choices, as well as the overall production. • For the acting, consider which performances moved you emotionally, which actors demonstrated considerable skill, and which actors effectively conveyed the given circumstances of their characters. • For the design – scenic, lighting, costumes, sound, projections (if applicable) – consider which elements were aesthetically appealing, which elements gave you a clear sense of time and place, and which elements enhanced the mood or emotional quality of a moment. • For the directing, consider whether the production was well paced, whether everything on stage felt like it belonged to the same world, and whether the overall storytelling was clear.
