Prior to Mrs Birling re-entering the play in Act II the audience only have this short description and the beginning of Act I to develop a first impression of her. ‘His wife is about fifty, a rather cold woman and her husband’s social superior.’ Having read this description and with Act II about to begin the audience would expect Priestley to reinforce this original description with cold and inhospitable behaviour towards the Inspector. In contrast to their expectations she greets him with a warm welcome. ‘(smiling, social) Good evening, Inspector.’ However gradually throughout Act II Priestley does present Mrs Birling’s character to mirror this original description and the audience are reassured that their original impressions of Mrs Birling’s character were right all along. During Act II Priestley presents the character of Mrs Birling through her use of language and tone, her reactions towards her daughter Sheila, and her harsh viewpoint of Eva Smith.
She kept the class up and interested in the topic. Dr. Ingram’s word choice was great as well. If I had to grade Dr. Ingram on her presentation, I would give her an A because not only was she engaging with the audience, she made it interesting. Everything that was presented was easy to understand, and if she used an unfamiliar word, she made sure we knew what it meant. Dr. Ingram inspired not only me, but the other students to want to take a trip to Egypt one day, and experience the same adventures that she
When Celie initially looks at Shug’s photograph she is amazed by Shug's lavish appearance. Shug reminds Celie of her “mama.” Celie compares Shug to her mother countless times throughout the novel and it is evident that ever since Celie lost her mother, Shug is the closest thing she has to a mother in her life. Celie looks up to Shug and admires her not only as a mother like figure but also as a sister, a teacher, and a friend. Shug greatly influences Celie's personality and the decisions she makes. Shug is the primary reason why Celie gains a sense of self identity and importance in the book.
The writer showed her respect and miss of her writing teacher with simple but descriptive words. She narrated the previous memories between her teacher and her detailed and vividly, making we readers see and feel what she saw and experienced, just like Miss Dennis has taught

She has changed a lot since the beginning of the play. Keeping a smile on my face throughout this scene is quite important. It shows to the audience that Katherine, now tamed is really happy. She can truly enjoy life and it’s brilliance to the fullest now that she has someone who really has shown her love and care and she has learned to show those feelings back. When Petruchio says the line “What duty they do owe their lords and husbands” I would want the other female characters to gasp in shock at what Petruchio said but as Katherine I would not gasp and rather ponder for a moment putting my hand up to my face to clearly show that the character is honestly thinking about this.
It is a collection of 3 stories each with a dark twist and an intro and an outro. The script is based around storytelling with narrators in each story as well as characters. We chose Kneehigh as our Practitioner as we could use Kneehighs use of audience interaction in our play. For example, in the intro, an idea was that we could all be dotted around different areas of the room when saying our lines and delivering them to a particular member of the audience. Our group work together well to produce a coherent style and are not afraid to experiment, take chances and eventually change or reject ideas which is an important factor in performing Kneehigh Theatre.
I believe Mrs. Williams left an impact on every child who was blessed enough to have her. When compared to a few other teachers I have had, there is a very practical reason why Mrs. Williams sticks out. Her thoughtfulness and cheeriness top the charts. Mrs. Williams has influenced me so greatly that I have decided to become an English teacher. I only hope to be half as great as her.
Priestley wanted to make the most of these changes. In the first few lines of the play we see that there are a few signs suggesting that everything in the Birling Household is not perfect. At the beginning of the play we see Mr Birling acting in a very tense and anxious manner in order to impress Gerald. Mr Birling saying “Giving us the port Edna? That’s right.
The time and care she takes in choosing the best possible word to describe Wilbur each time shows us she is really genuine and wants her writing to reflect what she honestly feels about her friend. When Wilbur doubts himself and calls himself an average pig, Charlotte simply replies that he is “terrific” to her and “that’s what counts” (91). In her heart, she knows that Wilbur is terrific and she does not refrain from being assertive in giving him a compliment so as to boost his confidence. She knows her writing would have an impact and the very next day, “everybody stood at the pigpen and read the word, over and over, while Wilbur, who really felt terrific, stood quietly swelling out his chest and swinging his snout from side to side” (96).
