Doug’s response to setting his mother’s cats on fire was ‘It was the fault of the psychiatrist...he told me I had an unresolved problem with my mother... and I better fix it’. Julie’s brief monologue in Act One also helps the audience to better understand her character and why she came to be in the institution; ‘twelve hours later that woman was still there, minus a few curls, if that. She hadn’t moved. Too scared I was going to snip everything except her hair’. The final monologue (spoken by Lewis) at the end of the play summarises the future of the patients, Nowra is able to comment on how bad things happen to good people simply because they are given the title of being ‘mad’.
In One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Ratched was the mean and threatening nurse who would tell her insane patients that they would electroshock therapy if they didn’t obey or if they were misbehaving. In Ten Days in a Mad House the nurses would tease

When W.S goes into his room he dims the television screen but can’t turn it fully off, as it says in chapter one “ Winston turned a switch at the sound on the telescreen sank somewhat, thought the words were still distinguishable. He knew it was watching him. This again is abnormal, nowadays it is against the law to spy on someone via there television but in this amazing novel George Orwell does write about people “spying” on people throughout the novel. My fourth dystopian detail is what the main character W.S says “every human is doomed to die.” Here, George Orwell has chosen his wording very carefully, giving Winston's statement as

The Crucible Essay Arthur Miller’s play ‘The Crucible’ is an allegory because of the McCarthy trials in the 1950’s that relate to the witchcraft suspicions in Salem. Throughout my essay I am going to explore and analyse the moments of tension that has a big influence on the audience during the play. At the beginning of the act in the setting the writer uses the stage direction ‘...the room is empty...’ When the curtains opened and all the audience could see was an empty room on stage, it made the audience question what was going to happen. As well as the act opening with an empty solemn room, the actors did not enter the stage floor immediately. They just simply read their lines in the wings of the stage.
First, there is the geography of Winston’s room: For some reason the telescreen in the living room was in an unusual position. Instead of being placed, as was normal, in the end wall, where it could command the whole room, it was in the longer wall, opposite the window. To one side of it there was a shallow alcove in which Winston was now sitting and which, when the flats were built, had probably been intended to hold bookshelves. By sitting in the alcove, and keeping well back Winston was able to remain outside the range of the telescreen, so far as sight went.
They opened there eyes like any other morning because for one split second they forgot that they were probably in the worst place on earth and that there was a very slim chance that there were going to get out alive which would probably b the best case scenario. To their surprise the whole room was cleaned head to tough which was disturbing because that would mean he had been the room while they were sleeping and there was a cover over them which was not there before they went to sleep. The intercom in the room ones again turned on and the same voice came out informing them on “Today’s daily activates” which was what Dale called the torture. Dale told them “Its day two of the fun, it’s time to wake up and begin. This is how it going to go you this time, Diamond is going to represent your survival or death today because she had the easy job last time” Diamond interrupts the intercom and screams “You were watching that , you are a sick twisted man why would you make me do this to my best friend?”.Dale answer with a laugh saying” I didn’t make you, you chose to I just told you that there would be a price to pay if you didn’t complete it and you luckily didn’t have to pay the price”.
He thought the tool looked like one of the weapons from his video game. He took the tool and went back into the house and went upside into his sister’s bedroom and hit his sister with the tool thinking he was still playing the game and she was just a character. He did the same with his mother but his father woke up in time to stop his son from doing the same to him. His dad locked him in their utility room and called an ambulance but by the time the ambulance arrived at the hospital the boy’s mother was seriously injured and his sister was already dead. This is just one example of what too much gaming can do.
