This influenced Juliet’s decision to marry Romeo, making Nurse’s actions partly at blame for Juliet’s fate.

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 the Magic Flute, Pamina is divided by her mom on what to do. Should she listen to her mom, the queen of the night, and kill Sarastro or should she defy her and do the right thing? Just as Luke was divided by his dad, Vader, Pamina is struggling over the choice her mom presents her. This theme of good vs. evil can also be extrapolated to more themes like truth and light vs. want of power and others. In the opera, Sarastro represented light and truth, while The Queen of the Night represented want of power.
An old lady has just told me that I speak exactly like Queen Victoria. (Shaw67)” This is a key moment in the play, because the reader can see Eliza’s true desire to ultimately fit in with the elegant women of the higher social class . Before this moment, Eliza wanted to be compared to the queen, but now she realizes she sticks out for, in her mind, the wrong reasons. Prior to her metamorphosis Eliza was alienated by society for her barbaric nature, but after she learns the importance of phonetics she is once again alienated for being exceedingly eloquent. This is ironic because the once poor uneducated flower girl has surpassed the social status of the women she once envied.
