    Play Review: The Rocky Horror Show at the 6th Street Playhouse

    On October 18th I went and saw The Rocky Horror Show at the 6th Street Playhouse. The show was playing from Sep 20 to Oct 13 and then got extended to show on Oct. 18th, 19th, 25th, 26th, and the 31st .The 6th street playhouse acting company did a marvelous job taping into their characters and expressing the emotions for every situation their character had. This play was based off of a movie called “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” about a very innocent and nonsexual couple who gets in a car wreck late at night while it’s raining. After this car wreck the couple goes to a house looking to borrow a phone and end up running into an alien transvestite mad scientist who has been building the perfect man to be his sex toy. With this man being born on their arrival the couple was in for a strange, magical, sexual and frightening experience.

    Movie Assessment: The Help

    This movie was chosen because it was viewed as a proper representation of the power of influence. It shows how large of a role influence can play specifically during times of adversity.

For some reason, Skeeter decided to shy away from the domestic aspect of her advice column and direct her focus to “the help” themselves. She was curious to know why a difference in skin…

    Chicago Persuasive Essay

    The Auditorium opera was placed in the inner court and simply took more than half of the structure. No signs symbolized the opera, as its only indicator was the tower which marked its entrance. The incredibly large auditorium consisted of more than four-thousand seats, which had been raised up to ten-thousand later on. This dramatic change of capacity made The Auditorium suitable for all kinds of events such as great political conventions. Technically, Sullivan had beaten the majestic traditional European style by designing an auditorium with no side seats. Moreover, he created a new concept in theater, he designed the auditorium in a circular shape that made it look like a stadium. This extremely smart and creative couple ,architecture and engineering, delivered the perfect appearance in the new type of ceiling work that was designed by the their perfect unity.
