Elf Play Analysis
The show Elf has been my first theater show ever and I thought it was a pretty amusing show. For example, the costumes of the actors did their job of what they wanted to portray with them.

As when the next part of a scene would happen, I liked that the music changed according to the mood it was trying to portray. The scene shifts are one of the parts that I enjoyed most because they would do the next scene in a quick pace that you would hardly notice
