like criticizing any one,” he told me, “just remember that all the people in

The Great Gatsby ........
Watching the play on Thursday night was a fun thing to do . However, I
would still have some comments to make.
The up-side
of the play....
I would say that
the entire play was a great one. The actors, the dancers and the crews was fantastic.
They were working fast and great. The actors were so into their acting and I was shocked to
see how my girl / bestie / classmate / was so good in portraying the character
, Daisy. The flow of the show was very good. You can see that they worked very
hard to put on the show. The falling down , the laughter and the pun was clear
and very real. I got so happy that the
actors played the characters so well. The ending was so good as Carraway
focussed his emotions at one point that made me teared.( Not every play does
that)
The Down side of the Play.
I don’t
really like the start of the show. An opening should be interesting and
eye-catching. But the opening was a little blunt. I can’t fake my thoughts
about them. I would expect that the music faculty would play something from the
Jazz Era instead of Jason Mraz (Lucky). It is not what I would expect. I need
more soul too. A little more of Aretha Franklin. The momentum of the entire
play was a little slow. I felt happy
that the end of the play was better than the beginning.The voice projection was
a little bad. But the character . Baker was good at the voice projection.
