Thanks alot Alex!!! Just cos I beat you on last year's australian theatre essay...and given that you beat me on most other things, if Im a nerd what does that make you, huh???

Thanks! Yeah...I noticed that when doing my half yeary, I don't think I had my accent sustained well enough either..but I don't want to copy Winona's accent because its still very American but Abigail arrived from Britain so her accent would actually have been British. So Im trying to locate...

Watched the movie, don't want to take on that interpretation of the character for my monologue and the accents used there are American which is historically inaccurate as the American accent wasn't developed at that stage - but thank you anyway.

I've seen that before....my stomach churned, however it would help heaps all the same - thanks Birdy!

NO!... No poems are allowed, they specify this on the actual exam paper - it is very rare if at all, you would be allowed to do a poem. So yeah, you will get marked down if you do a poem, and it specifies a narrative.

Faith is more of an inner journey as opposed to imaginative - its about the changes that occur in oneself as they put faith in something or someone.

Hey Alex and Birdy, its me Kayla - another CPAHS Student. For those wondering Im doing Abigail Williams from the crucible for my monologue. Actually, I just finished memorising it for the half yearlies Yay!!!... Question: would anyone know where to find a 17th century British Accent, I have...

Remember that with the theatre of the absurd all action that takes place (well in waiting for Godot and the Dumb waiter anyway) is taken to fill in the passing of time. Nothing can be done about the human condition, which I suggest is what its referring to. Ultimately we can sit and watch time...

Change is the key theme of summer of the 17th doll. It is reflective of australian society in that australia in the fifties was at the point of leaving the australian bush legend in the past and moving towards the city and the city values. What we see in the summer of the 17th doll is Olive...

With my poetry, I'm linking all of them together under a common theme, but im writing each one with a different style I've researched. I've looked at different poets styles and also researched into my inspiration and subject matter. At this stage I've written two of my poems, however I spent a...
