England’s Elizabethan theatre
• • no roof day-time performances very little scenery men played women’s parts clowning and sword combats a stage jutting into the public a trumpet calling the audience to the performance
1) The stage 2) The footlights 3) The stalls 4) The boxes 5) The dress circle 6) The balcony 7) The gallery
As for me, theatre is … - one of the entertainments - way to have a rest - a waste of time - place to escape from reality
Have you ever visited the real theatre?
Theatrical performances Comedy Opera Serious play for theatre Play for theatre, when we couldn’t have laughing Tragedy Dramatic composition with music Musical Dramatic performance by a group of dancers, without a dialogue or singing Drama Operetta Ballet Music and dancing take part in the plot Serious genre, full of passion and ending with death Short, light musical comedy
Leisure WHAT is this life if, full of care, We have no time to stand stare? — No time to stand beneath the boughs, And stare as long as sheep and cows: No time to see, when woods we pass, Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass: No time to see, in broad daylight, Streams full of stars, like skies at night: No time to turn at Beauty's glance, And watch her feet, how they can dance: No time to wait till her mouth can Enrich that smile her eyes began? A poor life this if, full of care, We have no time to stand stare.
