The genre for "Captured By Feministas" I think is HIGH COMEDY. Because women rights are some peoples life problems and there are issues with that subject. But it also had some comedy mixed in with rick being a player. The genre for "You Know How To Whistle, Don't You?" is TRAGICOMEDY because there were mix feelings some were kinda humorous but also it had some sad parts to it, serious lines, hurtful lines, and desperate lines as well. But the mixture of the emotions and the words used made it kinda funny to me.
I think the diction was on point. The play sorta told you how to read each part so it gave you an idea of how to get a feel for the play. The wording and different dialogue used for both plays to me was great while reading I myself felt as if I was in the play playing the parts.
The theme for "Captured By Feministas" I think was that thre are some men that treat women wrong and think they shouldn't have rights and whatnot and they should respect them and although some men say they will or do some will just always by players or dogs just like at the end of the play. The theme for "You Know how To Whistle, Don't You?" to me was that the cuban people don't have a lot of freedom and all they would like is to be free that's why the girl at the end just said I'll sleep with you for free because it wasn't because of the money all she wanted was to atleast feel and pretend that for just that moment that she wasn't a prisoner in her own country.
The protagonist for "Captured By Feministas" were the womyn that captured rick because all they wanted was for him to respect them as human beings and to stop disrespecting them and treating them like crap. And the antagonist ofcourse is rick the womanizer that all he thinks about is intercourse. The protagonist for "You Know How To Whistle, Don't You?" I think is the cuban government. Even though they really didn't have a part I think they are the antagonist because they are the reason that the poor young lady would lie with an american for one night just to feel like she isn't a prisoner and can pretend for once that she is a free woman. The protagonist being the main character the woman who just wants to be free and not be a captive.
My opinion for "Captured By Feministas" is that its a great womans rights play with some humor but also sends a message that men should treat women as equals not as a piece of ass. My opinion about "You Know How To Whistle, Don't You?" Is that the cuban government sucks. Castro needs to let the cuban people go or just die so all his tyranny can crumble because what he is doing is unfair to cubans.
I think the spectacle of "Andres Mother" is like at a funeral or outdoors and I think its a symbolic of them just saying their goodbyes to a loved one in a peaceful manner with the balloons in hand
The protagonist I think was cal because even though andres mother seemed shocked to hear those things about her son he did the right thing by letting her know what was going on with her son and his life before he died. I think the antagonist is andre reason bein because he shouldve been truthful with his mother and he didn't really know what she would think of him being gay and he let cal tell his mother what he's been wanting to since he knew he was gay.
I think that at first when she was silent when cal was telling her about her son being gay and the aids she didn't approve and was shocked with silence to hear things like that about her son. But at the end when she pulled the ballon back and kissed it and watched it rise she didn't care that he was gay she just wanted her son.
I think the them in "Andres Mother" is that you got to be true to yourself and feelings and even if its your mother you can't be living a lie for their approval. You gotta tell them how you feel not how they want you to feel.
