I'd be asking for a refund for the art critique course. <br />I saw this play and it was fantastic,;as are all productions at this theatre. I guess for every full house there is always going to be at least one philistine in the audience ( or one cheese platter short of a cracker!)Janenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7077130501528787188.post-13658751817726740092012-08-01T17:38:55.191-07:002012-08-01T17:38:55.191-07:00It amazes me that you were attending an art critiq...It amazes me that you were attending an art critique class at the time of writing this. I sincerely hope that you did not submit this effort to your class. <br />Since you have decided to criticise unpaid volunteers I believe that it is acceptable that you receive criticism for something that you are obviously not paid for, writing. <br />The first part of the blog explains the story of how the narrator came to attend the performance at Cronulla Arts Theatre. It is a charming introduction explaining in detail how the narrator needed to see a play and by chance was given the opportunity. An introduction is generally used to draw us in and make us want to keep reading. I feel the writer let us down here, there were too many "and then's" and "he said, she said". <br />It was only further down the page that I realised that the writer was indeed a genius in disguise, the use of primary school story writing technique was a fantastic comparison to the actors ability to play a character seemingly years younger than himself.<br />When we move on to the review itself we are greeted by rambling as the narrator stumbles through the story. Again I am in awe of the writers ability to parallel the manic and sometimes turbulent youthfulness of the characters through the primary school essay writing technique. <br />At this point I am on the edge of my seat, I'm drawn in and ready for the next part. Unfortunately fellow readers, I was let down. It is obvious at this point that the writer has not down the research necessary to write a review. By not being able to distinguish between character flaw and performance flaw she has unfortunately put criticism on the actors for speech impediments instead of realising that the character had a speech impediment. It was at this point that I tuned out and realised that all the beauty I had found in this piece of writing really wasn't there in the first place. It seems that the writer was not a genius as I first thought but merely a poor writer. <br />The best part about reading this review was the end of it, the writer did not provide a cheese plate, literally or metaphorically. <br />I hope that you have not found my review of your review to be too harsh and appreciate the fact that by using volunteers real names that you won't mind all your friends and families reading this.<br />I regularly attend the Cronulla School of Arts and appreciate every thing that these great people do for the community. I hope that you continue to support the theatre and that you also work on improving your writing next time you write a review.Jamesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7077130501528787188.post-80011697558984267652010-09-28T19:37:12.061-07:002010-09-28T19:37:12.061-07:00Found you while wandering the web.
