The Nether

The showing of The Nether was actually a good play. It was about a man (Sims) who created a virtual world for people who wanted to express themselves and not be judged (well his intentions). After all The Nether didn’t agree with this “virtual world”. Sims was being interrogated by detective Morris about his technically “illegal” activities. Morris argues that we should be able to express our fantasies without consequences. Throughout the play the roles of the characters actually come out, the detective was actually Mr. Woodnut trying to find out all the information about the virtual world. Doyle which was the little girl Iris in the virtual world, he was playing a different sex role which we had found  out because Iris said she won award in science.

Personally  I think the play could’ve improved on props. I say this because when Iris described her bed room we had to picture it ourselves, maybe they could’ve made one of the ones a bed room. Also when they explained the garden maybe with a fake tree to represent a sapling and a poplar. When they explain the house he lived in maybe have a little representation of it.

The play was good overall. I liked the lighting which was good because it wasn’t too dim or too bright you could see everything clearly. I like when they made the stage dark in between scenes and played the video game music in the background. It made me realize that they made it seem more virtual for the audience. The pitch of their voices were loud enough for you to hear even if it was a part not too dramatic. The emotion of the characters were good they played their parts really well to act as if they were the characters.
