Emily Richardson               The protagonists in all of these musicals change in some way. For example, Hamilton is about the rise and fall of Alexander Hamilton. Warhorse is about a farm horse who becomes a war hero. Evan Hanssen went from being afraid of society to being sure of himself.

The characters tend to represent parts of ourselves, and appeal to that sense. This is seen especially in Dear Evan Hansen through the main characters struggles with fitting in and finding your place in the world.

Each of the productions broke the mold in a different way.

Dear Evan Hansen and Hamilton both provide a new perspective on the story.

Warhorse seems to be based more on animals, instead of humans like the rest of the shows.

They all seem to be told in a musical form which might be because it appeals to people of younger ages, and it also might be because it holds the attention of the audience.

Drama: Explore      Something similar I saw in all three videos, was that all scenes represented something greater.

Drama, unlike other forms of literature, is written to be performed on a stage in front of an audience rather than read. All dramas contain key parts including a setting, characters, a problem, plot, suspense, point of view, and theme. As opposed to a movie that adds special effects for setting or a book that uses detailed description to express the surrounding, the setting of a drama has to use props, lighting, music and much more. The setting is very important because it sets a mood on stage and helps the audience understand the story better. The characters of dramas are developed by using motivational storylines and plots. All these productions share the similar idea of conveying impactful stories that can not be put into words but is better explained in a performance.

The setting is very important in each of these productions because they display what time or what the situation is. It shows whether or not it involves war, education, politics, or a certain place in history. The surroundings and clothing show examples of the themes.

I observed that in the 3 videos they used music to add to the tone of the scene. for example in Hamilton and dear Evan Hansen are musicals so they naturally communicate through song but even in the war house trailer their was music in the background that changed based upon the scene it was showing.

One similarity that I found in all three is that they are focused around a character who doesn't quite fit in. These themes are most prevalent in War Horse and Evan Hansen. In War Horse, the boy has a strange attachment to his wooden horse and in Evan Hansen, he has trouble fitting in with people in his class.

One similarity that I observed between these three productions is that they are presented in a way that the audience of today is able to understand easily through their own experiences and their interests. For example, Hamilton is told through elements of hip-hop and R&B, which is something a lot of people listen to, so they might be able to digest what is going on in a more enjoyable way. Evan Hansen goes through what a lot of kids go through today, so they are able to relate to him and appreciate the production more. Finally, War Horse highlights the unlikely bonds that can be made when you least expect it and can be attributed to a lot of the experiences of young people everywhere.

One observation that I can make about these videos is that they all have the main characters/focus be unique or different than normal people, even if they are very different ways. For example, in the War Horse trailer, the man is extremely attached to the horse, which is unusual for normal people. In the Evan Hansen video, Evan Hansen the main character in the movie is different and they talk about how the character finds a way to fit in or seem somewhat normal. Lastly in the Obama video, they talk about a man who created Hamlet and the rapping involved in it and how he was laughed at but ended up making it big time.
