For my character, I chose Rose. I chose her because she was on of my favorites and I loved always trying to guess what she was going to do. Rose was the wife of the main character, and thoughtout the play, she went throughn a lot. Such as trying to help her son, being a mother to the family, holding back from her dreams, being cheated on, raising a baby from his husband's affair, and the death of her husband.

Rose was very kind thoughtout the whole play. Even when she should be screaming and crying, she holds herself together and is always thinking about her family over herself. For example, on page 98, Rose says, "You not the only one who’s got wants and needs. But I held on to you, Troy. I took all my feel-ings, my wants and needs, my dreams . . . and I buried them inside you." This quote shows that she held herself back from living her life to the fullest because of Troy.

The one thing that I did not like about Rose is that she constantly  got walked on. She would never stand up for herself when it came to Troy. On page 102, it states, "ROSE: Troy, I want to talk to you.
TROY: All of a sudden, after all this time, you want to talk to me, huh? You ain’t wanted to talk to me for months. You ain’t wanted to talk to me last night. You ain’t wanted no part of me then. What
you wanna talk to me about now?" In this quote, you can see how she just takes it when she gets yelled and by him. If my husband said this to be, I could never be this calm.

Yes, to an extent. I love how she is also kind and always is doing what's right. However, there are just certain things that she should have talked about. I understand that it was a different time back then, but cheating is something that I could never tolerate, let alone stay with that man.

Rose cares about others, she is very selfless. She loves to help others and get them to a good place. She doesn’t get upset when she has to hold herself back in order to help others. A motto that relates to Rose would definitely be, “When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade.” I think this quote relates to her because she always chooses to stay positive and do what right. Unlike Troy, she never once complained about how bad her life is and makes it a point to do the right, noble thing.

I chose this artwork because it shows that, even if Rose isn't showing how broken she actually is. We can definitely infer it. This piece is by Henry Fuseli, who was born on 1741.

One theme I would use for Fences is the idea and pursuit of dreams. This idea is talked about thoughtout the whole play. Troy gets mad because he was ahead of the time and could not live out his baseball dreams, Rose couldn't live out her dreams because she is a African American woman in the 50s, and Cory football dreams were crushed after his father practically made him quit the team. This can be shown on page 97, when Troy says. "Do you understand, after eighteen years I wanted to steal second." The quote shows that Troy justifiesw cheating on the fact that he couldn't live out his life to the fullest since his dreams were ruined after no being able to play professional baseball.

Cross my heart, hope to die
To my lover, I'd never lie (I love you, baby)
Said "Be true", I swear I'll try
In the end, it's him and I
He's out his head, I'm out my mind
We got that love, the crazy kind
-Halsey, Him and I, 2017

I chose this song because the song show a toxic relationship, yet in the end, the girl still believes it is them against the world. The lryics also say that the man is out of his mind, and so was Troy. Yet, Rose and this women will stay with the man forever,
