When Blanche and Stella are discussing Stanley, the sound of a passing train drowns out Blanche's critical remarks about him. Although the exact words are obscured, it's clear that Blanche expresses disdain for Stanley, questioning his character and suitability. This moment symbolizes the tension between the sisters and foreshadows the conflict that will arise from their differing views on Stanley. The train serves as a metaphor for the chaos and disruption Stanley brings into their lives.

In Santana's song "Smooth," the opening melody is played by the guitar, featuring Carlos Santana's iconic smooth and expressive style. The guitar is accompanied by a rich arrangement of percussion and other instruments, but it is Santana's guitar that prominently carries the melody right from the start.

Bernard Shaw's play "Pygmalion" departs from the traditional meaning of the Pygmalion myth by emphasizing social transformation over romantic idealization. Unlike the original myth, which centers on the sculptor's desire for the statue to come to life, Shaw focuses on the protagonist's journey of self-discovery and empowerment through education. The play critiques the class distinctions in society, suggesting that one's worth is not tied to social status or birth. Ultimately, Shaw presents a more complex relationship between the characters, where Eliza Doolittle's independence and growth challenge the notion of a mere romantic conquest.

In Arthur Miller's "The Crucible," the court reacts to Mary Warren's testimony with skepticism and hostility. When she tries to assert that the accusations of witchcraft are false and that the girls, including herself, were pretending, the court, particularly Judge Danforth, pressures her to conform to the prevailing narrative. The intense atmosphere and the influence of the other girls ultimately lead to her breakdown, demonstrating the court's unwillingness to accept dissenting voices amidst the hysteria. This reaction highlights the court's complicity in the mass paranoia and its prioritization of authority over truth.

In George Bernard Shaw's play "Pygmalion," Eliza's father, Alfred Doolittle, is characterized as a charming but irresponsible dustman who embodies a carefree, working-class ethos. He is opportunistic and somewhat lazy, preferring to live in the moment rather than adhere to societal expectations. Doolittle's character serves as a critique of the class system, showcasing the complexities of social identity and the desire for upward mobility. His humorous yet cynical outlook provides a stark contrast to Eliza's transformation throughout the play.

The four knights who killed Thomas Becket in 1170—Reginald FitzUrse, Hugh de Morville, William de Tracy, and Richard le Breton—fled to avoid repercussions for their actions. They sought absolution for their crime by going on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem. Eventually, they received pardons from King Henry II, but their actions led to significant political and religious upheaval, including Becket's canonization and the strengthening of the Church's power in England.

In the "Potter Waltz," the main melody is primarily played by the violin. The piece features a whimsical and enchanting quality that complements the magical themes of the Harry Potter series. The violin's expressive tone captures the essence of the waltz, making it a memorable part of the soundtrack.

Gratiano is the husband of Nerissa in The Merchant of Venice.

It depends on the actresses playing them. Often Helena is made to look less pretty, but there is no real reason to do so. She has low self-esteem, but that has nothing to do with how you look.

Christopher Sly is not married, but he is duped into thinking that a Pageboy dressed up like a woman is his wife.

The Merchant of Venice, despite its blatant antisemitism, is considered a 'romance' by top Shakespeare scholars because it has no decisive style as do most of Shakespeare's plays.

The play was Written by Anton Chekhov in 1896, I'm pretty sure it takes place in the late 1890's.

Desdemona is in many ways the opposite of Othello: of an old established Venetian family, white, inexperienced and very young. Othello is middle-aged, black, widely experienced and a man without any pedigree at all in Venetian society. Her differentness may have attracted him to her at the outset, but he must also have noticed her wonderful openness, clarity of vision, unshakeable fidelity, courage and kindness. These characteristics would win him for longer than just her novelty.

The idea of being attracted to someone different as a novelty is used by Iago to undermine Othello's self-confidence. Iago tells Othello that once the novelty wears off, Desdemona will turn from Othello to other men, and Othello, who is a very humble man, is tempted to believe this because he does not see the many virtues which Desdemona really loves him for: his wisdom, experience, humility, equanimity, courage, fair-mindedness and his deep and genuine devotion to her.

Faustus is at first happy to use the power Mephistopheles gives him, not just for his own enjoyment, but to cause pain and irritation to others. But his bargain with Mephistopheles was that after a certain time he would go to Hell. As the time approaches, he tries to weasel out of it by legalistic arguments, finding that the Devil's legalistic arguments are better than his. Ultimately he is damned, not because he agreed to it, and certainly not because he talked to Helen of Troy, but because he embraced despair and refused to ask God for forgiveness, believing that God would not forgive him. It is here that the message of the story comes through: don't despair of God's ability to save even the worst sinners. In most versions of the story, this is shown by having Faustus ask for and be granted mercy; in his play Marlowe turns this on its head and shows the result of despair, not hope.

Thornton Wilder won the 1938 Pulitzer Prize in Drama for his play, Our Town, set in Grover's Corner, New Hampshire (much of it in the town cemetery).
