What is the effect of having one person play all of these characters

Please addresses ONE of the following two prompts in a paragraph or two, for up to 3 POINTS in your Final Critical Journal:

1.  The play achieves its social message through a contrast of presenting  various points of view about the uprising/riots. Looking back through  the actual script I posted, or remembering the film, can you find  specific pairs of characters whose points of view contrast with one  another? Please describe how these characters’ perspectives on the riots  contrast (you may juxtapose as many pairs as you like, but the  important thing is to be specific and explain HOW they contrast, as  thoroughly and specifically as you can), and then try to explain where  the author’s own viewpoint lies, in relation to these characters. What  is HER point of view? What is she trying to tell her audience? Does she  seem to sympathize with some characters more than others? How so? How  can you tell? You may feel free to reference the actual video we saw,  but I expect you to have read through the script as well. Use specific  quotations to support your point of view.

2.  What is the effect of having one person play all of these characters?  In the DRAMATISTS’ PLAY SERVICE version of the script that I posted on  blackboard, Smith makes suggestions about how this play could be  performed by a cast of six actors. Do you think this would make the  piece more effective, or less? What is powerful theatrically (in terms  of the play’s social  message) about one person doing all of these roles? What would be lost  by having more than one person perform the show? What would be gained?  Use specific quotations from the play script to bolster your argument if  you choose to respond to this prompt.

Please  answer one of these questions THOROUGHLY, in a substantial paragraph or  two, as this entry will be worth up to 3 points in your CJ.
