Zach hill ib lit and performance

The play is called “The curious Incident of the dog in the nighttime” by Mark Haddon.  I viewed it November 18th on YouTube.  I also saw willjam’s solo performance because he sent it to me. The story is about a boy with autism. He finds his neighbors dog dead in her front yard with a pitchfork in it. Christopher goes to the dog and holds it and a cop comes and questions him, he ends up having to spend a couple hours in jail. His dad comes and picks him up from jail and tells him not to try to solve the mystery of who killed the dog    Which of course makes Christopher want to very badly especially because a part of his autism is that he loves a project.

Look at two different videos of poem performances (I posted them on the blog). What do they emphasize about the original poems and how do they get you to think differently about the original poems? What do the performances accomplish in bringing the poems to the stage? Be specific and be sure to read over the original poem and refer to it. This will count as a quiz grade. 300-600 words.   Video 1 I Too.  This poem emphasized everything about the poem because the narrator just read the entire poem. I think the kids in the video emphasized that they will feel ashamed for making the darker brother sit in the kitchen when people are eating.
