Theme
Take two plays that we have read in class, and write a 3-5 page essay exploring one major theme that those works share. For example, you could look in a theme of revenge in Triffles and Words, Words, Words, the theme of death in Tape and Hamlet, or the theme of love, growing up/rites of passage, family, gender, the American Dreamt individuality vs. society in any of the works.
*Be sure to use specific examples from the works and cite them properly. The paper should be MLA format, double spaced, times new roman font, and 12 size font.
*Also, use at least one outside scholarly source. You will not receive a proper grade on this paper if you do not do any research. You may also look at the author’s biographies to make connections to their works and other work.

-Tape by Jose Rivera
