Play Meeting
Storyboard Text
- Oedipus: Oh how nice of you all to come meet ME for dinner
- Lysistrata: Hush why don't you Oedipus! You men are here for the lady aren't you?
- Oedipus: Oh how nice of you all to come meet ME for a nice dinner
- Starting off, I felt it was most appropriate for Oedipus to begin the conversation as he was a King and views of himself highly. I began with a conflict of gender as each had respective views on the subject
- Lysistrata
- Ernest: Oh dear, everyone calm down let us not forget what we are here for. Which is ofcourse an amazing meal.
- Hamlet: You are just a woman! Thou shall not speak to me with all that makeup on!
- Oedipus: Well back in our day, women are at the bottom of the barrel, Who needs them when you can have a society of all strong men
- Lystrata: Well I'll have you know, where I am from women like ME are viewed as strong and great leaders
- I felt it was important to describe each views as the subject, allowing for each to understand each others eras as there may be similarties
- Ernest: So what do you say, now that it has become a topic at hand, how are women viewed from your eras of life
- Hamlet: Areth thou to really question me after what I just stated? Lend me your ear and understand this, they are powerless
- Oedipus: Aside from this, you know Hamlet we are very similar you know
- Lysistrata: I would very much appreciate if we could leave this matter alone
- This panel is a lot more simpler than others, it focuses more on establishing a connection between two characters as well as showing how Ernest uses comedy to make light of the situation.
- Ernest: I would say that you are both fools! Ha!
- Hamlet: My good friend how so?
- Oedipus: An honest answer, but stilll wrong. We are both truth seekers are heart!
- Lysistrata: You guys do not know anything about the truth, if you did you would respect us women more!
- After finding what they have in common, I took the opportunity to describe how it compares to Ernest as well as throwing in action from Lysistrata, as her truth could be seen as different from the others.
- Ernest: Yes the truth, something that I tend to hide for the best from others.
- Hamlet: Ah yes, I do suppose we are, as truth is what our hearts most desire.
- Oedipus: Listen to me. Why not talk about something we all share.
- Lysistrata: For once I can agree with you Hamlet, indeed we are heroes.
- Here we build a connection between all 4 characters, the characteristic of being a hero. I believe if they were willing at a table together, they would want to know something they ALL share in common as small talk
- Ernest: Yes but what would that be, the closest thing I could thing of is we are basically all males but we are not.
- Hamlet: Tis plain to the eye, we are all tragic heroes my dear fellow.
- Lysistrata: I may not be as tragic, but I am for sure a hero to all women of Greece, fighting for out rights
- Oedipus: Ah yes, my comrades the same as I, carrying the burden of being a tragic hero how unpitiful
- Here we finish up the conversation by exemplifying how they portray this characteristic. Even though they are all similar, they are still different. Again I included humorous tone from Ernest as it is a major part of his character.
- Ernest: I for one can attest to that idea, I struggle myself between two personalities unsure of which is best.
- Hamlet: Indeed I am one as well, my only flaw of procrastination eventually led to my downfall what a shame.
- Ernest: I believe I smell our food! Hold off on meaningless conversation while we dine!
