Throughout the course of this essay I am going to discuss whether I think contemporary plays continue to experiment with form and content. Form means how we stage a play and perform it; this could be through mime, physical theatre, comedy, melodrama and many more.

On the pitch black stage the screen is lit with the image of an orange ribbon. Laura’s body becomes noticeable and the screen starts to fade out. The music fades. Laura is sitting on a red beanbag at the foot of the coffee table in the living room. She is wearing snow white crop top with blue marble colored mini skirt- her hair is pulled back into a tight fishtail braid. She is on her computer watching Keeping up with the Kardashians on Instagram. Amanda appears at the top of the stairs. At the

exactly what his family is like. Tom's father left years before the play takes place, Amanda only cares about herself, and Laura is crippled and painfully shy. For Tom, this means he has to help his family and stay at home because Amanda does not help Laura. Tom, Amanda, and Laura each try to escape reality and resort to things they love to do. Amanda has a very hard time raising Laura, so for Tom, this means that he has to help out a lot. While trying to pay the bills and take care of his family, Tom

that I enjoyed because of all the different aspects of the characters lives and views of things. For example Laura an older single mother who wants the best for her two grown children Laura who is 23 years old and Tom who is the older brother.

(Williams 1194). Laura also has her own struggles due to her shyness, “It was the lesser of two evils, Mother. I couldn’t go back up. I-threw up-on the floor” (Williams 1184). Amanda overlooks these instances in her kids life, all she sees is them overlooking her.
