Memory of Water paper

Because we're talking about theatre institutions, look at the play from the point of view of the theatre it's in.  What does it offer both those working on the show and those watching it?  Is it appropriate for a college audience?  What themes or characters can resonate with college students?  Don't forget to be specific – mention at least one design element and at least one performer.  Be specific about what works or doesn't work, and keep in mind what they seem to be trying to achieve and what the audience seems to feel.

Begin by briefly discussing what you think college theatre should do - what its purpose should be - and then take that, or part of that, and discuss Memory of Water with that in mind.
