Subject - Drama theatre Questions

1. What is Art and how do you define it?

2. Who is Lin-Manuel Miranda and why are his achievement important in your opinion?

3. What makes a good play and how do you tell if a play is good?

i need help ASAP!!

1) Art is an expression of oneself, it can be through many mediums like dance, music, photography, painting, drawing etc.

2) Lin-Manuel Miranda is a composer, lyricist, and actor best known for his award winning musical "Hamilton." Another one of his works "In the Heights," is being put into motion picture this coming year with wide acclaim. Lin-Manuel uses his art to tell the story of his people, of immigrants, of New Yorkers, and of himself.

3) There are 'standards' for a good play, snappy lines, good pacing, talented actors, you can tell when a play is good by the sum of its parts, but for it to be VERY good and touch even those who know nothing about theatre, it has to have heart.

i'm not sure i completely understand your question, but i will do my best.

i think the answer you are looking for is sequence. (see below)

a repeated melodic fragment would be best defined as repetition, while repeated chords (different or the same) could be a chord progression. however, you then mentioned the chord and melodic fragment beginning on higher or lower pitches, in that case, the answer could be best defined as a sequence. the definition of a sequence is as follows: "the restatement of a motif or longer melodic (or harmonic) passage at a higher or lower pitch in the same voice."

let me know if this !
