I'm writing a paper for school on the influence of society (politics, social issues etc.) on shows and the effect they can have on people who see them, any ideas on specific shows to write about, or maybe point me to some sources I could use? Thanks

RENT

The thing is, besides being an utter toad of a human being, Riedel usually has the least knowledge of the topic in the room. He doesn't usually understand the content or approach of a show, and is always completely and unfailingly socially ignorant, which makes it really infuriating when Susan can't get a word in edgewise. A definitive mansplainer; it's always painful when he has female guests. I watch the show sporadically when I really want to see a guest, because it's the only theatre talkshow we have, but it would be so much better without this hateful clown in a dadcoat. (thanks ScaryWarhol)

Look at most of Kander & Ebb's work.

 

FUN Home.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Assassins...the history of audience reaction to that piece over time is particularly fascinating.
