Essay Instructions: This is a junior level college essay for a drama class.

You must read the following texts before beginning the essay.
Oscar Wilde's "The importance of being earnest"
Shakespere's "Taming of the Shrew"
George Bernard Shaw's "Pygmalion"

This essay is 3 pages, make sure that each of the following questions are answered using a page and a half.

1) We studied Shakespeare's *Taming of the Shrew* and then we studied three adaptations of his play. How do these adaptations demonstrate that the family tensions in *Taming fo the Shrew* are continually relevant across time and cultures? How do the adaptations demonstrate that plays must or can adapt to address differing audiences? In this answer you should compose a thesis answering the questions, discuss how family tensions are portrayed in Shakespeare's original, and then discuss how the adaptations maintain and adjust his story.


2) Oscar Wilde's *The Importance of Being Earnest* and George Bernard Shaw's *Pygmalion* were written within approximately a decade of each other in England. Class and manners are important themes in both plays. What are the plays saying about the British class system and social mores? Do they have similar messages or do they differ on their portrayals of the upper classes? What comedic techniques do the twoplays use to impart their message to audiences? What formal qualities do the written version of the two plays share?

Thank you, if you have any questions let me know.
