Oil Spill By: Derek ajamian
Spatial Experience: When I first walked into the theatre I noticed the crucial details into the construction of the Constans theatre. In the actual auditorium it was very quiet and calm. I was in a very peaceful mindset in the theatre. I really enjoyed the voices of the actors and actresses in the beginning of the performance. I felt like I was at a movie when the lights dimmed and it was awesome. The size of the auditorium made me feel nervous so many strangers all there for that class. It helps people feel at peace and calm which can lead people to the good life. The nice amenities and details the designers put into the theatre is very impressive and I feel at home.
Social Experience: I went to the show with a group of friends I have in the class. I showered then got dressed and walked to the Reitz Union to meet my friends before. We then walked to the show together. Watching and being at the show with my friends made the show a lot easier to watch and I wasn't as nervous with all those people around me especially the strangers. Without shared experiences it wouldn't be possible to reach the good life. You need to make connections in life and on the journey of life being social and friendly will get you far. Shared Experiences also let you reflect more.
The Cultural and Intellectual Experience: The culture of the oil workers is specifically about the rig they are working on and everything about it. They need to know it and think about it all the time to successfuly fulfill their duties. Before the performance I had an idea that it happened but didn't know there were any deaths or the amount of money they lost from it. I really respect oil workers now and how much work they put into there job. This subject matter is not related to anything that has happened in my life.
The Emotional Experience: Spill offers the idea of coming clean or Katharsis because the play tries to show all the deaths and the sacrifices people went through for there jobs and families. Many Americans weren't notified about the injuries or deaths from this BP oil spill.. This play tries to bring all the hidden information about this tragic accident to light. I was very upset to hear about all the deaths from the horrific accident.
