    513 words
    False identities, lies and deceit, Lucentio from The Taming Of The Shrew and Tom from The Talented Mr. Ripley did all of these things. They both lied about what they like or what they did.

    Classic Tales of Tom Sawyer Grudgingly going through the motions of reading page after page of a book while pretending to be interested is not a pleasurable way to spend time. Reading a book with a weak plot, dull setting, and lifeless characters requires much effort. Unfortunately, many books are like this. Some books are not as difficult to read and enjoy, but only a tiny percentage of books deserve enough to wear the classification of "classic", like The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain...

    Set in the early 1940's in St. Louis, Missouri, "The Glass Menagerie" is a remarkable memory play written by Tennessee Williams. Performed by The Virginia Stage Company, this classic play follows the struggles of a broken family trying to survive in a world that is much more harsh than the delicate world of glass animals. From the memory of Tom Wingfield, played by Michael A. Newcomer, the audience sees firsthand the hatred Tom has for the life that he has to lead. As a factory worker and the so...
