your own interpretation should be supported by those readings, so i'm assuming you're taking the same point of view as those?

how long is your essay btw

you need 2 productions for monday but they can both be relatively similar.
also i think the syllabus wants your own interpretation supported by a reading rather than the other way round
and lol that is heaps on one theme! wish i could write that much on just one

just write approx.3-5 quotes for each readings and interpretations of the play. e.g. Eyre's reading is dysfunctional family therefore...'the love scene' is emphasised...some shit like that. Well, at least that's what i'm doing. i'm getting the original+2 other plays and trying to include one or two critic's comments since its 'critical study' Eh. Good Luck Yall

way i've done my modb is used order chaos as the overarching idea, with smaller notions like sight/blindness and nature thrown in when they arise.

as long as u include all the necessary syllabus elements (which u must include REGARDLESS of what is asked) u should do decently...

don't listen to wendus, you don't "need" productions at all.
