Here we go:
- Irony:
- One examply of irony in this play is that Henry Williams spent all this time being a slave and escaping, but then dies when he is free.
- Another example of irony is how Waldo is supposedly doing all of this stuff to stop the war and to get peace, but then goes into a war with Henry.
- Also, Waldo gets mad at Henry for being removed from Concord but saying how things should be, but this entire time Waldo has been in England saying how things should be.
- Characters:
- The most important, of course, is Henry. I would choose Johnny Depp to play Henry just because Henry believes that living simpler is actually smarter, and Johnny Depp plays a lot of characters that may seem mad on the outside but are actually quite smart, like Henry. Also I just like Johnny Depp :)
- Waldo is also a very important character, and I think that Richard Griffiths should play him because for one, he is old, and also he plays a lot of characters that look like they're doing good on the outside, but really are not doing very much on the inside, like Waldo.
- I would say that another important character is John, and I think that Colin Firth should play him because John is a very peaceful and calm character and, well, Colin Firth just seems right for the job. Of course, all of my actors would have to adopt American accents ;)
- I think that Henry's protests are succesful in the end because the war ended. It may not be because of his protests, but his goal was acheived nevertheless.
