Broadway Theatre Paper! Please need help

The purpose of this assignment is to help you use writing to deepen your understanding of a play (or plays) that we have read, to develop empathy for a character, and to provide the opportunity for you to explore further some ideas discussed in class.  Your goal is to demonstrate connections between various elements in a play (or plays); for example, characters, setting, themes, etc.  Your ideas need to be expressed in a clear thesis statement, and supported with a lively, well-developed and organized discussion using relevant textual examples.  Your topic may be an extension of ideas examined in your response paper, a response to an issue discussed in class, or a new idea altogether.  You must focus your discussion on a play (or plays) that we've examined in class this semester.

Play (or plays) that we have read:

A Doll's House (ibsen)

The Glass Menagerie (Willams)

An Enemy of the People (ibsen)
