I think they wanted to attract more people to attend greek plays because they wanted to show the connection between modern day problems and problems back then. They added police officers in the production of the play probably because they wanted them to come together and grow together. I say this because in these days with police brutality, people have lost respect and gained fear against the police. So I think they wanted them to fight the problem together and not against each other because not everyone is bad. Yes it has totally changed my perspective on the play because at first I didn’t even think about it being the same as today’s society with all the discrimination against women and the wrongful laws. Now that I have watched the play I can no see the connection and understand it better that when I initially read it.

Office Hours: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11:30 AM – 1 PM. I’ll be available through Zoom and will send an invitation via email that you should keep all semester. Try to join my meeting at the start of the hour, not at the end—since I may be talking to other students or have another appointment after the hour is up. If those times don’t work with your schedule, we can schedule a different time. This means you’ll have to schedule an appointment in advance via email. I suggest you have multiple times in mind, since your schedule may not mesh with mine!
