The document discusses the poll tax riots in London in March 1990. Over 200,000 people demonstrated against the poll tax, a new tax that was seen as unfairly targeting the working class. Approximately 3,000 protesters turned violent, shouting at police and injuring 45 officers as well as 20 police horses. The riots marked a turning point that led to the end of the poll tax and weakened the prime minister politically.

Theatre Review
Similar to film and music reviews which analyze and critique the whole work, a review of a play or musical should also critique the production as a whole, in addition to its variety of elements. The purpose of a review is to provide a potential audience with an unbiased opinion of the production, supported by facts.
This last written assignment requires you to attend one UT Department of Theatre and Film production this semester – The name of the play: THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST. This assignment is to analyze and critique the production, using theatrical terminology, not merely “liking or disliking” the play (do not turn in a rewritten version of the plot summary)
Like any written essay, a theatre review should contain an introduction, body and conclusion. Elements that could be discussed in this review (but are not limited by) include:
· introductory material: name of the play or production, playwright, performance location, date: ( the Importance of being earnest, Oscar Wilde, the university of Toledo, Dec 3 ,2016)
· the production’s themes and/or playwright’s voice (what he/she was trying to say)
· expected audience response
· visual elements (set design, costumes, lighting, sound and/or music) and how they support (or don’t support) the production
· artists’ performances (actors and their roles, director, designers), including their honesty/believability
· successful moments in the play vs. unclear ones
conclusion or overall impression of the production
This Theater review should be based on the live theatrical performance seen here at UT, not a film version or other school's production. In general, your assignment should be typed and proofread, at least 3-4 pages in length. Think creativity, originality (such as images, links, etc.) -- reviews are no longer just printed in newspapers or magazines, reviews are also found on television, radio and the internet. Be careful of spelling, grammar, capitalization, punctuation, and MLA guidelines

2. The poll tax was the central policy of the Conservative Party’s
winning 1987 general election manifesto, but it was met by fierce
resistance. The working class felt they were under attack.
The public opposition reached its climax in a riot that turned
London’s Trafalgar Square into a pandemonium. On 31 March, 1990,
200,000 showed up for a demonstration while approximately 3,000
of them turned violent; in a shocking echo of the Fall of the Berlin
Wall mere four months before, they shouted “Stasi” at the police;
340 were arrested. Of 113 people injured, 45 were police; 20 police
horses were also injured. Four tube stations were shut; central
London was essentially cordoned off. Damages were estimated at
£400,000. The riot was a fatal blow for not only the poll tax but also
the prime minister.

in Trafalgar Square (“The Mob’s brief Rule”, 7
April) there is a large photograph labelled “A

you might like to know the true story behind the
picture….
