Peer Gynt

A detailed Summary of Peer Gynt

I have just recently attended a play called "Peer Gynt" on the night of March 2, 2001. In seeing and writing this paper I was asked to evaluate one of the major characters in the production. So for my evaluation I have picked the character of Peer Gynt. In this paper I will evaluate many different items about the character and his contribution to the overall glimpse of the play I can portray to you.

To describe to the overall spectacle of the play I will first describe to you how my choice of Peer Gynt related to the plot. Basically Peer is the main character of the play so the plot wouldn't be there if it was not for him, but looking more closely we can see how Peers behavior and miseduacation has thrown him in a bad direction. So basically his behavior threw the whole play gave a great amount of ideal to the plot. Relating to the other characters on stage deals greatly the same way. As Peer keeps screwing up the other characters in the play suffer as much or even more pain than him. Such an example is when he abducts Ingrid because he is in love with her and does not want her to marry another man. Thus he takes her to the mountains and abandons her and she dies from his mist

Now moving on I want to tell what I believe the artist tried to communicate to the audience. Looking at just the role of Peer Gynt alone I believe it is a very emotional but a cold role. What I mean is Peer seemed to be emotional at sometimes such as his mother dying, why'll other times he seemed very abrupt and cruel to people. So I believe threw viewing the role and the actor playing it that the artist tried very much to show great emotion at times but suddenly make very abrupt changes to being cold and cruel.

Looking at the artist I believe he did not do a very good job. I know I am not very qualified for these kinds of criticism but hear me out. I keep mentioning emotion. It was hard to me to see great emotion from the artist myself. I think the way he interpreted Peer Gynt and delivered a few lines was very dull to the emotion needed. I believe we could have used more from the actor. Especially in the scene when his mother passed away. Now looking to his mirror of the whole cast I think he did a good job. This role was probably a challenging one. I mean the character had relationships with many different characters at different times. So he had to deal with a lot of stag
