Advantages great short play, easy to understand
Disadvantages the somerset language can be hard to read at time but persist and you will understand it
after studying this play for the past few months as a drama student i would think i know a lot about it.
blue remembered hills is a very stylised piece of theatre. it connotes the story of 7 children all living in the Somerset area with their mums during the war.
we see how the lives of these children are corrupted by war and the violence going on around them.
although there is talk of the adults and the famous Wallace Wilson we only ever see these 7 characters and of course that little squirrel.
i found this to be a very hard hitting play which once you have read it i am sure you will to.
it is advisable to read the authors notes before you read the play as the entire play will make more sense to you
ENJOY

I am sorry for the low rate but if you have been studying this play for several months surely you would have more to say about it? It would also help if you proof read your work before uploading to make it easier to read.
