It was first performed in 1944 in France--when France was occupied by Nazi Germany. As you read, consider the possible political implications of the play as you explore the rising voice of the individual against the state.

Give your first, second, and their choices of scenes. Hand this in by noon today so that I can assign scenes immediately and you can get started. I will assign scenes in the order I receive proposals so there's an advantage in deciding efficiently. Hand in through the assignment in Jupiter (anyone in the group may hand in for all).
