Assignment: Write a dramaturgical analysis of either Trifles (attached) that explores how elements of the play could be adapted
to fit two different interpretations of the play without altering the text itself.
In this essay, select one dramatic element (e.g. casting, costuming, set design, acting direction) within Trifles and explore how different dramaturgical choices could lead to multiple interpretations of the
play without altering the text itself. For example, could you modify something within Trifles to suggest that the
women were not justified in hiding what they discover from the men? As you can see from this example, opening a play to multiple interpretations involves “reading against
the grain.” That is, it calls on us to imagine the text in ways that might go against the author’s original intention.
As you write, support your ideas with evidence from the text and, where you depart from the intended meaning
of the text, use precise dramatic terminology to explain specifically how you would change elements of the play to
support multiple interpretations.
