In this isabelino theater of the era under rule of queen Elizabeth as of 1558 - 1603, the jacobeo theater, under rule of theater of king James I as of 1603-1625, and of Caroline, under rule of king Charles I as of the 1625 until the shutdown in 1642, was operational. The theaters of the Renaissance are used sometimes referring to the isabelino theater due to the reforms removed to collation by the theater during that period. The great dramatists as William Shakespeare and Christopher Marlowe were a part of this were.

The theaters of the Renaissance were inspired by the medieval theaters. Their religious traditions, Biblical game of histories, the morality and mystery have the essence of the comedy and the tragedy of the Greek theater. The agents of the theater of the noble families were actually before the reign of Elizabeth I, so in the isabelino theater there were professional executants who acted in stage. Agents of aspiration they replaced the young them more ahead than more in the class of the morality and the mystery of games were implied. In order to obtain them behind, an act was announced in 1572 to close all the theaters that lacked formal sponsorship. The noble professionals became in act and prospered during that was. But the poor executants abrieron new theaters in the suburbs. They secured the permission saying that they tried for the games that were realized in front of the queen. But these theaters were the real supplier of the rent for the artists something that the noble theaters.

The games that were played at the outset were equal in the real theaters and the theaters public. But the real theaters later developed a taste for the games written in the high class and the real family. The theaters public were open to the new ideas and histories turned around many subjects. But during it was of the theater of Caroline the games had argument of the years of yester; nothing new was created at that time. The games were written in history for example the lives of kings like Henry V, Richard III, Edward I and the tragic games of Edward III. as the Jew of Malta and the Dr. Faustus were very famous with the crowd.

It was a tendency not to repeat history for two continuous demonstrations. In the very rare occasion a game was carried out twice in one week. Only the exception was game of the S.A. of Thomas Middleton' in the chess that was realized nine times continuously. This was a challenge for the agents always kept who them in their toes. The games written by the writers who were sold once to the company continued being the characteristic of the company. They could not even interfere with the frame, the revisions or publications. The women were not a part of the theater at that time. Games could not write and nor they could not act. The feminine character was played by the adolescent boys who used the feminine clothes and the maquillaje.

The theaters were done outside the wood and of plaster with the roofs covered with straw. Then these structures were a more prone fire catching were replaced more ahead by a structure of the brick with the tiled roofs. The theaters were famous building three with the stage of the open air in center. The stage was surrounded from three sides by the adjustment that was becoming in three histories; she was elliptical or square. There were the doors in the later part of the stage that were used by the executants. The third level behind the stage was used like balcony to build reciprocally with the hearing. Some of the famous theaters that had such structures were theater of the curtain, The Globe, the fortune, the Rose, the swan and the red theaters of the relatively so large bulletin after small with obtaining begun popular stage of interior for the reason for the isolation. It began with the theater of Blackfriars. Other theaters that followed the trajectory were Whitefriars, cockpit and theater of the court of Salisbury.

The movement of the puritano one was the cause of the confinement of theaters in 1642. According to the puritanos the theaters carried out the indecent matter like the men who got dressed above for like female and the political thoughts of opposition also waked up. Most of the theaters were located in the places where the brothels dwelled. So at the beginning of the English civil war all the theaters were closed.

Origin of the arts of the theater

The early man like means for the interaction, to express its internal and average thoughts to the recording events, arts shortages. The old caves; the monuments and the writings preserved in the museums attest to that fact. Whereas we were developed, it made art so. The art has reached such height that now can be classified in the several categories that more future to have subcategories. The diverse regions and civilizations have diverse forms, that have a deep influence of the culture.

They know therefore the human executants who represent these secondary classes of interpretative arts like agents, dances, musicians, magician, singers, juglares, comedians and acrobats.

The theater of the word also originated of the Greek word “Theatron” that means the “place to consider”. The games were carried out in the special events that had religious importance, so the turned main idea around old Roman Gods with the paper of masculine Gods that was decreed with the musculatura, the elegance and the balance where like feminine Gods being decreed with beauty, tolerance and correct anatomical magnitude. The song also was used as average for the promulgation except delivery of the dialog. Along with the suits the masks were also a part I brought of agentes'. The stage was determined to a realistic context of the landscape.

During Average Ages the arguments of the games were based mainly on Biblical incidences with an influence of the Byzantine and gothic art. The art of the east was influenced mainly by the western medieval art. Much concentration was not paid to the realistic illustration. The suits were also superficial to model, that means that the basic color of the suit was accentuated on which heightening it playing with the light.

A titiritero used the figures guinea fowl done outside the red deers or of the goat skin, generally, that is moved by spiral threads and the sequence tied them. The dances have agents expressing of a situation with the face expression in sinc. with a singer whom the story along with music narrates to use the instruments such as veena and table.

The agents take a nomadic life generally, traveling from a village to another one with their baggage. They at night stopped in temples and the adjustment his stage for the operation the following day. The villagers collect the following day to watch this group of execution of the agents of the man 15-20. The epics of Hindu mythology are decreed to use colorful maquillaje and suits. Since a part of this package are no females, the masculine suit that uses the feminine suit, also decrees feminine papers. Which is hoped that to the executants they are realized sometimes through day and through the night, for must require portions of vigor to precede of the game with the night. The mythological figures meet like “Kimpurushas”, agent of known lead as they know “Kattu-veshas” and to the bandits supposed like “Kiratas”. One does not hope that to the hearings they pay to any thing this hospitality; the agents are money provided with the bottoms of the temple for a life.

The artists of Yakshagana were also those that are for presenting/displaying to people to puppetry. The figures guinea fowl done of the leather were made to move with the small sticks and the sequences. The stage was done with a white translucent cloth in which the images of the dance of marionettes were projected with the aid of the ignited oil lamps.

This inspired to king Louis XIV and it was the one that is behind prospering of the opera in France. The father of the French opera was Jean-Baptiste Lully; it presented/displayed “Cadmus and Hermione” in the court of the king. After considering that operation, the interest of the king increased still more. This Lully encouraging to do “In Musique de Tragedie”, also known like musique in the tragedies, along with Felipe Quinault. It was the tragic history of Cornelio and Racine and were a musical comedy of the dance with the choral writing.

This pair also was known to alter the complex and detailed baroque diagram. They did five-act structure instead of another one. Before the praises of the operation were sung for king Louis XIV this was inspired of Italy that sung allegorical prolog instead of another one. Then it began with an Aryan who were followed by recitative and a short Aryan who elaboradamente was modeled that had the French taste present and often appreciated. Then it finished with divertissement. It was the most important factor as it implied portions of song, dance, and portions of hospitality that was the main attraction for the hearing. To the half-full ones of of century XVIII “Comique opera” another sort of the opera took the supposition of the people in whom the dialogs and the music of the Aryans were used. Enormous attacks were delivered to make the operation a success and to especially gain the heart of the king. The stage was determined with the portions of details and the special effects known like machinery in which Olivet did the choreography and the Quinault wrote the phrases.

Lully had acquired the whole market befriending to the king. It was only after his death that the other composers secured an occasion to demonstrate their talents. Residue Charpentier was a such composer of the opera that wrote and presented/displayed its first “mMusique of in of Tragedie”, “Medee” in 1693. Then it had the ventilators of alguÌ  n Lully disappointed of the connection this Italian and therefore he received a mixed reaction. Andre Campra and Marin Marais also made their attempts in Musique de Tragedie. Campra more ahead created a new type of opera known like ballet of the opera. It had more dance and musical element in him. Much comedy also was including with a slight argument. This was different than they demonstrated used Lully to compose and it to be a good change for the hearing with him is on answer whelming. This gave the idea to imply comedy in the operation totally. This was done by Mouret that used east style in its love affairs of Ragonde of Them of the work.

Another composer, Jean-Felipe Rameau made important parts same of the history of the French opera after Lully. Its first work Hipólito and Aricie was in the age of fifty. He used much experimentation that created to stir in the hearing. Although Campra would appreciate the ventilators of Lully most of were given an electrical shock. This created a clear line of separation between the hearings. This Rameau made to follow the rules existing. But this time it was opposed by the Italian counterparts called that it old-fashioned. This one was when Rameau created a new sort of the opera known like Comique opera. Opera de Theater Of I la' worked in this idea and got to be very famous in century XVIII. Even in twentieth century the composers such as Reynaldo Hahn and Andre Messager wrote many works in the Comique opera.

How to Save Money on Gifts

Giving gifts does not have to be spendthrift. As the old adage goes, “It is the thought that counts”. This goes to show that people can start cutting back on gifts that would cost them hundreds of dollars. It is best to opt for things that may not be that expensive but would definitely bring joy and amusement to the one who will receive the gift. So, if you want to give gifts but with a tight budget, worry no more because there are many ways to cut back on the prices but still be able to give gifts that will be deeply appreciated.

Start a Gift Closet
If you have not done this before, try to do it now. Shop for gifts the whole year-round. This would mean less hassle and less expense, a definite money-saver. The point here is that if you do not plan in advance, you will end up spending more. You could try buying gifts at bazaars, special sales, and out-of-town trips, which you can deposit in your gift closet. In this way, you can buy the items at a much lower price than it would be sold for during the holidays. However, to make sure that you do not give the same gift twice, you should make an inventory of all your gifts. This will also allow you to keep tabs on what you have in your stock. Alternatively, apart from stockpiling gifts, collect wrapping paper, ribbons, and other accents as well. A gift is better appreciated when it is beautifully wrapped.

Be Creative
Nothing could be more amusing than a gift that was specially made by the person who gave the gift. Personalizing you gifts is far better than commercially made items. In this way, you do not only create a smile to the one who will receive the gift but would also cut back a large amount from your expenses.

Organizing Tip
One of the best ways of saving money on gifts is to be organized with the process. That is, before going to the store to shop for the gifts, always bring with you a shopping list. It should be stated there the names of the person to whom you will give the gift and the budget for each person.
The bottom line is that gifts should not be expensive. What matters most is that you have thought of the person on that very special day and that’s enough to make them feel they are special to you.
