Write an essay that explores how and why key elements such as character or symbols from the drama of your choice (“Simply María, or The American Dream” by Josefina López). Then relate it to the theme The American Dream/Nightmare using at least one scholarly source.

Review what you learned from the theme The American Dream/Nightmare. Some important contexts you may to consider are:

The dialogue

The setting

• The plot
• The cultural context
• The time period in which the drama was written (vs. the one in which it is set, if applicable 
• Review the pages Sample Play Analysis: Andre’s Mother and the Starting Your Drama Analysis Essay as guidelines for how to approach your analysis.
• Your essay should incorporate details and quotes from the play (using parenthetical documentation with the playwright’s name), integrate them logically and grammatically, and you should use your own words to elaborate on the function and meaning of the details and quotes you use as evidence.
• Apply what you learned from (LO 2) Unit 4.2 Discussion – Applying a Lens to Your Drama Analysis by incorporating at least one quote or paraphrase from one of the Research Resources for Your Drama Analysis Essay. Be sure to include an in-text parenthetical citation as well as a bibliographic citation in MLA format for your Works Cited page.
