Twist

          

             The theme of "Twist" is that there's love in everyone, like the song "Love lies in everyone." In the beginning, you may not think some people have love in them, like Boston. In the beginning he just wants to sell Twist for a profit! He’s really mean to Della, and him and Lucious are going to be partners in crime. At the end of the story, Boston is finally nice and wants to keep Twist. And he didn’t know love could change a man like him.

         Della is a big mentor for Twist. She convinces him not to go with his evil uncle, Lucious, and tells him to believe in himself. She helped him to realize that family is more important than money. Even when they get offered a thousand dollars, Della will never ell Twist. He wants to live with Boston and Pistol and his friends in the Jewel Box. 

         The name twist represents dancing, like twist and shout. Twist’s father was the king of dancing, and when Twist has never danced before, he is great!       

             My favorite thing about the production was the dancing. It was so amazing! My favorite dancing scene was the scene in the orphanage when the boys were telling Twist about meat. The dancing was amazing, especially because it was done by kids. There were kids doing back-flips, cartwheels, leaps and so much more. I don’t know what I would change about this production, it was so good! If I had to change something, I would have a little more about why Twist is named Twist, because that was a little confusing.
