I watched the play Grease several times and I believe the actors that were picked to play these characters did a good job playing different roles in the play. An example being the actor that played Rizzo (Stockyard Channing) I could never see her playing Sandy (Olivia Newton-John). Sandy was a nice quiet girl and I feel with the way Stockyard Channing looked it wouldn’t have been the right look. I feel like one of the best actors in the play would be John Travolta (Danny).

The teen love story takes places in America during the 1950s and is full of catchy songs, fun choreography, a simple plot and patriarchal values. These components are quite common in the musical genre, with one-dimensional characters and the heavy use of gender stereotypes.

The Outsiders Literary Analysis

Theme-Based Literary Analysis Essay You should never use stereotypes on people you barely know. You could see someone driving down the street in a really nice convertable and think “wow they must be a rich person!” but maybe not. Maybe they are just an average teenager who got a second job and saved their money to buy the car they have wanted for a long time. They worked for it, they weren’t just given the money. Stereotyping someone is like a lie from their appearances. In “The Outsiders” Ponyboy…
