ACTIVITY<br />
(pre-show)<br />
This is the <strong>Shaw</strong> <strong>Festival</strong>’s image to promote the musical <strong>Ragtime</strong>. Why might the artist, Emily Cooper, choose<br />
these specific images to represent <strong>Ragtime</strong>?<br />
ASK students to give their response to the image as a whole. Then look at specifics. ASK: What do you see?<br />
What is the significance of fireworks? Wheel? American flag? Who are the people represented?<br />
ACTIVITY: Using images from magazines or internet, students select 3—5 images and create a COLLAGE that<br />
expresses who they are; their personality.<br />
