Question

which statement most accurately describes one effect that a change in character depiction would have on the tone of a production of the tempest?
a. shifting the setting to the old west would make the production feel more desolate.
b. changing the scenes to dance pieces would allow the characters to express more emotions.
c. staging the production as a musical would make the play feel more cheerful.
d. having children play all of the actors roles would make the production feel more innocent.

Explanation:

When children play all the roles in a production, their innocence and naivety can be projected onto the characters. This would give the production a more innocent tone as children's perspectives and behaviors are often associated with simplicity and lack of guile. Options A, B, and C are about setting (A), scene - changing (B), and genre (C) rather than character depiction.

Answer:

D. Having children play all of the actors' roles would make the production feel more innocent.
