Characterization
Although there were many characters to make up this comedy one act, the characters that really made this one act were Snowee White and Amy.
Snowee White: Snowee White is a not a very successful singer who is facing the downfall of his career and becoming poor. He is faced with a dilemma when his deceased uncle gives him a large sum of money, but with there is a catch. He must marry one of the seven women his uncle has selected for him. This obviously would not be a big problem if he already was planning on marrying his girlfriend Amy.
Amy: Amy has been dating Snowee White for quite some time and is planning on marrying him soon, once they get enough money of course... When Snowee is faced with this dilemma, she immediately leaves Snowee knowing how much he needs the money and will choose that over her.
There are seven women that Snowee ends up choosing from and as each woman comes in to meet Snowee, the progression of his dislike is felt throughout the one act. As each woman meets Snowee he realizes that the money isn't for him and neither are the women. They want to change him into someone he's not and he knows deep down that Amy never wanted that for him and loved him for who he is. Overall the characters really made this one act. The plot was good, but without the characters and their personalities the plot would have never worked. In the end the characters made the message and gave the message and moral of the whole story. When you think you will be happier with something because you will be gaining money or fame and end up leaving someone or something for it, in the end you will only be disappointed and saddened. Juliet Garver (writer) did a good job at setting up a plot and characters that portrayed the ending message.
