Hooligans Take Turin

Don Juan: The Womanizer


As I went to see the see the school play, I wouldn't have thought that it would be as comical as it was. After all Don Juan is a play by Molière from the seventeenth century. Nevertheless, I'm going to give you a “deep” analysis of my interpretation of the play.

Don Juan, played by Matt Alvarez, was a very intriguing character. As the play unraveled we were able to see different facets of him. One of the main things to describe him, was that he was womanizer. One minute he was with one woman, ten seconds later they were already engaged, and thirty seconds later he was hitting on another. This was really effective for him, well why wouldn’t it be? He was handsome, charming, and well attracts women the most, he was wealthy. We can’t leave out that he was married, or wasn’t and had clingy ex-wife (didn’t quite understand that relationship status), the fact is that he did well when it came to women. After hearing Don Juan’s little adventures with women, let’s now go to his adventures with his sidekick. As he was flirting with all the women, his sidekick was covering up all his dirty work, he even worked as wingman, because after all what is a womanizer without his wing man. Ok, getting back in track. His sidekick (forgot his name…oops) was always helping him no matter what situation he was in, he was willing to pay for him. I don’t know if he did this as a job, or he just really idolized him, but Don Juan was mean because he took advantage of him.
After watching all the play, one could say that Don Juan wasn’t the best person ever, and he didn’t have the best values either. Well that’s why at the end of the play they ended up sending him to hell, because of all the sins he committed. Well Don Juan at least you can tell the other sin committers that you lived a good life!

Btw: My favorite part was for sure when Manuel was acting as a lifeguard. EPIC, EXTRAORDINARY, PRICELESS.
