.... has changed her name from Susan to Rita, which although she doesn’t realise it, is part of her attempt to change her personality. She says “They walk in the hairdressers an’ half an hour later they expect to walk out a different person.” Here she is being ironic and hypocritical. This helps the audience to realise that she has a lot to learn and emphasises the ‘problems’ Rita is trying to overcome. In one of the most revealing passages in the play she says - “There was always somethin’ …tellin’ me I might have got it all wrong. But I’d just play another record or buy another dress an’ stop worryin’. …’Til … y’ have to decide wh ....

Personality Traits Of Romeo
487 Words - 2 Pages

.... “...And private in his chamber pens himself,/ Shuts up his windows, locks fair daylight out,/ And makes himself an artificial night” (Act One, scene two, lines 137 to 139).
