Answer 1

Answer: A. The Balinese production portrays Ariel as an animal-like creature, while the Utah Valley University production has Ariel played by two dancers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Tempest is a play written by Shakespeare about a former Duke named Prospero and his daughter, Miranda who live on an island with Ariel and Caliban.

Ariel and Caliban have been depicted differently in various plays by the Balinese Production and the Utah Valley University Production.

In the Balinese production, Ariel is described as a small animal like creature with a long tail that is capable of flight.

In the Utah Valley Production however, Ariel is portrayed by two dancers whose bodies are painted and who have feathered leggings on.
