initial responses to 'The price"



So now that we have read this play, what is it actually about? You said this:


  • people being unable to meet financial demands
  • Objectification of children
  • the importance of material things
  • Do we now see children as a burden on our income?
  • Everything has a price
  • Are we obsessed with money?
  • Money rules our world
  • Why is the child cheaper than the box of tea?
  • How much are we willing to pay for things?
  • How have we got to this point now?
  • The play addresses a strange question but in a very familiar setting-a supermarket
  • Fair trade-do we care about being fair or do we just want the cheapest product for the cheapest price?
  • Does money always reflect value?
  • Everywhere has crisis
