Reaction Paper:
Unlike
Written and directed by Dudz Teraa,


Facebook is the most popular social networking of all time and it's
quite informative how the short play entitled Unlike was able to exhibit all the
aspects concerning it especially its advantages and disadvantages to every
users.

First advantage would be people can share our feelings on what's
happening around in our daily life through Facebook. We can also get
feedback from our friends about their reaction toward your feelings. It is the best
medium to share your feelings and thoughts with others. And it's funny how the
play was able to portray different ways and kinds of personalities of people in
expressing their thoughts especially the ridiculous use of the "Hashtags". On the
other hand, this freedom to express has lots of disadvantages as well. It can ruin
relationships whether in a family, school and especially on couples as what was
highlighted on the show.

Another point that was that they have portrayed is that Facebook is
one of the best medium for communication. With the help of it everyone can

connect to different people from anywhere in the world because almost every
people around the world use Facebook . All important happening whether in
the field of politics, showbiz, health awareness, poverty and a lot more are being
disseminate. The show has stressed how one could expressed his/her opinion
regarding politics, whether who you are or in what social status you belong.
One can use Facebook to connect all his/her close friends together. It's features
like group chatting, notification, file sharing has been widely used by everyone.
Unfortunately, these features are somehow misused by some. The play has
shown how others could use Facebook for pornography. It surprised me that all
those things actually exsist and Facebook's security setting are actually not
effective enough to remove them all.

Overall, the show has been informative enough to show almost all
the advantages and disadvantages of facebook in a different and definitely
amusing way. Some scenes are funny and humorous, others are dramatic. All in
all, I thought the play was a great success. It was the first time I attended a
physical theatre play and it definitely exceeded my expectations. I am not a big
fan of theatre in general; however, after attending Unlike I have definitely
become a fan. I just love the way their bodies tell it all. I would definitely
recommend anyone to watch it. It was amazingly entertaining and makes a
person think about how he/she uses Facebook.
