Answer:

The options are incomplete. Next came the Tin Pan Bangers. Some had dishpans, some had frying pans, some had potato peeling pans. All the pans were tin with tight tin bottoms. And the Tin Pan Bangers banged with knives and forks and iron and wooden bangers on the bottoms of the tin pans is the correct option.

Explanation:

Carl Sandburg was an American poet, writer, and historian. The Wedding Procession of the Rag Doll and the Broom Handle and Who Was in It is a short story written by him and appeared in The Rootabaga Stories. It is the story of the wedding of the characters mentioned and how the ceremony was preceded by a procession.

Repetition is a rhetorical device that happens when the same sound or word is repeated in a phrase. There are several types, and alliteration is one of them; it consists in repeating the first consonant sound of a word, putting several sounds like this in one phrase or sentence. In the example, we can see the repetition of the "b" and "p" sound as in "potato peeling pans" or "bangers on the bottoms"; as an example of repetition, the word "pans" appears several times.

Please help!! Identify each characteristic as common to either modern theater or Elizabethan theater.
Drupady [299]

In Elizabethan theater, the lighting was natural, adding only candles or torches, as most of the plays were performed during the day or afternoon. In modern theater, lighting is artificial and carefully planned to establish mood, control the audience´s focus of attention and enhance the meaning of the play.

While In Elizabethan theater plays were performed in courtyards, Inn-yards, playhouses, and amphitheaters where actors had to rely on the power of their voices to reach the audience, in modern theater microphones can be used to help the audience hear the actors during a play.

While In Elizabethan theater crowds could cheer and boo actors during the performance, as the theater was designed for the actor to speak with and directly to the audience, in the modern theater the crowd maintains silence during the performance and the actors do not speak nor acknowledge the audience.

In modern theatre, the most expensive seats are in front of the stage, in opposition to Elizabethan theatre where the cheap seats were in the front and the expensive seats were above and behind the players.
