The correct answer is parody.

Parody happens when authors try to imitate another piece of literature, or the entire genre, or another author, but do so in a humorous way, or sometimes, even a mocking one.

In literature, we can find a famous example of parody in Alexander Pope's narrative poem 'The R.ape of the Lock,' which is written in order to parody the genre of epic, heroic poems, and their seemingly grand themes.

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

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.

Parties are often preceded by fun questions, like what to give? Who to bring (if you have a plus one, that is)? When to arrive? And, crucially, what to wear? Most of us don’t just happen to have a floor-length silk gown or a tailcoat hanging around in our closet, waiting for the day our Met Gala invite finally arrives. But would that even be the right kind of thing to wear to such an event? We’ve got answers, and options, for every possible occasion on your social calendar.
