Above you will see design Boards of characters for an animation of Four Play for Dancers By W.B Yeats. "Four Plays for Dancers" is a collection of plays by the Irish poet and playwright W.B. Yeats, first published in 1921. The plays are unique in that they were specifically written to be performed by dancers, rather than actors. The collection includes "At the Hawk's Well," "The Only Jealousy of Emer," "The Dreaming of the Bones," and "Calvary." Each play features elements of Irish folklore and mythology, as well as Yeats' characteristic poetic language. The plays are notable for their exploration of themes such as death, love, and transformation, and their use of dance as a central element of the storytelling. "Four Plays for Dancers" is considered a significant work in Yeats' literary canon and has been influential in the development of dance as a theatrical form.
