How does the idea of non-conformity play a part in this drama?

This play was all about non-conformity. It makes perfect sense though. I didn't see it as that dramatic. It was more open, I suppose. The was non-conformity takes place throughout the play made it very interesting to read.
This play is not like any other play that i have read which makes it a very interesting thing to read. If the play was like other plays then it would not be as unique as it is. Not many plays have teachers attempting to teach outside of a classroom. The non-conformity makes the play seem more dramatic because of its uniqueness.
non-comformity plays an important role in this play. i think the whole play is based around non-comformity. Throughout the play, the main character does a lot of things out of the norm, such as when he didnt take any deals to get out of jail. He wanted to stand his case while others would've done anything to get out of jail. Since he was educated, he also taught in an no-conform way. - Chris Lee
It wasnt like any other play and thats what made it non-conformity. Thats probably the best part of this play, that its different from any other one that I've read before. I don't know if I'd say its completely dramatic but it did have its moments I think.
The whole entire drama is based on non-conformity. Thoreau ended up in jail because he would not conform and pay his taxes. Then he explains past examples of his non-conformist ways, like Huckleberrying, and living in the forest. The non-conformity of the play helps understand Thoreau and his decisions in life.
Non-conformity was the reason why the play was written in the first place. If Thoreau wasn't non-conformity in not paying his taxes he would've never even went to jail. The "big picture" of this play is that non-conformity exists whether you like it or not. It is a method of learning just like Buddhism and Hinduism is another form of religion. As much as people try to suppress people who don't fit their standards of normality, the uniqueness of non-conformity can teach you more than you think if you give it a chance to teach you something.
I may sound like a broken record, but... It is very apparent that this entire play's main idea is non-conformity. That is the way Thoreau lived his life. He never wanted to be like anybody else, and this play reflects both his personality and beliefs. If he was told to do something that he simply seemed unfit or contraditcting everything he believed in, then he just wouldn't do it. There are still many people in the world today who are just like that. Those people have most likely been influenced by authors like Thoreau. See: Christopher McCandless :)
Non-conformity is the entirety of this play. Drama prodominates in this play because the play is all about non-conformity. His ways are what made this play dramatic because his ways are different than anyone else which makes him in a way, the freak of society.
Non-conformity was the basis of this play. It was the entire message of the play, I think. As you progress from start to finish you see the message of non-conformity through the perspective of Thoreau and it really makes you understand that you shouldn't conform to the norm. You should just be what you want to be; be yourself.
Devin Oulds, The idea of non-conformity in the play is what made it so interesting. This play was different from all the previous plays ive read. It was interesting to see the way non-conformity helped dramatize the play. Which i think is very unique.

the play is all about non-conformity.
seriously, it doesn't play a role, it exemplifies it.
plain and simple.
throreau teaches and learns in different ways that,
at that time, were far from the straight and narrow.
