For formal citation instructions, see my advice in Comment 1 above. As for the first person, I mentioned in class that it is best to avoid using "I" in formal essays, not because it's bad per se, but because it helps to get you in the practice of making clear, supportable statements, as opposed to relying on opinions.

Answer: Please do list citation information for all examples used in your paper. You do not need to include a separate Works Cited page, but the list should come at the end of your essay. The "Writing Advice--U of T" link above contains useful information on how to cite different kinds of texts. If you are citing a play from the Course Reading package, it's fine if you note the Author, Title, and then use the Course Reader in place of bibliographic information; e.g.: Aristophanes, The Frogs. DRAM201 Course Reader, Fall 2008 (Prof. Harrower). A student asks “do you want us to make a Works Cited List for the plays discussed in class and/or the comedy we are using?”
