Recommended: Important of theatre

I had done two shows before, in 3rd and 4th grade, but they were never as good or as professional as GREAT Theatre’s shows. I hadn’t really heard of GREAT Theatre before my friend Brianna asked me to audition for The Hobbit with her in 5th grade. It was exciting to audition for my first big show, and it made me remember how much fun I had had the last two years’ plays. When the cast list was posted, I carefully scanned the list looking for my name, which I didn’t find. I was devastated when I didn't get in so I tried again, and again, and again. I just could not get into a show, and that made me even more determined to get into the next one: Charlotte’s Web. When I auditioned for this show, I tried my best to be the best; I spoke with volume,

    On March 31, I had the pleasure of seeing Hello Dolly at Mandeville High School. As a talented theater student at the school, I take the shows that are put on very seriously.

I want to make sure that my school represents theater in the best way possible. With this production put on, I am proud to say that I am a theater student at Mandeville High.

    I was practicing the routine for my opening act, for the Broadway musical "The Sound of music." I am an actress playing the lead role of the main character Maria. My director Jane Marshall says," Barbara, you only have twenty minutes until your performance." My only chance to start a satisfying reputation for myself and please the audience. As I listened to those words come out of my directors mouth, that's when it dawned on me. I will only have one chance to do it right. I wouldn't want to cause any disarrays.

  • Personal Narrative: A Career As A Long-Term Career Option

    260 Words  | 1 Pages

    This career option as an assessment employer for the child protective services could possibly be a long-term career option. Although, I do not believe I would want this as my long-term career goal. Choosing to work directly out of college would also allow myself to gain experience within the field which would improve the possibility of getting a better job or getting into graduate school. If I was hired and I did accept the position within five years my goal would be to continue working while attending school to further mu education. I would continue to work to gain more experience as well as helping me get through school by paying off my tuition. I would not leave this job until I graduate and had another job lined up.

  • Personal Narrative: My Experience As A Writer

    How does an artist create a painting? He or she cannot simply look at a canvas and a picture appear. The artist must be equipped with proper tools to create a masterpiece: paint and brushes. The same can be said about writers. Writers are not born with the knowledge of writing an attractive paper. They must be given tools of writing and shown how to utilize them. Artists and writers without proper tools will be nothing more than blank canvases and empty pages. I used to be a blank canvas, but a teacher gave me the tools I needed, and now I am a polished portrait.

  • Personal Narrative: What Is Play

    On March 24, 2016 I attended an American Hockey League (AHL) game at the Quicken Loans Arena between the Lake Erie Monsters and the Rockford IceHogs. To get to the game, I had to meet my good friends parents for the first time because we were taking their car up to Cleveland. Ironically, this process felt almost ritualistic, because even though my friend was a female and not a romantic interest, I still conducted my usual nervous preparation for meeting her parents. Aside from this encounter, the game really brought to life the discussion our class had regarding “what is play,” these last few weeks. To start, the game commenced after the players, coaches and trainers took the ice for the singing of the National Anthem. In regards to the frame

  • Personal Narrative: 9th Grade Drama Class

    930 Words  | 2 Pages

    I first met “T” when I was placed into the same group as him in ninth grade drama class. I believe the teacher was trying to allow for diverse groups, leading to diverse opinions. My school was majority white, farm children, and T was no exception. Our group contained 5 people, including myself and T, and we had to create a script about teenage pregnancy. I always attempt to give everyone I meet a fair first-impression, but T decided to use this first meeting to complain about the groups and the content of the class. The rest of us worked diligently and co-operatively while T continued to either be on him phone or out for a “smoke-break”. T was an obvious sharp contrast next to the rest of the group.

  • Personal Narrative: I Participate In The Musical

    Every summer I participate in the Musical through our local Parks and Recreation program, and last year the musical was Beauty and the Beast. At first I was apprehensive because this was a musical with few female roles, and our theater department had a plethora of talented female actors. Regardless, I was excited to perform with my friends because my opportunities to perform before I went to college were shrinking. The audition was relaxed, and I even got a callback the next day. The only problem was I had to fly out to Nashville the same day, so I finished my callback and rushed myself to the Kansas City Airport. The cast list was scheduled to come out that evening, and I was receiving anxious texts from my fellow actors. As the plane was

As I left my audition, I told my parents, “I didn’t do well trying out for the lead. I couldn’t figure out what kind of personality to use because the character is so dynamic and has no distinct traits.” Yet again, my mom cheered me up, telling me how much she loved me and how it would not be the end of the world if I did not get a part.

  • Personal Narrative: My Art Career

    Many artists say that they were born to do art, that it was always in their blood and that they cannot remember a time that art was not a part of their lives. For me, this was exactly the opposite. I was always trying to do my best in science and mathematics and art was not even on my radar until I was a freshman in high school where I met my first inspiration for art, Zack Smithey. I was lucky enough to have Mr. Smithey as a guide for the start of my art career all four years in high school and he really pushed me to develop my portrait work. He helped me develop the foundation of my artwork, but at that point I was merely duplicating what I was seen and really had not developed an aesthetic of my own. For me, art was a challenge for me to
