Well, so much for keeping up with posting... Here we are months later, and I'm just now getting around to posting the results of THREE (count 'em) THREE shows on here.
Show # 1: The Sound of Music
So we performed the show, after all the hassle of not having blocked, and not learning songs. We were absolutely FANTASTIC!! The kids in the show were amazing, and everyone worked so hard to bring that show to a successful conclusion. There wasn't much that I wasn't happy about with that show, so there's not much of anything to report with it.... Needless to say, it was absolutely fantastic.
Show # 2: In the Theatre III/IV class, we perform a senior play. It is like the last hoorah for the theatre seniors who have been in theatre for at least two years. We auditioned for the play, The Servant of Two Masters, and I was cast in the role of Signor Pantalone dei Bisognosi. Yes, that's right, an Italian reniassance play by Carlo Goldoni, and I got the part of, you guessed it, the OLD MAN. XD
It was still really fun. It was a comedia del arte play, which is basically the equivilant of a melodrama in those times. It is supposed to be really over the top and funny, and it was. We all had a wonderful time performing in our last main stage play as seniors on that stage. I was extremely proud of the man who was cast as Truffeldino, because up until this year, he had never been in a main stage play ON STAGE before, he was always behind the scenes. He did an amazing job, as did the rest of the cast. Sen10rs rule!!
Show # 3: The final show has just recently ended. It was The Bremen Town Musicians. It was adapted from the story by The Brothers Grimm by our theatre teacher, and we performed it as a children's play. I was cast as... wait for it... THE BITTER OLD HUNTER!!! Yeah... Type casting is a wonderful thing, innit? ;D
Anyway, we had a lot of fun with this show, but it hit me hard that itw as my last show on that high school stage. I will miss this theatre department tremendously, and I will be back to see shows guaranteed 100%. After all, I'm only going to be a half hour away.
But anway, that's the way my life goes as of lately. I'll keep updated how things are going with college searches, and on my trip to europe this summer.
For now, Auf wiedhersehen!
P.S. Another random movie quote...:
