Thespians Unite

[softball chick]

So I've been noticing that there are a lot of theatre kids on here so why not have a place for us to talk theatre? Favorite shows we've seen or performed/worked on, tech week memories, or anything else related to theatre since some of us (like me) are obsessed with it.

 

[PeterPanPatrick]

A theater thread?!?!?!!?

*faints from awesomeness

 

[softball chick]

Yeah. I know we already have the "high school musicals" thread but I thought we should have one that go farther than just what shows we are doing right now.

 

[PeterPanPatrick]

yeah. You know i need to do another theater project. It's been a little while.

 

[CowboyErin]

I'm a theatre kid
I just finished A Midsummer Night's Dream for my high school drama club, and I have to say, that is my favorite show that I've been in

 

[PeterPanPatrick]

Luckies. The ONLY thing I've done all year is my school's award school show and trust me. I put some effrot in that sucker.

Yeah, Shakespeare is really hard at first, but it gets a lot easier after a while.

Helllooo there.

I've been scoping out Theatre Design schools in southern California... so far:
USC
UCLA
Pepperdine
Chapman
CalArts

all of which I will have toured by the end of this summer...

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

Oh hey.. we're doing A Midsummer's Night Dream in the fall.. I have to go to a set design meeting on Wednesday, but we're going to talk about how it's going to be set in the 60's.

Beginning and end will be in black and white mod, but the forest and faeries will be hippie-styled.

Plus, Beatles music.

I'm excited.

That sounds awesome

For our performance, we set it in New Orleans, and the faeries were in the bayou.

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

I think my parents are going to pay for me to go on my school's theatre study tour, too, again...

Meaning I'll get to see 6 shows in 4 days again

 

[PeterPanPatrick]

Im gonna try to get my parents to let me got to this week long fine arts camp.

 

[AliceinHalloweentown]

I'm going to go to Carnegie Mellon for 6 weeks this summer to do a pre-college program in Theatre Design... I can't wait

 

[thisonegirl]

I LOVE Theatre.

I'm going to an performing arts high school for theatre in the fall.

I try to do lots, but I live in the middle of North Carolina, far away from local theatres, so it's hard. My real friends are in theatre, though. Amazing people. I have a story on miracles!(right before a show) Yes, they do happen.

 

[MusicalDisneyDreams]

I love to act. I've gotten lots better this year. I'm hopefully going to be in the fall play and the spring musical next year. All of my friends are somehow related to my school's theatre department.
Improv, anyone?

 

[DisneyWriter627]

I'm completely theatre obsessed. Broadway actually. I've done... hmmm.... 9 shows in the past four years. I go to New York annually and see three or four shows. I've seen eight in total.
Right now, I am really obsessed with Sherie Rene Scott and her new show Everyday Rapture. She has great, great talent.
Anyone else watching the Tonys tonight? I sure am! Hoping Sherie wins the Tonys she is nominated for, though I wouldn't mind seeing Catherine Zeta Jones winning for Best Actress either. I'm going to NY in August or July, not to sure what shows I'm seeing. If Everyday Rapture extends its run I'll see that, if Chenoweth stays in Promises, Promises I'll see that, I'd like to see American Idiot and Memphis, but A Little Night Music looks good too. And of course, I wouldn't mind seeing a play like Fences.

That was where the version I saw was set to. Like New Orleans 1959 during Mardi Gras.
