You have talent and intelligence and a chance. I think you should take those goals and expand them. Think of the most you could do with your lives. Make what you do matter. Above all, dream big, (Bernstein
“Don’t be afraid to explore, ask questions and take chances,” my dad would tell me. You see, my dad, an engineer, tried to get me to question everything. He is never afraid to learn a little bit more about something he already knows and is always eager to learn something new; I take after him. I love to learn, and figure out how things work. It's not surprising, then, that I plan on majoring in engineering; what is, perhaps, surprising, is that these same habits of mind led to me developing an interest in and passion for theatre.
ST: I had wanted to be an actress since I was in high school. I loved being in the school plays, and I had a very inspiring high school teacher who put his heart and soul into mounting a show. I learned early on that it takes a lot of hard work and dedication, but that the overall reward is so worth it. I then went on to study theatre in university and received my Batchelor of Fine Arts degree in Theatre and haven't looked back! Photo by Ryan Crocker
The stars shine bright on the vast stage of the galaxy. The awe-inspiring constellations have shifted and torn, casting stars light-years from their position, giving each a dancing partner. Each star compliments their companion and each shine brighter than they could have alone. The stars twinkle softly and watch me watching them. I wish to teach them, for I have lived a long, prosperous life and I know I can teach them so much.
When I was growing up, I experienced many hardships that most people don 't endure. I grew up in the city of Phoenix, Arizona with little to nothing. I had one little sister and an older sister and brother. Even though I was young I knew how difficult my parents had it. My mom worked three jobs and my dad worked in construction just to barely support us.
My passion for theater blossomed when I entered High School, I was one of those kids who didn’t automatically fit in with the rest of the group. I was different and I knew it, I just didn’t
Knowing how to sing is a blessing that may come naturally to some people, but to others it requires practice and effort to learn how to properly develop this gift. Having seen many live performances and having a dad who could sing was an inspiration for me to develop such a talent. Music has always been my passion, and I knew that singing would give me another exciting opportunity to enjoy the feeling performance creates. I did not have a natural voice from a young age so learning to sing was challenging and pushed me beyond my orchestral limits--emotionally and physically--but with the strong desire I had and the toil I was willing to endure when learning this art, I persevered to becoming a singer.
C.S. Lewis once said, “I believe in Christ, like I believe in the sun- not because I can see it, but by it I can see everything else.” I have used this quote as a guide for myself throughout my journey to finding the Lord. Putting my faith into someone “intangible” and having faith in Christ has not been an easy task for me, given I was not raised in an extremely religious household. However, I was about fourteen when I discovered God’s word, felt my heart swell with happiness, and fell in love with Christ. That day changed my life entirely, and completely changed my outlook of the world.
In the future I want to be successful not only for myself, but also for my parents and friends to be proud of me. I want to end up being successful with an amazing career, and not end up struggling without the ability
I could have gone into science or even audition for classical music, because of my experience in Hawaii Opera Theatre Young Voice Studio and in private voice. It wasn’t hard to hear my conscious yearning for musical theatre. My goals in life are to be happy and to fill my life with as much experience, and knowledge in order to maximize my potential. I believe that the best version of myself expands and grows with every new show I am in. Theatre experience has taught me so much and given me so much work for and be proud of.
Imagine you are an actor arriving at an audition. You enter a waiting room and see all these people who talk like you, look like you, and are auditioning for the same part as you. Would you still have what it takes to show someone how you are different? Theatre has been apart of education in schools since 1965. It has helped guide people and it has given the world great entertainers.
My main at the moment goal is first of all to learn as much as I can about the field of musical theatre and improve my skills as much as possible, while enjoying the art of acting and singing. After that, I hope to be able to express those abilities in professional theatres across the United Kingdom and maybe even outside of it. Though I cannot but care for glamorous titles such as "the west end" of "Broadway", I wouldn 't mind working at any theatre as long as I 'm surrounded by talented people, who know how to tell a good story through stage, and as long as I am given the opportunity to do
I believe that our school should have a Broadway/Musical Theater Club. Many people ask; “How will this benefit our school?” A Musical Theater/Broadway Club can benefit our school in many ways. One is in history class. Many broadway shows talk about very important events in history.
What is acting? Acting is where one person takes in the role, behavior, attitudes, and other traits of another person or character in a script for either a film or play. With an acting major you will spend a lot of time working on your body and the way you move on stage. In most acting majors you will have six main classes that you must take to graduate. You will have to have a class for acting, voice for actors, movement, improvisation, theatre history, and maybe an actor coaching class depending on what college you go to.
Music has always been a part of my life. In definition, it is “vocal or instrumental sounds combined in such a way as to produce beauty of form, harmony, and expression of emotion.” Ever since I was a young child, I have loved music. The strong, steady beats, the entrancing melodies, and the lyrics that vary between heartwarming and heart-wrenching have always had an unexplainable effect on my life. Music seems to have the ability to change certain aspects of my world.
