The musical Seussical the Musical was a jovial experience that made many including me reminiscence the times when we read Dr. Suess. The creative sets, colorful costumes, and the acting skills brought Dr. Seuss 's books alive. I truly enjoyed the aspect of joining Dr. Seuss books and plots, like Gertrude McFuzz to create one plot and the inclusion of The Cat in the Hat in many of the scenes. The musical captured the ambience of the books, specifically Horton Hears A Who. The dedication of those in the musical shined from their eminent acting skills and their ability to display the character they portrayed.
I think this is by far the best musical all of the songs in the movie are extremely catchy and all of the actors in the movie do a great job of portraying their character especially Rick Moranis who plays the main character. As I have said before they do an amazing job on the puppet work for the plant and the actual voice actor for the plant does an amazing job of making you love the character. They also did a great job of all the sets in the movie they really made it look like 1950’s/60’s New York in a poor run down neighborhood and it really adds to the whole experience of the movie. I think you should really see this movie while it is obviously not in theaters anymore it is on dvd and blu ray while I am not sure how much a normal dvd is the blu ray is 20 dollars and includes a lot of special features if you are interested in that kind of thing but i 'm sure you could find it randomly on your tv one day and just record it on your dvr
I remember feeling entranced and taken away as I watched the musical. In my opinion, this show was a complete success and there were many aspects of the show that served as an incredibly impressive detail. The plot was a little unclear once the show began, but I believe it was meant to be that way as an attention getting device. As an audience member, I was able to clearly point out the plot points, crises, and obstacles as well as the climax, and resolution.
In the Heights a play full enthusiasm and full of energy, it won many awards including a Tony award it was produced and directed by Lin Manuel Miranda. It was performed in Irvington Town hall Theatre on August 15 ,2014. It is a musical that carries a lot of messages, that brings connection to many people about wanting to experience something new and wanting to find home. Usnavi a man who live and own a Bodega in Washington Heights want to connect to his root in the Dominican Republic by going back since he hasn 't gone in a long time.
When I attended Shrek the Musical put on by Wylie High Schools Theater Department, I admit that I did not have high expectations. I had always enjoyed the Shrek movies, but was not prepared to witness the green Ogre come to life before my eyes. From the moment the characters marched down the isle of the auditorium, it was evident that many talented people had put time in effort into making this performance enjoyable and memorable. Shrek the Musical consisted of a tremendous cast, beautiful music, awe inspiring scenery in addition to heart felt imagery.
The musical, “The Drowsy Chaperone”, was unfortunately unfamiliar to me until I watched it at Charlotte Country Day School. The only previous knowledge I had of this show was the short description I read online. However, I feel that the element of surprise made this musical even better. “The Drowsy Chaperone” was absolutely lovely from start to finish and I am especially pleased that Country Day’s production was the first rendition I saw. There are so many aspects of this show that I love.
I am Julianna Jenkins an outgoing Musical Theater major with a dream to be an entertainment lawyer. I have been going to Appomattox Regional Governors School for 3 years as a Musical Theater Major. One of the reason I fell in love with Greensboro College is because it has a small community and that will give my an opportunity to grow. After meeting some of the Musical Theater students from freshman to senior they all said that they have gotten support from student and teachers at Greensboro. They also said that Greensboro is not a place that you will get lost in the crowd.
My Theme Song Songs can connect with how we feel and our experiences. Music has been a major part of my life ever since I was just a toddler. For me music has helped me express what I am feeling and who I am as a person. My therapy has been music, it has helped me through almost every problem I have faced. With listening to the song lyrics, we can get a true understanding of what the artist is trying to tell us.
The performing arts presentation I decide to go to was Macbeth. William Shakespeare originally did Macbeth in the 1500. The play is about about how a young man tries to gain power and tries to kill the king. After that is done Macbeth, who is the main character gets paranoid. Macbeth by AACC was a interesting production.
From the moment I stepped past through the set of large, orange colored, double doors into the exhibit hall floor I knew it was everything I had ever dreamed it would be. The first thing I laid my eyes on was a blue and white poster that stretched from end to end titled "Welcome Nerds! To PLANET COMIC-CON! " If you can imagine the smell in the air was a mix of excitement and the overwhelming passion for pop culture. Over the past few months, my friends and I recently made the bold decision to embark on an unforgettable adventure like never before.
My experience in Pickering High School cabaret was extremely gratifying. During rehearsals, I made new friends and strengthened the existing relationships I had. Being an actor in this extracurricular taught me the need to manage my time, and helped me improve my memorization and learning skills. It pushed me to continue to excel in my academic classes, while balancing homework and leisure time with rehearsal time. Leading up to show dates, I was sacrificing my lunch hour everyday to improve the show to the best it could be.
The show I went to see was none other than Xavier’s Legend of Sleepy Hollow on October 20th at 7:00 P.M. The casting was great, and all the actors and actresses played a character. The stage wasn’t too cluttered, but it also had enough props on it to add to the story. The lighting was good, and the transition were good. The audience was a mix between adults and children, but there were mainly children.
When I first heard about Wicked, I was 14 years old and clueless about the world of musical theatre. It wasn't until the next year when I saw this show live that I had completely been changed for good. As I saw the show just mere months after deciding that I wanted to pursue performance after my O levels, Wicked truly did a number on me. I remember sitting there at the end of act 1 where Elphaba is up in the air belting about how no one is going to stand in her way of chasing her dreams just awestruck during the intermission. I even took my phone out and made a note about how there was truly a difference watching Defying Gravity on a screen and live.
The closest thing I’ve ever been to going to a play is actually being involved in one. During my high school years I was very involved in the theater and by doing this I could see things from the perspective of both the audience and director, which brought in even broader spectrum of the playwright community then attending a play as just an audience member. My experience involving going to a play is both negative and positive, because as a cast member I know first-hand how stressful yet rewarding the experience can be. The excitement and joy that is attributed when a play first starts, followed by the suspense of the plot, and then the thrill of the ending can be a wondrous experience that leads the audience very satisfied.
I had been in band from fifth grade through high school so even just hearing an ensemble sound again was amazing as I miss band very much. I also really enjoyed The Swan Lake Suite as it has been one of my favorite pieces since I was little, so it was also really nice to hear something that I already knew a little of how it would go. The orchestra sounded amazing and I am also good friends with one of the bassoon players so it was neat that one of our concerts to choose from had someone I knew in it. It was so interesting to hear all of the elements we have been discussing in class, actually in person and it was helpful that I was in band throughout school
