The Paramount Theater is one of the most historical buildings in Aurora, and considered one of the top ten theaters in the Chicago area.The history of The Paramount Theater is a unique story to be told. I became more and more curious how 'd it come to be so popular? how did it all start? who designed this magnificent theater? with and without its restorations, and will it continue to be for many years.I know someone that 's been working there for many years, and he has offer to give a tour of the theater.

The Blockbuster Disney movie came to life is was amazing in this Paramount theater production is perfect for the holidays and fun for all ages is more than I thought it would be never would I imagined a theater production like this would of have made me want to come back and see more. Ariel and sebastian and the entire underwater world came to life as they embark on a quest for Ariel love. The best part was the full- orquesta oh it was amazing it wen perfectly with the production I never would 've expected this type of performance. If I would 've know that The Paramount was this great i would have honestly gone to many more show, this experience was one in a lifetime. They had amazing crafted underwater creatures that were well over 10ft tall, which in my opinion would be considered as art they made the production more real as a whole.

    I went to see ‘Elf the Musical Jr.’ on Thursday, December 1, 2016. The tickets were $15 For decent seats and in my opinion, the show plus the seats that we had were not at all worth the $15, that we spent. This musical is not a show that I would recommend to anyone, at anytime. It was that bad. But, to help you understand in my own opinion as to why ‘Elf the Musical Jr.’ was so bad, let me give you some feedback and get into a little more detail in the next few paragraphs.…

    In class we discussed a case study called “The Theater Budget” about an organization called Greater Euclid Little Theater, which is a small group of adults staging performances. The organization changed after Cathy Cole, the then newly artistic director was appointed. After Cathy Cole, left her position, Andy Spaulding took on the position as an artistic director. In the case study provided, the case starts with the discussion on increasing salary pay for Any Spaulding, however many board members including Jane Dobbs, the Vice President for Administration and President-elect, David Price, President and Treasurer Nicky Counts all came with the agreement that they were unable to provide the amount of salary Spaulding wanted because of insufficient…

    Westdale Movie Theatre is the only single screen theatre remaining in Hamilton (Wilson, 2012). It was built in the 1930s and is the only theatre constructed in that period to still continue to function as a cinema today (Wilson, 2012). The 1930s and 1940s were known as the golden days of movies; during this time there were over 20 movie theatres within Hamilton that served the public and consisted of theatre that were small and contained roughly 400 seats, to medium sized theatres that contained roughly 800 seats and larger theatres that contained roughly 2000 seats or more(Wilson, 2012).

    Broadway Musical Analysis

    When professor mentioned that we would watch and discuss about a Broadway Musical show named ‘Memphis’, the first that came to my mind was, the actual city Memphis in the southern state of Tennessee. I was still confused as to how a city and its activities could be incorporated into a Musical show, which is assumed to be entertaining with melodramatic components, dance and music. I had an assumption that it would be academic, political, boring since it is to be watched in a classroom setting and that a professor would not choose something entertaining or something of the liking of the younger generation. I deduced that this play might touch the topic of race since race defined how a person is treated in most southern states. I assumed that…

    Black Theatre Analysis

    • 565 Words
    • 3 Pages

    One of the first things discussed in Eleanor Traylor's essay about Black theatre are the two main forms of contributions made which are minstrel show and slave narrative which is what she focuses on the most. Minstrel show is the first American dramatic form which came from the "tradition of confrontation and improvisation of grace under pressure" (48) which did not have the same roots as European contexts. The process of the creation of minstrel shows was created in America by African people. The contrast between the mask of the blues hero and the tragic protagonist also come into play when looking at the influence of African Americans. It goes beyond the journey, but into the rhythms and vision as well as the angle in which they see life…

    “Capitol Theatre is at the former site of the Belmore Markets. The latter, built by George McRae (Architect) and Norman Selfe (structural engineer) in 1891, but was commercially unsuccessful due to its location, being too far from Darling Harbour.

    Moving Theatre October 24, 2015 Joshua Chong It gets interesting when you take a play, put it outdoors and stretch it out over 3 kilometres. Even more so when each scene is written by different playwrights. Some may call it original, others may call that weird. My Lakeshore My Home (MLMH), produced by Sirius Theatrical is one of these plays.…

    Maybe it’s because I had a great honor to announce that the band was going to Disneyland. Or maybe it was because I’ve gotten to know our amazing conductor and teacher for a solid two school years, in which this would be my last. No matter what the reason, this concert was truly amazing and sounded fantastic, even if we all panicked and went crazy before the concert just because Nico didn't show up. Anyway, the one true thing that stood out to me from our concert was the trumpet section playing “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” in a part from “Cartoon Christmas”. Wow.…

    The pieces met my expectation, because the tone of it was very interesting especially on how it started and how it progressed during the play. I enjoyed the music because it was inspirational like humanity accomplished a great feat, also how. Also the demeanor o the musicians looked very concentrated and as for the audience they appeared to be comfortable and interested. This effected my impression of the music because the audience weren’t reacting with the tone of the music which made in confusing for myself on how to react. I would attend the concert again because it is interesting to hear and it’s a piece of history that many individuals do not appreciate and take their time to listen to something classic and beautiful the roots of music.…

    I am currently a junior in high school looking for a challenge to handle work and school, as well as extra curricular activities. I have grown up to see Regency Theatres Plant 16 establish shortly after the previous theater had shut down. Whenever I come to this movie theater I always feel welcomed by the friendly staff and reasonable ticket pricing. I love watching this place grow; I remember the soda dispensers used to be in concessions, but now there's two coca-cola machines with many flavors to choose from! Living in this community for almost 17 years has made me feel attached to the variety of stores The Plant has to offer.…

    Pippin was phenomenal. I absolutely loved it. My eyes were glued to the stage the entire time and I could not stop smiling. The entire production was done spectacularly and as a whole was very satisfying: the choreography, the singing, the acting, the music, the lighting, the costumes, the set, the technical assistance, all had impressive commitment and efforts from every individual behind the production. When it ended and the mesmerizing spell cast upon me had lapsed, I was left with profound astonishment, ‘Wow…… was that really a school play?’…
