    Essay On Signature Theatre

    Although Signature Theatre has not yet produced Guys and Dolls, it is one that their company could undoubtedly do in the future. The theatre certainly has the capabilities and facilities necessary to produce a high quality version of this musical. However, this fact, although relevant is not the most important factor in deciding whether or not they would choose to produce the show. The theatre must also have a desire to pick this specific musical out of the hundreds of other choices that exist. An examination of Signature Theatre’s history and current goals helps one to see if this desire exists.…

    Leah Mueller's Observation At Delta Middle School

    “If theatre were available during the school day for all students, it would allow most students to experience the joy of theatre, even those who wouldn’t necessarily try it outside of school.” For Mueller, theatre has proven an integral part of her education, identity, and now even her career. A 2008 State High alumna, she reflects on her SCASD experience: “My best memories are from high school when I had the opportunity to sing in many choirs and perform with the State High Thespians,” said Mueller.…

    Personal Narrative: Richard Wagner

    My mother first introduced me to the idea of Wagner, raving about its theatre program, arguing I was a perfect fit. Growing up less than an hour from Boston, I slightly tasted city life throughout my childhood; yet always wanted to be a part of something bigger than a middle class town. Wagner’s location blends NYC life with my hometown environment, appealing to both sides of my personality. Further influenced my by mother’s review, I began researching Wagner’s website, where I discovered the Port Richmond Partnership. I grew up doing community service with my father at soccer fields on Saturday mornings, and I strive to combine volunteering with theatre.…

    Astra Theater History

    Holding memories of the past, an Astra ticket stub symbolizes more than a piece of paper, it is a piece of history. Jasper, Indiana’s, downtown square swallows the Astra theater with its dank lights and cloudy windows. In the process of being reborn, the vacant building, and its once shining neon sign, stands as if there is light at the end of the tunnel. Because of the tenacity of civic minded patrons, the historic Astra theater on the square begins its transformation from a vacant memory filled business into the future home of cultural entertainment for the modern day community.…

    Observation: Valley Center High School

    During the months of January and February, I observed the theatre tech class at Valley Center High School. The tech class includes Edie Reese, Conner Peterson, Madison Isham, Pattanun ‘Bell’ Punjanun, Michael Charvat, Chris Paul, Jacque Toews, Sabrina Gamblin, Ashlyn Pollard, Trace Tobin, Tommy Brown, Janett Duerksen, Kaitie Showalter, and me. We meet everyday during fourth hour, which is from 10:38 to 11:30. I chose my tech class to observe because it is a social group that I see every single day and it is about half the size of my normal classes. We also have some of the same values; we want to build things fast, but also make sure they are built safely and we all enjoy discussing different movies while working.…

    African American Hair History

    A common misconception is the belief that African American history begins in America. Dating back to West African tribal civilizations, hair was seen as an extension of a person. By looking at a person’s hair, one could discern multiple aspects of their identity. According to Seiber and Herreman (2000), hairstyles reflected social “status, gender, ethnic origin, leadership role, personal taste, or place in the cycle of life” (pg. 56).…

    Difference Between Greek And Elizabethan Theatre

    Over the centuries, theatre conventions evolved from the highly presentational performances of the Greeks to the extravagance of Elizabethan productions and eventually conglomerated to produce contemporary theatre. The University Playhouse’s performance of Acting: The First Six Lessons expressed this conglomeration of Greek and Elizabethan conventions through elements of presentational theatre, a non-localized set, and a supporting cast that functioned similar to a chorus or ensemble. This performance also altered conventions through the addition of female actors, use of representational aspects, adaption of the functions of the chorus or ensemble, and lack of a raised stage. In the following sections, I will discuss the adoption and adaptation…

    College Admissions Essay: My Passion In The Performing Arts

    The heat from the stage lights, the watchful gazes of the audience, and the sweat dripping off of our faces as we struggle to remember our lines, these sensations of being on stage are what caused the performing arts to become not only an activity, but also a passion and an unexpected source of personal growth. Through my experiences in drama and music I have been able to discover my own meaning of fulfillment and define who the person behind my appearance truly is. My passion in the performing arts started when I was a young child first learning to play the violin. Picking up the violin at the age of 6, I became stuck on one of the most basic songs for almost a whole year. At that time no one believed that I could play the violin, my teacher thought that I was too hyperactive and even my mom attempted to convince me to quit.…

    Stage Management: The Evolution Of Stage Management

    To examine the evolution of stage management, we must first examine how the term came about, and other terms for the stage managers predecessors. Then we can begin to look into how the role has evolved over time into the present craft students are being taught on technical production courses in theatre in different locations around the world. To begin, we must investigate the term of ‘stage management’. As we look back into history, we can see that people who were what we know today as stage managers, did not have that title, however they performed a similar function in the theatre.…

    Othello Analysis

    On Friday 24th October 2014, I went to see Frantic Assembly’s version of William Shakespeare’s ‘Othello’, directed by Scott Graham and Steven Hoggett. Frantic Assembly are a theatre company whose performances are primarily dominated by their unusual use of physical theatre to express emotions of characters and uncover hidden meanings within the play through the use of movement. The play was performed to an audience of mostly young adults and teenagers, perhaps because it had been reconceptualised, which possibly appeals to younger generations. Before the play began, there was a very clear and deliberately created atmosphere.…

    Deaf Theatre History

    Deaf theater has been an active cultural aspect of the Deaf community as early as the late 1800’s (Bradford & Sandahl, 2005, p.86). When the first Residential schools opened for the Deaf, many teachers searched for ways to entertain students on weekends when many felt homesick. Storytelling and performances were introduced after the establishment of literary clubs, which had the purpose of helping students improve debate and signing skills (Miles,1974). After the establishment of Gallaudet and other Deaf residential schools and colleges the tradition of talent shows that included; skits , plays, solo performances and adaptations based on English literary works became widespread (Miles, 1974). The Silent movie era was also another key component…
