American stage actors

This essay has employed the word ‘fan’ in more than one instance. Yet, what is a fan? It is someone who admires or loves an object of fandom such as a celebrity, a movie, or a sports team, for instance, and has extensive knowledge of that object (Kloet & van Zoonen, 2007, p.323). Moreover, fans feel a deep emotional connection as well as an attachment to their fandom, which leads them to pass a considerate amount of time on it (Kloet & van Zoonen, 2007, p.323). Additionally, fans are likely to…

Imagine being at your favorite artist’s concert and singing along to your favorite song with your friends and having a great night. Then, the music stops and you hear ear defining sounds coming from inside the arena. You look around and see blood, bomb fragments, and people running all around you trying to escape the nightmare. This was a reality for thousands of people at Ariana Grande’s concert in Manchester in May. The terrorist attack at Ariana Grande’s concert in Manchester caused an…

happens to live next door to myself. What was performed on that stage far passed any expectation, any standard, and definitely wiped any doubts I had. Upon first entering the theatre my mood was of course a little down because I was stuck in the mindset that I was just here because I had to for a class. It is a rough thing to be honest about but it was how I felt at first. My curiosity was peeked however when I actually entered the stage area. The first thing I noticed was the nicely dressed…

drinking and partying as empty cups and bottle were used. I thought this decision was bothersome and I’m unsure why it was implemented this way. Furthermore, early in the play Sir Toby stumbled onto stage, drunk nonetheless, and burps were played of the speakers. Not only was Melanie Schultz, the actor who played Sir Toby, poor in timing the sounds with her burping “movement,” but it was also the only time the loud speakers were used during the play (besides song) which made it stick out like…

people decided to accept telephones into their society. Proscenium Stage I decided to use a Proscenium Stage because the play needed spacious set given that there is a lot of running through the play. A Proscenium Stage would allow us to set all the furniture and sets in a spacious manner. We also use a wall to separate the kitchen from the living room and we are only able to make that without blocking anyone’s view with a Proscenium Stage. Ground Plan The ground plan is very spacious and has…

It is the final days in the senior week. The school has set up a stage on Foss Hill and invited four alumni bands to come and perform. It is almost like a small-scale version of Spring Fling, and therefore, many Wesleyan students decide to savor this event as it can be their last chance to do drugs with their college buddies. Jin and Xavier, of course, are ones of these students. Xavier manages to get themselves two doses of magic mushrooms, which are in high demand at the time, so he can't…

On Monday, November 13th, 2017 I attended the Steel Band concert in the Fine Arts Recital Hall directed by Dr. Scott Harris. I formally had never attended a concert of this kind. When I thought of a steel band before I would think of just tubas and trumpets, I never thought it would be a band of Caribbean type steel drums. From the very beginning I was greeted with many interesting details which presently surprised me. Overall Western Kentucky University’s Steel Band concert was a very…

A situation where I experienced all six stages of Brommel’s Stages of the Conflictual Process is with an ex-boyfriend of two years. In the beginning of our dating process he had an ex-girlfriend that he still had feelings for which influenced him to stay in contact with her without my knowledge. Four months in he disappeared on me and cut all communication off with me. I then discovered that it was due to him returning to dating his ex-girlfriend. This made me livid. But after two weeks he…

Excitement came through as we waited for September 26, 2015 to be near. A friend and I had bought tickets several months earlier for the Ariana Grande Concert at the Barclay Center, and it was the most anticipated event we had at that time. When we arrived at the location, there was an immediate thrill of excitement in the air. We waited in line with other individuals that were also planning on attending the concert, and we all heard the screaming and excited cries of other people near my friend…

The theater buzzes with energy and excitement, magic flowing throughout the room for the first time in five years as Eddie Redmayne appears on the silver screen. The crowd roars to life as four men from Baltimore take the stage, a sight I have waited to see so long that it nearly brings me to tears. The world of the Norse Gods springs to life as I join the teenage demigod Magnus Chase on another death-defying adventure. A sea of blue and gold overtakes Rider Stadium on a beautiful June day, and…
