An additional level of theater lies on the community that is formed by a cast. All cast members are supposed to act the way they think their character would act. An aspect of this is the intrapersonal relationships they must understand between their characters and other characters. The actor playing the Phantom, in The Phantom of the Opera, has to have an intrapersonal relationship with Christine, Raoul, Carlotta, Madame Giry and many other cast members/characters. However, as with the personal…

I chose to make my project about kabuki theatre in Tokugawa Era Japan. Created early in the era, kabuki theatre is an iconic and important aspect of the Tokugawa Era. Its importance is still relevant today as kabuki theatre remains a popular form of entertainment in modern day Japan. In my exhibit, I made sure to use a neutral tone to avoid any bias in providing viewers with the history of kabuki theatre. The purpose of this exhibit is to provide the history of kabuki and let the viewers make…

plot that you don't stop to think about where it actually originated from. It all started in Ancient Athens where they would celebrate with festivals in honor of their gods. Without this background who knows how theatre would be today. Greek theatre has created a path for modern theatre to build off of.

While the movie provides visuals for the characters along with explanations of events in the audio play, it seems the movie leaves little imagination for the reader compared to the audio play. The audio play, despite allowing the reader to imagine the circumstances, can also be considered as not enough for some…

On October 5, 2017, at 8 o’clock at the Wooly Mammoth theater in Washington D.C., I saw the production of The Arsonists. This production of The Arsonists was about class privilege and the performers in this play did an excellent job in making the spectators see the differences between the working class, the homeless, and the rich. The actors and actresses embodied their characters with all their hearts and did a wonderful performance. The director could not have picked better a better crew to…

Lucy McCormick, of ‘GET IN THE BACK OF THE VAN’ (GITBOTV), influenced my practice through her solo workshop and subsequent conversations because I found her style and attitude towards creative work particularly stimulating and we share an enthusiasm for pushing theatrical boundaries. Her approach demonstrates that, “the question of boundaries and extremes is always in the room” (McCormick, 2014). In our workshop on ‘The Importance of Being Ernest’ Lucy got one of my classmates, Laura, to chew…

What does theatre mean to me? As I review the questions provided for me to include in my goal statement, I feel lucky to express how theatre is unique to me and how I structure my everyday life around the dramatic arts. Anytime I act, I relish in the opportunity to be a leader, to help people, and to accomplish my actions with confidence. I started off with this philosophy at an early age and have not forgotten about it since. In my opinion, acting is not solely about the individual’s…
