Curtain Theatre

My main artistic intention for this play will be to deliver Rotand’s underlying message as well as launch the audience into a whirlwind of emotion. Insecurities and lack of self-worth still exists within society today. My production of Cyrano De Bergerac will allow my audience to connect with the characters on a more deeper and more personal level. The intended audience will be for the romantics. People who still believes true love is still out there. It will also be intended for people with…

The play I decided to see for my theatre experience was the called Stupid Fucking Bird. Myself and two other from the class went down to Portland Center Stage theatre in downtown. Walking up to the play there had been a good about people walking in to the theatre as due to the fact that it was just about to start. As we walking into the main door I was actual taken back with how many people I had see inside the box area. The people who where here to see the play where on the older side of life…

Curtain Call Youth Players offers high quality performing arts camps for the youth in metro Atlanta. The goal of the organization is to fill the community need of educating children in various aspects of live theatre as well as nurture their love for performance and production. As an assistant director for several consecutive summers, I worked closely with many distinguished theatre educators to provide an environment where children could further develop their social, intellectual, communication…

memorizing lines, blocking, stepping out on the stage opening night, bowing for curtain call, meeting the audience. I love acting. I live to do it, and it defines me. In college, I hope to pursue theatre as a major and develop my skills, eventually making it into a career. And I will approach all the challenges of college as an actor does by being as dedicated to my studies as I am to my shows and displaying my passion for theatre and education. The dictionary defines “acting” as "the art of…

The event I went to was the production of the Dead Gallery:The Phobias put on by Eastern Michigan University in honor of Halloween. The production took place in the lab theatre of Quirk, and lasted only about 20 minutes. It had four actors who were always on stage, who were leading a sort of gallery of fear. Throughout the show, they pulled “unwitting audience participants” to the stage and made them live through their biggest fears. The production culminated in a man whose greatest fear was…

Similar to how theatre works; the curtain opens and the entire set is visible, then characters go onstage and the focus is drawn to a specific part of the set. The Glass family loves theatre, and shows that even their very lives are a performance. The detailed description of each room leads to the reader being able to imagine what the scene looks like.The Glass family Bathroom, Living Room, Seymour and Buddies old room, and the Parents room are all prime examples of how Salinger describes the…

Anya was so beautiful and talented and I could feel her pain and her happiness. It was truly breathtaking seeing this show. I heard other sniffles around the theatre so I know I wasn’t the only one who was moved by her performance. The audience was really in tune with the characters and could relate to them in such a real way the our reactions were just as genuine as the actors story. Everything that the characters…

There are many factors that goes into producing a successful show that helps create a lasting impression on the audience. The actors’ choices on how to play their individual characters, the technicalities of the stage and how the director used the theatre itself, and how effective the rapport is between the actors and audience all…

become an equity actor was that so I could become one if I was ever driven or skilled enough to do so. So truthfully this project was something that I needed to do and I said why not do it for a grade if I’m going to do all this work. The thing about theatre and being an actor that has always truly intrigued me was that, it allowed me to step away from the real world and pretend that I was not who I was actually. I could pretend that I was god, a king, a newspaper reporter or a…

to sit through Chicago and even Singin’ In The Rain and pretended to like them. However, viewing this musical in college with young students as the actors it seemed more appealing, and funnier than I remember from the movie. When sitting in the theatre I scanned through the audience, and they appeared to have adored this production, especially when the character Cosmo was talking. From overhearing the reactions at the end of the play, I’d say it was a success because people were happy with…
