A thoughtful act can take on many forms from a little jester to the biggest jester, even the littlest acts can take a big form. Here's a scenario let's say if someone is walking down the hall at your school. Caring all their books and papers, somebody trips him, sending his books and papers flying through the air. The person may become upset about it but doing a thoughtful act like help them…
I liked all the main characters, in particular, I liked King Charles. Fin Ong pulled off a superb performance as King Charles. King Charles was childish, very loud, easily angered and, contrastingly, also sincerely patriotic. Fin was able to express this childishness through his impatient gestures and oddly comedic tone of voice. This childish tone was…
It is the grand gathering of musical party goers to the famed playboy mansion of LA, California. The party consists of several musicians and celebrities including Brian Hugh Warner or ''Marilyn Manson'', Neil Gaiman, Amanda Palmer, James Euringer, Lindsey and Gerard Way, Mikey Way, Frank Iero, Ray Toro, and several others. The party is set far into my future I may or may not have, in which we are celebrating the release of my very first album. The characters I have chosen, I have chosen out of…
Radiolab Playing God with Sheri Fink First of all, it was very emotional and the wrestling with the idea and implementation of triage was thought provoking. Onto the actual structure of the piece. I enjoyed all of the background music and noises. For example, when reporter Sheri Fink described the scene of the refugees in Macedonia being stuck between the borders, the inclusion of the murmuring sounds took the story from being mere words to letting me actually “see” the scene with a sea of…
For the third music critique I am going to talk about the performances of Gunnar Biggs and Bill Bradburry. First of all, I must say this was my favorite performance of the semester so far. I love the bass and it amazes me how beautiful the mandolin plays music. The musician who played the bass was Gunnar while the mandolin was played Bill. They both played Irish traditional music, however in their performance they improvised solos when usually you don’t in Irish traditional music. Both Gunnar…

younger generation than the older generations because during some of the witty humor skits the younger generation was laughing but the older people just sat their with no emotion or expressions on their faces. Even though, I laughed a lot during the performance the older adults did not affect my perception of the…
I was horrified. I had never performed such a major role nor had I ever sung a solo part. I was new to the world of theater. Having just had a wonderful experience performing a small part in The Little Mermaid, I decided to continue pursuing my passion for theater. When I auditioned for the musical Annie, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and audition for the part of Oliver Warbucks. After singing to an audience for the first time, I went home and anxiously anticipating the email to…
This is exactly how I felt throughout the show while observing this stupendous musical. I went to see the September 26th invited dress rehearsal showing of “A Chorus Line” at Patti Strickel Harrison Theatre. I was in complete awe throughout the performance and was also incredibly proud to come from a university filled with an abundance amount of talent. The cast fits the character descriptions for the show so well, and they made a lasting impression on the audience. “A Chorus line” is a musical…
