I loved being a part of “Comedy Tonight”! My favorite moments from the show was when Jack threw the baby swans and of course when I got to be Hilliary and Mr. McBreen. Being able to play real people really helped me work on my character acting. It made me be more aware of Mr. Mcbreen’s mannerisms and his accent in class, and it made me even watch the way he walked.
Every single person that I worked with was amazing and extremely talented. I loved getting the experience of being a student director and I hope that I have the opportunity to do it again in the future. It gave me a new perspective on theatre, one of which I loved.
In addition to student directing, I loved being able to collaborate with Grace, John and Mrs. Guarino. When you share ideas, and work with each other’s opinions, it allows you to create a unique scene and it teaches you to be patient.
Each scene had great blocking, comedic delivery, and most of all, wonderful energy! That was what I loved the most about the show. Every moment that an actor had the stage, they managed to maintain a wonderful and a very high level of energy- much like the energy we saw on “School of Rock”. I thought that many students had great diction, and enunciation. Backstage, everyone was quiet and excited to perform. It was wonderful to be surrounded by such energetic people.
Performing in this show was one of the highlights of my year! It was a great experience and I will not forget it. I really appreciate Mrs. Monahan’s and Mrs. Guarino’s dedication and patience with this show as well. I look forward to doing theatre again next year, and working with more wonderful casts.
For my final project, I chose to perform “Burn” from Hamilton. I love how many emotions the character Eliza portrays in this song and how touching her performance is in the show. Because I respect the actress who plays her, I feel very passionate about doing this song. I hope it goes well!
