The Rover

OH ALSO I went to see Rover about 3 weeks ago now haha. forgot to blog about it. first time seeing a play here at college!  it was really funny actually! i had to read about it on wikipedia beforehand so i knew what it was about.  they should really put a summary in the brochures they give out.  all the actors did such a good job. they had to speak in accents which were kind of hard to understand. and some of the jokes i couldnt really get either.  but other ones were hilarious.  i think it was about Hellena being slutty before she has to go off into a covenant.  i think i liked it because of all the sexual jokes. really kept the play interesting.  the sword fight was SO COOL. they were so good i could not even believe it.  anywho, although the plot was a little hard to understand i really enjoyed it!

HAPPY CINCO DE MAYO!

So it's been awhile since our play but I just finished my finals so I found some time to blog!  The play was sooo much fun!  Everyone did so good I couldn't even believe it.  Nobody had to yell LINE haha.  I was definitely nervous that that was gonna be me.  But I didn't forget my lines either!  I was so happy.  There was one part where Alex I think said too many of his lines without letting me respond and it threw me off big time but luckily I picked up from where it made sense so nobody noticed.  I think Alex did a really good job.  Everyone was laughing.  Even my laughs were genuine haha.  All of the other scenes were really good too.  Some funnier than others some more heart felt than others but all in all I had a great time watching everyone's scenes.  When people finished their scene it seemed like they stayed backstage but I sat in the audience and watched the rest of the play and loved it.

This year has been a roller coaster with acting but one that I have thoroughly enjoyed.  I came into the class  late after having missed maybe the first two days of class so I had NO IDEA what to expect.  I kind of just went with the flow and hoped for the best.  And you know what, I'm so glad I stayed in the class!  It was such a new and exciting experience for me.  I can't wait to see what else I'll be able to explore in the theatre world later in life!
