Any Non-Singers/Dancers/Actors?

Posted: 7/24/04 at 11:06pm

It seems everyone here is a singer, dancer and/or actor? Is there anyone here who can't act, can't dance and/or cannot sing? And has never been in a musical or play? I would like to do all of those things, but I fit into the category of the person who cannot do any of those. The only musical thing I have done is take piano for 7 years and still counting.

I wish I could play piano.
Good ballet company class/rehearsal pianists are hard to come by!

I can't sing...I wish I could...REALLY wish I could.

I can dance well enough though, I've been in 5 high school musicals. I love reading lines, I've just never had the chance, as all the shows I've done were musicals and all the speaking roles went to people who could sing Being in the ensemble gets monotonous after awhile, lol.

I can't sing, dance or act to save my life. I'm just a happy little observer!

yay for the techies!! I actually sing/act - and used to dance. But last year for my senior year of HS i decided to do behind the scenes stuff. Costumes all the way! Found out from my teacher that all our costumes that we made were recently rented out to another theatre company! We made them all ourselves. No teachers helped us. it was about 8 girls - we worked our butts off.

I can carry a tune, but I'm not a professional or anything. I'm just an avid theatregoer.

I'm a straight play actress, my singing voice is definitely something that people do NOT want to pay to hear.

Well, I do dance around sometimes, but it is mostly joking around...should I just call it jumping around?

I sing in a community chorus, and that's it. I was once in a highschool play years ago---picked, I think, because I was one of the only ones who could be heard past the footlighs (no microphones in that school in them thar days.

I can't sing, dance or act either - which is probably why I admire people who can.

I can sing, but quit doing it in any organized form 4 years ago. I never acted. I play viola and piano, though. And though I took dance lessons as a small child, nowadays I move about as well as a narcoleptic walrus.

I don't act, sing, dance, or work tech.

The only stages I have ever set foot on were my old college's (when I was taking a scenic painting class), a local regional theatre's (when I was doing some graphic design work for them), and the Curran Theatre when I got a backstage tour.

I am almost completely tone-deaf and dance like a damn chair in a blender.

Thus, my enjoyment comes from watching those who can do what I cannot.

if I'm going out for a comedy my resume says
actor/singer/moves ADEQUATELY... and only when it's essential to the plot.
