Hello. My name is Anthony and I am 12 years old. This is my BroadwayWorld account. I don't want to be the "little kid". Theatre is really my life. I love this so much and I hope to be on the stage when I grow up. Please do not be snarky. I really am into this and this means a lot to me. I would like to be part of discussions and everyhting on this website.

Look, I want people to be honest and this is serious. I do not see why this should not end well. I am very mature for my age and I hope to be a frequent on this website.

I was thinking the same thing ljay.

1. Don't have a light directly behind your head -- we can't even see you.

Trust us kid, I'd take this down from this site....people are going to be pretty snarky.

Join in the discussions, certainly.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

What video was taken down? I think I need to see this.

It was just me introducing myself and my playbills. You can find it on YouTube under the same name of this thread.

This probably wasn't the best thread to start. Since your 12 (if this a real account), this is probably one of your first times on the message boards. I'm a relatively new member here and by no means a theatre expert (at least not yet), but I post questions and answer other questions/join in the discussion when I can.

So...stop commenting on this thread and if you're interested join in the discussion.

What other screen names do you use here?

Think about this: why are you introducing us to your playbills? What does this "do"?

We love that at your young age you have a passion for theater and have been lucky enough to feed that passion on Bway. However, some folks here love to tear down raw optimism.

To continue the advice: ask a question or offer an opinion on an existing thread. Let us get to know you through your thoughts, not your list. That way, you get to know the folks here as well....and you'll have a better idea if you even want to hang around. While everyone here loves theater, we don't love everything and we aren't afraid to to give brutal and honest opinions.

(However, BroadwaySpace.com also has discussion boards and the members there are very young as well -- you might find more kindred spirits there.)

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Bwaykid- welcome.

It is a joy to see such passion and experience seeing shows at such a young age.
Avoid the nasty buzzards on this board...and you should be okay.

It's nice to see a 12 year old on these forums - shows that kids your age do care about musical theatre - but expect snark.

He knows enough to know YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN was a piece of shlt. But not enough yet to know that 13 was, as well. You're off to a good start, kid!

Well Jordan some parts of 13 were okay but it was not like Young Frankenstein. Young Frankenstein was pure torture. Thank you everyone for the advice and I hope to see you guys on the message boards again.

I remember when Young Frankenstein previews started and people on here who saw it tried REALLY hard to like it.

Yeah, you probably would have been better off not admitting your age on here, but hey- welcome! I hope you'll be able to contribute as articulately as (if not more so than) some others on this board!
Enjoy, and be careful around these parts! People like to rip little boys to shreds here!

I am truly happy that people your age love theater so much.

His age would become evident when he discusses his fondness for 13 and that sort of crap.
