ya know- it was pretty good. It was understudy night but still wasn't too bad. One of the soldier people had a horrible voice and his character su*ked but most of the cast was pretty good. After all, it was a HS production but I have to say it was well put together. The whole stage set and costumes were better than many college or mainstage performances. Honestly, I couldn't see older people (over high school age) playing these parts. I think the HS students were very mature for their age and perhaps thats what made it the way it was and didn't seem like a 'crappy HS play'
"No two shows are alike in the making. Each show is a living
piece of your life in a small unreal world with its own character
and integrity; its own new set of memorable experiences and
incredible happenings. You begin to love and adapt to its strangeness.
Dreams harden into substance. Values come into focus. You wish
it would never end. The dream world vanishes like mist before a
rising sun; part of you vanishes with it. And back you land in the
real world with a thud- fogged, uneasy, jittery, difficult to get
along with. There is only one cure. A new show. A new, small
unreal world; new visions, experiences, incredible happenings.
Again you love it, adapt to it, wish it would never end.
But end it does. Another part of you vanishes.
That's show business."-Anonymous
"The stage is where I live and come alive and act out all the things that go on in my life. It's not just what I do for a living, it's my shrink and my love affair. No one in my life has ever or ever will kiss me on the mouth like this lover called my relationship with my performance."
