Thanks for bumping this thread, Dot - I didn't know it existed!
I'm very active in my school's drama club. So far, I've been in ten plays - number eleven starts up in the next couple of weeks.
I'm in the middle of our school's fall show. It's different from anything we've done previously because it basically is a bunch of small skits and improvisation games. I'm on the improv troupe. I have to admit, I was nervous because I've never done anything like this before. But I know everyone else on the troupe so well by now! We're all really close, and we have a blast getting up on stage and making complete fools of ourselves! And it's neat because every show is different. If you've never done improv before, I'd definitely recommend giving it a try!
This is the last weekend of that show, but we're also having auditions for our spring show! We always do musicals in the spring, and this time around is a show called The Mystery of Edwin Drood. It's based off the last book Charles Dickens wrote, but he died before he could write the ending. In the musical, the audience gets to vote on the ending. I'm really hoping to get a good part!
Which reminds me - I should really be looking over the songs we need to learn for auditions...
