I joined Stage1 because my friends went there and they liked it and I like acting. I was shy at first but then I got more confident and had more fun! I then heard about Spoonface Steinberg in Stage2. I auditioned and I got a part. I made even more friends and I got a buddy whom I could ask anything and I also got a Mentor buddy who helped me and I could ask him anything too. Mentors really help and come and speak to you. The number 1 rule of Stage2 is: “ Nobody is ever left out”. You perform in front of lots of people but Stage2 stops that from getting scary. I was a fairy in A Midsummer Night's Dream. I wondered how chorus would be. It's just as fun but you don't get lines. It may have been a Shakespeare performed by 7-21 year olds but all the audience I know said that it was brilliant! A very good thing in Stage2 is that you mix the age groups and I know a lot of older members. I was in the BDTG performance – it was like a camp for a week but in the end you perform. We did perform at the LAMDA evening too. I thought LAMDA looked fun so I did LAMDA one term. I was Fat Sam, which was nice. You don't only act your piece but you learn other stuff like about Uta Hagen. I got Distinction. I then auditioned for Twelfth Night and got to be Fabian. Another Shakespeare, but believe me the blocking is fun so far. I have also joined the Marketing Committee to get more involved. Stage 2 is very good. You don't have to know how to act; you just have to know how to have fun! |
