Method acting

In November of 2016, I saw the play All in the Timing put on by the Wachusett Theatre Company.The play is comprised of a series of short skits, none having to do with next one. Some skits having to do with different time streams, washing machines, or monkeys, the play was very entertaining. The problem with plays that don’t have a cohesive plot is the transition from one skit to the next. But with the organization of the skits and well timed blackouts the transitions were seamless. One thing I…

the play being introduced. Although there were many things in the play that caught my interest, the elements that were most crucial to the play was the set design and the acting. I think even though there were only 3 actors throughout the play and there wasn’t any big landscape changes, the play was entertaining and the acting was believable and well-done. I also believe that the setting of the play was an interesting choice because the only thing on the stage in one of the scenes was 1 white…

Junot Diaz said that dismissing any opportunity for a person to be culturally represented turns them into a “monster” (goodreads.com). So, how does that apply to the media, specifically, Hollywood film? Recently there has been a growing outcry over the lack of complex minority experiences in award-winning films.

While there were many great movies to choose from based off of the trailers presented, the movie that I would want to see the most would be John Wick 2. John Wick 2 caught my attention the most simply because I have already seen the first John Wick, the action in the movie is amazing, and Keanu Reeves is one of my favorite actors. The first John Wick was indeed a great action movie, so you would think the second movie would be worthy of wanting to see as well. The actors in the first movie…

moved by your actions and person. My real start to acting came a little later than I hoped, it wasn't until 2010 when I realized I really wanted to act, I remember the day so clearly; I was downstairs doing some of my “grade 6 school work” when my mom called me upstairs to show me an ad in the paper for munchkin auditions for The Wizard of Oz at Theatre Ancaster. I was ecstatic when I saw this, I have always had a passion for theatre, drama, and acting in general; but, unfortunately I…

Acting is one of the most prominent forms of art, it is undoubtedly creative and it takes an unfound amount skill. These impressive displays are used in a variety of forms, though, not in all cases for entertainment. In Richard Wright’s own memoir, “Black Boy”, performance is not used to please a common crowd of onlookers. On the contrary, Richard must use acting to physically and socially survive in a racist world. Richard grows up in the American South, where he is constantly told what to do…

My determination turns to fire, so it can feed the passions of my soul. A Multitude of people have categories in life that they are skillful at, but only have one category they are passionate about, for me that’s acting. In acting you can be anything, travel anywhere, and fabricate emotions with the audience that they have never felt before. It is something I have loved for a longtime. When I was seven years I would look at every job and say, "I wanna do that when I grow up!" In time my mother…
