theatre

[Palaslayer]

someone playing theatre here? i mean, srs theatre and has already performed a piece.

 

[~Void~]

I did a "serious" play once, I was a semi-main character. It was alright. I'm not a huge fan of acting, but people say I'm good at it.

 

[Palaslayer]

in school or in a theatre group?

I'd like to get into improve stuff, but not really acting. Perhaps if I ever get my lazy ass to university.

I was soldier #3 in Lewis and Clark.
I told people how an Indian shot an arrow into my ass.

 

[Palaslayer]

wow XD

 

[leet.firefox]

Either 4th or 5th grade. My teacher never let me play a part again. :\

 

[V.I]

I'm in a theatre company, what's up?

 

[Just_Spectating]

lol

i think everyone has been in a performance such as that in their elementary years, leet

 

[The_wand_mirror]

Actually i don't think i ever have...

 

[Palaslayer]

i acted in two pieces now. some normal characters. but with much text.

 

[leet.firefox]

I had plenty of text, but apparently I didn't emphasize the "I have a fucking arrow in my ass" line enough to impress the teacher.

I played a policeman in an improvised parody play for the Model European Parliament a few months ago.

 

[Palaslayer]

not bad.

I've been in 5 plays myself. All small productions at high school though.

Bang Bang You're Dead, I played a ghost (Matt) who was shot by main character and comes back to haunt him. It's a play about school shootings and it's very intense. My first and best play IMO. It was just strictly good even though we had a terrible student director.

11 Variations of Friar Johns Failure, Check Please, "Acid Trip" (don't remember the plays name because it was written by a student and it sucked), "Acid Trip, return of suckiness" (Another play written by a student and I'm still trying to forget them).

Then my second favorite play is called, "Cut". It's a play, within a play, within a play, with lots of funny twists.

Overall I would only recommend acting for those who are really interested in it. If you're not sure, don't try it because it's only interesting if there's a good director and everybody else is also interested in the production.

 

[Palaslayer]

you have to become a group. not some people who want to act in theatre.

First Grade : was a rock picking farmer with a couple of guys while others were singing >_<

 

[Billy the Cat]

I had a small role in a play at my primary school.
I played a badger that shouted at some hamsters that were asking for sex in a play during a love scene (yes a play in a play). I also had a small role as a barmanmarmot.

 

[Palaslayer]

lol.

 

[Billy the Cat]

lol.

Badger badger badger?
Do not think further with your Hivemind!

 

[Billy the Cat]

I would get a video of the play, but that never happened ç_ç
I want to see how my acting skills were by then even though I was afraid of bigger roles at first.

Cool thing is that on high school I once had to do an imitation of the famous scene from the Shining

'Here's Johny!'

Not that I had ever seen or heard of that movie by then (and I still need to see it ;D)

I'd love to be good at acting, but even more I would like to make films. We'll see...

 

[Palaslayer]

yes, making films might be more exciting than acting. but both are different.

acting is cool because you can bring a project to life with a group and people applaud afterwards :d

making a film has clearly the cooler result and you can work with more technic.

 

[Billy the Cat]

I was going the study Communication & Multimedia Design and designing movies was one of the things I would like to do, but I lack on some of the requirements. Another option would be game design

I like great movies, but am not interested in fame at all.
Another problem might be the Dutch film industry, which is very small.

Now where are all the others to post on this thread? I'd like to hear more
