The story seemed to be very well thought of, The dancers all was very good. The timing, the way they dressed, and the way that it is put was very well thought of as well. Anybody should watch it they would enjoy it, but it may be a little bit confusing but it still works
There are 25 members in Buzz Dance Theatre; 2 actors, 6 dancers, numerous directors, a lighting designer, artistic director, sound designer, composer, playwright and managers. The lighting and sound designers aim to create a dramatic and interesting performance, and aid in the presentation of the choreography and message. Lights can be used to create atmosphere during a performance; it can symbolise lightning or sunlight, can be used to express emotions within the dancer, or can be used along with music and sound to surprise the audience. The artistic director creates and choreographs movements for the dancers to perform. He/she uses the choreography to portray a
This did play into the intensity and mood of each scene, allowing the audience to not understand the emotions existing between each individual but to fully feel and experience that emotion. So due to this small blemish it at times caused a domino affect that caused the structure of the production to crumble upon itself. Overall 110 in the Shade was an exceptional musical. I believe Mr. William Bradford, the director of this production, maintained the homey and simplistic nature of this production and instilled that characteristic within the foundation of the play. But I believe it was enhanced by the carefully selected cast, that were more than capable of fulfilling each of their individual roles and submitting their character to the ‘grand scheme’ of things.
It flowed perfectly between lines. I didn’t notice once him messing up his lines or anything. If so, he must have hid it very well from the audience because there was no commotion there except for the fact of his hilarious acting. My number one compliment for him vocally would be the way his voice and character fit perfectly. His skittish voice on certain acts
This further added to the effectiveness of the set. The projection was intense and powerful. There was not a place in the theatre that you could not understand what was being said. The final bows brought everyone to their feet in an uproar of praises and applause. If I had the money, I would travel across the country to watch it again in another theatre because of how powerful the show was.
The bar within La Boheme is easily accessible and those who work behind it are both talented and have a great attitude and passion for what they do. Those who choose to preform in Cabaret live not only are outstanding performers but give it their all when on stage, which just adds to the over all feel of the night. Cablive and La Boheme have many strengths and very few weaknesses. One factor that I did to find to be of poor quality was the readily available seating and space for people to sit. On frequent occasions, more chairs were needed to be found for people to sit down, and even then little room was available for them.
Supporting notes Section 1 The practitioner that our group has chosen to use was the theatre company Kneehigh. Based in Cornwall, they use many specific features in order to tell a story to the audience and they gain their inspiration from Cornish myths, legends and fairy tales such as Hansel and Gretel, Cinderella, etc. Kneehigh have a venue called The Asylum, a tent that can be configured in 5 ways and pitched in 1 day on any surface allowing them to perform on sight specific locations such as cliff tops, the Eden project, Restormel Castle. The main recurring elements in most kneehigh productions are: using the body to symbolise objects which could be seen as props and setting e.g. lamps, televisions, furniture etc.
There were powerfully delivered performances by the Morgan State University Choir, the Morgan State University Dance Ensemble, and Theatre Morgan that portrayed significant messages through art. It began with a welcoming address from the Coordinator for General Education
This one in particular was my favorite because of the catchy tune and the lyrical significance. I found the satirical overtone of the whole tune to really signify the problems in the past and often current society. As well, the song was one of those melodies that sticks in your head all day, but not the annoying kind. This kept the tune ‘catchy’ and helped the audience effectively pay attention to the message. The song talks about how the actors have hit it big time on Broadway with their performance of “Pretty Lady”.
It also develops along the lines of mutual understanding, or empathy, for the audience and the performer, as she recounts her seven stages, as they are able to understand the common pathos shared in each stage. The use of dramatic symbols in Indigenous Australian theatre conveys a sense of metaphoric comparison between that of the Aboriginal world and that of the “white” culture. The Seven Stages of Grieving incorporates imagery into the main subtext of its performance, in order to create a “faction” surrounding the main themes of loss and grieving. The Seven Stages of Grieving focuses on the perspective of an Indigenous Australian, rather than a wholistic approach using both traditional Aboriginal symbolism and abstract metaphoric symbolism. Each of these types of symbolism allows the audience to understand the significance of Indigenous culture from both a modern and a traditional aspect, as well as the historical concepts behind it, that stemmed from “white” culture.
