I am a kid who enjoys being creative and making other things for people to see and judge. In the future i can see myself still enjoying to display my creativity, and not really care about what others have to say. I just wanted to explore new things I guess when i thought of this class.

1. Who is more important... the playwright or the cast and crew? Defend your assertion with your logic and some examples. 2. Also, how did your first performance in class go? What did it feel like before, during, and after?

The playwright is more important in my opinion solely because of the fact that they actually produce the material. Cast and Crew members only further expand upon said material.

**Forgot about Question 2 lol.

I think that my performance went well. I sincerely think that my whole group did a really good job with what we had created. :)

1) How did you begin? Did you brainstorm, get struck by a spark of imagination, or begin with by recounting a personal story, etc?
2) Has thinking about objective and tactics aided in your writing of an interesting story? Give an example of a tactic your character is using...
3) What theatrical genre would you call your monologue at this point and why?

1.) I started by just envisioning my favorite show ( The Trailer Park Boys) and thinking about a story that would fit the shows humor. I also added a bit of my own humor into it too.
2.) The tactics have helped me flesh out my monologue a little bit, but i think just free thinking has gotten me farther.
3.) I would call my monologue a comedic one. It has undertones of a little bit of satire, but it mostly just involves humor.

Consider your monologue... Give a synopsis of your story and the character you're going to portray. What are you doing to prepare yourself for the performance? How might you bring physicality to your character?

My story summarized is about a group of three guys who commit petty crimes to make it by. One of them (Bubbles) wants out, he wants an honest job that he can be proud of. So he is trying to convince his friends to join him.

Im just going to try and act like how bubbles would in an episode for my performance.

Reflect on your monologue performance. What it like in preparation and anticipation? What was your experience during the delivery of your monologue? What parts do you feel went really well. What parts so you know you'd want to improve upon? Also, what was it like being an audience for your peer's monologues?

I feel like i did pretty good performing my monologue. I didn't really stop in my tracks much, although I did stumble over my words every once in a while. I want to improve on moving my body more while im in front of that many people. Since i feel like thats one of my performing shortcomings.

Describe the beginning concept for your set design. What elements of your inspiration collage did you draw upon? What is the basic stage scene you're setting in your design? Is there a strong design concept yet it regard to style, form, texture, color, etc.?

The concept that I had visualized for my set was one of a very odd nature. I didn't want it to be something that you can understand, instead something that people can interpret for themselves. My collage was also very odd, so I guess that was my theme for my overall design.

An aHa moment that I had during that conference was that there are a lot more positions in the theater world than I had thought before.
