It's a Bird, It's a Plane, It's Superman!


That was interesting. By interesting I don't mean ahh it was alright I didn't fall asleep, I mean that listening to each of the professors today describe their part in creating Superman was absolutely intriguing. It's refreshing to hear that all the things that we are learning about actually lead to something. No lie, I was feeling a little discouraged before. I wasn't sure that I actually liked taking part in theatre. I had almost made up in my mind that I would just enjoy theatre from the audience because that is where I started, and perhaps where I'll end.

The primary reason that I started theatre was because of my overwhelming shyness. Oh yes, remember the one girl in your middle and high school classes who couldn't talk in class, or give a presentation that was audible above a whisper...yep that was me. I still struggle with my lovely shynesssss, but hopefully it's gotten a lot better. This is why I have an interest in theatre. The ability to take who you are, and with confidence bring out that person into a character is amazing. However I'm not sure that I'm really into all of the design principles. I've been thinking about it, but I don't feel any better about any of it.

Randomnessss:
- Gary was cool. I want to fly like Superman. And what is Truth, Justice, and the American Way anyway?
- Color makes me happy. I think I will like this show.
- Toys? I hope that this show is entertaining. Sounds like I should bring my little brother :)
- Women in the 60's...not being able to move the way they want...Ahhhhh!
- The light man seems all-powerful. (sorry I didn't catch his name)
- Once again they stressed the importance of Collaboration. Always fun.
