Last Week

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rent_(musical) is the best resource I could find. But still is a great resource. Because it shows vital information you need for certain things.
Rent was hysterical! It had me laughing most of the time. I thought it was fantastic. But it did reflect upon very real topics like Drug abuse, Disease, and um "Relationships".
The one Theatrical that appeals most of us is being an actor and I even found a little movie that goes along with it! http://library.thinkquest.org/21722/qt_actor.html

Week 4 Days 1,2, and 3

I think the past two shows have elements of theatre in them, and we have about the same amount of elements in our show. But there are a couple of things we could use work on like timing, costumes, and such. If any elements were missing it would most likely screw everything up.
I found a great resource that shows how make-up is a major role in Suessical at http://www.the-index.org/cgi-bin/story.php?story=1023seussical, it says that the bright and wonderful colors made the show very beautiful looking. I think make-up would be a powerful role for the brides because they want to look good for the Matchmaker.
My costume so far in the show is pretty wild! I think it goes perfectly fine for my character. Well, I think that not just the way you act like the character is important but your look as well.

Week Three Day 1

I think technical theatre is hard work but pays off because, when your finished you have made awesome looking props and sets. Um I'm not sure if I'd like to learn more about tech theatre, but I think its still pretty cool.

Stomp

I thought Stomp was a pretty cool show. My favorite thing in the show was the part when they had the inner-tubes. I don't really have a least favorite so I like the whole show! Um I'm not sure if I saw any elements from Greek or Kabuki theatre though. I learned that not only your voice reflects your characters personality but your actions.

Mulan Jr. week 2 Day 2

I found the perfect resource site for Greek Theatre at http://www.theatrehistory.com/ancient/greek.html! At this site it shows different categories on what type of shows and descriptions. Well I think Kabuki Theatre reffered mostly on folklore and myths in their shows while Greek Theatre usually to Gods and comedy. I think Kabuki Theatre would be more fascinating than Greek, because it's foreign.

Mulan Jr. week 2 Day 5

I found this awesome resoure on Kabuki theatre at http://www.artelino.com/articles/kabuki_theater.asp.
It shows about its origin and what things they do at a Kubaki Theatre. I guess it would be fun to attend Kabuki theatre because you do lots of different things then our type of theatre.

Mulan Jr. Day 3

I found a nice article about Mulan at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hua_Mulan.
I go to Wikipedia for normal kinds of reports for school or just for a good resource.
You can find images on your topic, its history, and where it originated. All for now peeps this is Evan signing of in 3...2...1.
