Interdisciplinary post (ID)

This year I am taking a class about Theater. In this class, I am learning things I never knew before. I thought Theater was just about acting, but there is way more than that. Theater is about memorizing your part of a play/act. A antagonist is the bad main character. They provide the obstacle the protagonist tries to overcome. A protagonist is the main character whose success of failure the audience is most concerned. There are 3 different kinds of ways of how an actor can talk to each other or speak. A dialogue is a conversation between 2 or more actors in a play. A monologue is a long speech spoken by one actor without interruptions. A soliloquy is a speech given by a character alone on the stage where the audience gets  to know the inner thoughts and feelings of the character. Before the actors would perform they would all go to the Green Room. The Green Room is a room where all actors would stay and rehearse their part until they are up next to perform. There are so many new things I am learning in this class. I like this class because seeing actors makes me want to become an actor.

  1. There are a lot of parts to a single play! Have you been to a play or musical before? Are you planning to join a theatrical group?
