Anyone ever been in a show?

[JeanValjean]

Just finished Fiddler on the Roof, and studying Performing Arts at college and starting a show after Christmas at college

 

[ZydrateDealer]

I was in "Little Shop of Horror's" as Orin Schrivello the mad dentist and first victim of the plant (a cookie to anyone who knows which actor played that in the movie version).


Steve Martin...I'll take that cookie now

I used to, but I'm a bit too much of an introvert to do it now. Plus, stage fright makes it hard to want to do it too often. Although, interestingly, the only time I don't get stage fright is when I'm in character. Well, at least, I don't get it as strongly as I usually do. That's one aspect of being a method, I guess.

I love performing, but it doesn't love me. I never had any problems as a kid (and I was a stage kid), but, really abruptly, after I started debating, I suddenly got stage fright, which kind of put a damper on theatrical ambitions.

For the last few years my school has been too small to really have any productions, but I intend to get back into performing once I get to Uni. I have done some performing through the internet though; voice acting and such. We'll see what happens.

I was in about 12 plays with my high school as either a techie or actor. We also had a school news show that aired on a local channel a lot, I was a reporter and the chief editor. I also preformed with our schools chamber choir quite a bit and got to debate another team in front of a large audience(100+ people attending).

As of now, I still do debate and some choir stuff. I would think of getting back into acting and tech work if I could find a theater in the are that was worth a damn.

 

[GrinningManiac]

played a piano solo of Glen Miller's "In The Mood" at a special School Variety Act

I was also a roadie

I've given a presentation on an expedition to Peru I partook in, and Nick Hewer (Sir Alan's Aide in The Apprentice) was in the front row

Also, me and my friends are practicing a Barbershop Quintet, and we may perform if we get good/confident enough

 

[mr man]

i was in a nativity play.

 

[Fenwolf2003]

Been in 3 shows, 1 short Talent show where I was 'Andy' from Little Britain. 1 Play where I was an exterminator in Black Books (a bigger role than it sounds) and then another play, the Goon Show, where I played...4 different characters. My favourite was the American Officer. I'm a pretty shy person iRL but it never effected me, auditioning to me was the hardest bit, when I got on stage I barely noticed anything going on around me, just focused on the play.

 

[Yokai]

I played Dogberry in Much Ado About nothing...when I was 13. Still, I was the only cast member to get a standing ovation, after my "I'm an Ass" rant. If you've read the play, you know the one.
I was also briefly interviewed at a rally in 2004, which I believe went on local news.

 

[vamp rocks]

I was singing infront of a few hundred people for school...and never done anything like that since...

haha i know how u feel... the seccond time i ever sang in front of people was in front of my entire school... i felt like i was about to collapse.

then again... the first time was the audition for les mis... so thats quite nerve racking as well.. lol

 

[revjay]

I've done camera and production work for television but being in front of the camera? Nope.

 

[PirateKing]

I've been in quite a few plays. Death and God(two Woody Allen plays), How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Jackie: An American Life and I'm in The Importance of Being Ernest where I play Chaucible.
I also do improv and a lot of short scenes.

 

[vamp rocks]

im surprised about the amount of ppl who have been on like... tv and such... haha

 

[Ocelot GT]

By show you mean play, production I guess.

Yuss, I was in

Swan Princess at Primary School

and

Pirates of Pensanz (sp) in high school as well as numerous small plays and productions for drama and a tooonnnnne of stuff for dance class.

 

[vamp rocks]

I don't have the balls to do drama.

ehh, i used to have terrible stage fright... like couldnt do public speaking or anything... trust me, you can overcome it.. haha

 

[Erja_Perttu]

I caught a glimpse of myself in the crowd on Bullet in a Bible, so I'm on a dvd somewhere.

And I used to sing in a special choir before I mysteriously lost the ability to sing. I've never figured out quite what happened there.

 

[similar.squirrel]

I once played the Mayor in the Pied Piper. And a Wise Man or two.

Ah, the joys of being 11 in a non-secular school.

 

[vamp rocks]

i know most of you probably dont care but im on a massive stage high so im gonna say it anyway!!

lol just did the last night of les Miserables!!! wooooo!!! hahah with no faults what so ever... was awesome!!!

haha.. thats all i wanted to say...

 

[Klepa]

Played a few shows, once in school graduation, and a few times in bars/clubs whatever you want to call them. Nothing major.

I've been in the news more times than I care to mention. The news reporters always somehow find me, and I'm too thick to realize they want to interview me for some paper, before it's too late.
Last year my face was all over the papers, because I just happened to turn my application in for the university, at the same exact moment when some news crew arrived, doing a report ._.

 

[Vault boy Eddie]

I played the disembodied voice of jesus in a high school play and I played Frida Kahlo's husband in a musem exhibit showcasing her work.

 

[kduff51]
