Review of Written musical

Last Wednesday, I went to go see the musical, “Foot Loose.”  I really enjoyed this play for many reasons.  I thought it was not boring and it got very live when the rap music was bumping in the background which made it different than all the other plays I have seen.  I thought the people performing did an excellent job.  Toni, was very good at his part with the singing.  I was surprised he sang that much and have never really seen a guy sing in a musical besides broadway.  At first I thought the story was hard to understand with all the singing, dancing, and loud background music but then it made sense when they talked about the 5 people that died.  These 5 people died by listening to too loud of music which was a distraction and therefor the town banned loud music and dancing.  They then met up as a town and decided weather or not third should be banned or not but Toni did not want this to stop his dancing and music career.  I also wasn’t sure what he was trying to do with the Reverends daughter but then caught on to the fact that he actually like her in the end.  The   Reverend was already giving Toni a hard time about dancing to loud music but still liked his daughter.  I thought the dancing was very good by everyone and must have taken a lot of practice and time to prepare for the scenes.  I thought everything went well all together with the singing, dancing, and preparing all the members in the cast for this performance.  I was very surprised how many students participated in the act.  Overall, I thought the performance was great.

Self Evalution

I thought my performance and write up about my performance was alright.  I think like Cassidy washing to not right so much "fluff."  I really just wrote all this fluff to fill up word space and really want the IB people who are grading my essay to know what I did to be here today.  I also think I should try and talk less about every single thing I did to prepare myself for the act.  I want to add more about the performance and not as much about the literary analysis.  In my write up I wrote a lot about the literary analysis instead of the performance.  I feel that I do need some fluff or else there will be a bit of confusion about whats going on.  I should edit more of the literary analysis though and compare more Tom's emotion in the play to my performance.  I could also probably talk a little bit about Grace and I working together to fill up some space.  My biggest issue is the words and getting to 2000 words.  I feel it will be hard t...

Oral Presentation Practice:

#1.)  When I read the chapters, “The Wall of Fire Rising” and “Night Women” in the book Krik Krak by Edwinge Danticat, these two stories seemed to be the most eye catching to me.  When I say eye catching, they seemed different that all the other stories because most of these stories talked about the Hatian Culture and how everyone was fleeing the country because of the Macouts.  The Government was in full control of the Haitian people.  I thought these two chapters had a connection because they both have a mother and son but no father.  I thought this would make a good piece in our created performance cause we could see what both sides looked like in both stories.  In both chapters, Little Guy and Night Womens son were going through a tough time because Little Guy just lost his father and Night womens a prostetute.  After all, it seemed like the performance worked out by putting Lily as Night Women and Little Guy as Night Women's son.  It was a ve...
