Life Of An Actress

For Bugsy Malone I am playing a paper girl as well as a dancing girl. Which means that I have to play two very different charters. I start off as a dancing girl during Fat Sam's Grand Slam and then run back on as a paper girl two seconds later unfortunately. I love the dance that I am doing and am gland to have a few solo lines as the papergirl. I also love watching the boxing scene because it so full of energy. I am looking forward performing this at the end of it!

Mary the Papergirl

For Passion Projects 2018 I am doing Musical Theatre we are doing Bugsy Malone. I am playing a papergirl. To get into character we had to think about who they are. I chose the name Mary because it popular in the 1920's. She is 13, coming from a poor family Mary started work at 7, she recently got a job as a papergirl pretending to be a boy. She is anxious to be able to get enough money to keep her family alive. Also here a link to a website of the basic history of paperboys.

Practice, Practice, Practice

It's been a long day. Our performance is in three days it's so exiting. Today we went through our whole performance, it's looking amazing. Here are a few photos of our practice. I also have been doing a little work on my zebra walk which is a lot of fun!

Here is the closing number of Circle of Life, King Simba welcomed home.

Characters and Dance

Today I had started to get my costume together. I am a zebra, and so I get a awesome head to wear. It's a bit big but it's an easy fix. After that we practiced the closing number of The Circle of Life. It's a lot of fun because we get to jump around because we are excited that the king is back! At the end we all get to bow. I can not wait until we do it in front of a crowd.

Circle Of Life

Today we have had a big day, first we had our warm ups to make sure we don't hurt ourselves. We are learning the moves for Circle of Life. It is the opening number, where we welcome our new king Simba. It's been a lot of fun. We need to work on our timing a little. It's look cool but is very simple.

Here are a few photos of it.

Lines and Dance Moves

Today we had a big day, first we did a few dance warm up and we practiced Hanuka Matata as well as a few voice warm ups. Later we all practiced singing Hanuka Matata, Circle of Life and I can't wait to be king. Lastly we found out who we where playing, and everyone practiced there lines. I hope I do okay, I am not sure of who I am exactly.
