THEATER!!!! 

I LOVE theater!!! I have seen many musicals (plus my FAV HAMILTON!!!) and I take Drama classes at school. Also, last year I auditioned for my first musical, but i didn't get in. (cue sad violin music)We are friends with one of the directors, and she said I was the last one to be cut, plus, there were a bunch of older 9th graders auditioning, so younger kids (like me) got cut. Godd news is though, I signed up for Tech, so instead I did costumes, props, stagehand etc. Being backstage was SO fun! There is something mystical about sitting backstage reading a script with a flashlight, waiting for cue9s to bring in a prop. Plus, one of the plays was Willy Wonka, so I got to roll the grandparent's bed in and out. The bed was a wooden frame on wheels with two boards nailed on either side with a gap in the middle so the "grandparents" could sit on the platforms with their legs dangling in the middle, and then they were covered with blankets so it looked like they were lying down. It was so cool! And we had to roll the entire bed,in and out on every scene change,  with the 4 actors still on it! It was definitely my favorite part. So excited to audition next year!

Just look at my name... theater is my life! I absolutely love theater, but I've never been backstage. It sounds fun though! That's a cool bed you were describing. Hamilton is AMAZING.

When I signed up for Tech, I didn't think it would be that fun, but being backstage is amazing! I would definitely reccomend it. Plus, you get to watch the show for free! (from a limited view, haha)
