The Philadelphia Story

I Love Drama Club wooo! ok so lets see where to begin... Tryouts were after school in our speech room with the Jani Clan. I went with my friend tried out in different parts for the play my friend got the small part of May who is a maid in the Lord's House. I however got the most magnificent part that all the girls wanted!! Maid #5... I had a total of six lines for of which everyone else had to say at the same time. These of which were "Yes Mrs. Thomas." "Yes Mam." "More Presents." "What?" "NO!!" My two lines were "Enough presents to open up a store." and "It's a stuffed fish!" Then I helped change the scenes for act two and three along with the other maids and butlers. I learned all my lines and blocking in one night of practice. And then there was hell week! Dun dun dun! Monday-Tuesday is mandatory practices. I missed one but I stayed in the play. Then Thursday-Sunday Show time! 8 O'clock every night and at 2 on Sunday. The play was a success!! Everyone had fun during the "fight scene" Pat got a bloody nose on stage and the next night, Nate and Mike knocked over a porceline jug full of orange juice and it broke. So geuss who got to clean it all up? Yep thats right the maids did during scene change. other than that the entire play went smoothly and we had alot of fun.
