As Isaac Marion once said, “Every experience, good or bad, is a priceless collector’s item.” In life, I have experienced the highest of my highs and lowest of my lows. I have been bullied to the point where I could not leave my room. I have also been with a group of people where I could not speak a coherent sentence because we were laughing so much. Each experience has impacted me in some way, whether it was big or small, and has shaped me for the better or worse. Being Belle in the high school musical Beauty and the Beast was an experience that improved my organizational skills, changed how I approached a crowd, and changed how my peers saw me and how I saw myself. As a result of the musical, I have bettered my organizational skills. Since I was a child, I enjoyed organizing. While I grew older, my organization skills reflected my age. …show more content…
I could hear people whisper statements such as, “Wow, I didn’t know she could sing” or “We all know how she landed the part.” As my brother said, “You were a boring piece of glass, but you became a kaleidoscope.” Prior to the musical, I was like glass. A person could see right through me because I was one level. I was smart, and the majority of my class, athletic (SC 2). Before the musical, academics was the only activity that people recognized me by. I did do other activities besides academics, but only my closest friends knew that I could play the piano or draw. Just like my peers, my mother didn’t even know I could sing.
Consequently, the musical helped change how others saw me. Suddenly, people realized I was more than just a girl who had a 4.0 GPA. People who I had never talked to before knew my name. When I walked down the hall, I felt like a celebrity such as Angelina Jolie or Jennifer Lawrence, Natalie Portman or Julia Roberts, Emma Stone or Sandra Bullock because people would randomly call out to me to just a have a simple conversation (SC
In conclusion, I was able to express myself, relate to my peers, and make many memorable experiences. All of these things helped shape the person I am today. However, not all experiences were pleasant. During the sixth grade all state choir, a girl fell down and started having seizures. I did not know who she was; I had never met her. Nevertheless, I felt curiously concerned for her wellbeing. I will never forget that experience. After the incident, we had a closer
Her accolades showcase her talent for diverse types of performance, but she states that even the characters she was assigned in theatrical performances have seemed like extensions of herself rather than those who would require her to change her nature in order to portray. While she initially lamented the personality-based casting, it is clear that her approach to performance is exceedingly genuine. Even when she was cast as Gabriella Montez in NorthWood’s recent production of High School Musical—a fitting full circle end to her theatrical career—Sara valued the experience not for her own glory but for the opportunity to be a leader for NorthWood’s underclassmen. Her leadership was characterized primarily by her effort to get to know every single one of her diverse cast mates. Sara found identity in performance and appreciated the ability to serve others through performing, and she certainly hopes that future students enjoy the same
Being a part of that group gave me the opportunity to challenge myself with more difficult music, and the greater the vocal obstacle, the more I thrived. My choir teacher, Ms. Tippett, took notice of my passion for music and urged me to pursue it further. She pushed me to audition for choral festivals, urged me to try out for the school musical, gave me new responsibilities within the choir, and always knew I could accomplish whatever task she handed me. She nurtured my unending love of all things music and made me see that I really could do this, I could really follow music for the rest of my life. Music shaped me into the confident young woman I am today, and I can’t even begin to imagine how miserable my life would be if I pushed it to the sidelines.
In high school, I was very involved with the school’s musical theatre program. I loved to act and sing, and I was pretty good at both, but I never got a part better than being in the ensemble. This was because I was not part of the “privileged” group of students.
Belle’s distinct personality traits help her see the greatness in the Beast that lead to him becoming the man he always secretly was. Belle during this film can be seen as the kindest person in
On November 5, 2016, the opening night of Beauty and the Beast for the gold cast performed on the vibrant stage of the Performing Arts Center in Cookeville. Under the direction and choreography of Jennifer Welch, the Children’s Theatre of Cookeville took on a Disney classic originally directed by the Tony-Nominated Robert Jess Roth. Filled with excitement due to the fact I knew many of the actors and actresses, I was throughly impressed from the acting, costumes, and set design just to name a few. This visual work of art, left not just people devoted to the “tale as old as time” casually humming show tunes as they left the theatre.
People loved my music so much; they would make speeches about me and even makes biographies and talk about my life. During the 1700s and the 1800s, musicians were considered servants and useless. (3) Because of me and other great musicians such as Mozart, musicians are very valuable and well-known. When I was deaf I knew my life wasn't going to last, so I made as much music as I possibly could to ensure great success. It worked about perfectly and I was very happy. I wrote a good amount of music in my life and a great amount of music when I was deaf. Music was the number one priority for me and I loved making it. I inspired so many people to play music and would like other people to inspire people to play music
Beauty and the Beast earned the title of my first musical infatuation. The dazzling colors and Broadway-worthy numbers captured my five-year-old brain subconsciously transforming my perspective. Unlike other Disney Princesses, Belle was a nerd! She went to the library every day and possessed an ardent curiosity for knowledge similar to my own. Belle’s character motivated my
Just like before, everything was strange to me, but only I concerned about my ambition. I never took music classes before but in high school as a freshman which fascinated me. The class was tough for me at my first time, and other classmates would make fun of me. I never mind it but take them as a thrust to my curiosity for music. After all, I composed a song and learned to play piano better than anyone in the class at the end of the semester. My songs were my feeling that I jotted down on the dairy. At the end of the semester, I sang a song and everyone applause with a grin. After that, my dairy turned to many songs over the high school years. Whatsoever, I sang a song too on the graduation day where everyone cheered for me and realized that I wasn’t the different one there, but they
Being the embodiment of the average introvert hardly lessened the pressure of becoming successful. Growing up in a household, where I would be the first generation in my family to attend college brought challenges of their own. It was not until freshman year of college that I realized how problematic my shyness and introversion would be. At Monmouth University, I was fortunate enough to be accepted in the Educational Opportunity Fund (EOF) program along with 39 other students. After the program had ended, I realized my reclusive personality came with a high price. During the concluding ceremony, the student participants were recognized for their hard work and accomplishments. When my name was called, I heard someone whisper, “Who?” “I don’t know,” another student murmured back. It did not occur to me that these students whom I shared the summer with had no idea who I was. That night, I kept reliving what those students said in my head. My refusal to publicly participate had limited my visibility to peers, and had exposed my restricted social abilities.
Music has been an integral part of my life since I was young. Being in church choir from the age of 6 has allowed me to grow as a singer in many aspects. As a child, I couldn’t wait to get to music class in school, then zip down to the church for choir practice every Wednesday night. As I grew so did my love for music. I soon became best friends with the son of our high school choir director. Music became a substantial part of our relationship. Through high school I started to realize that music was going to be what I did with my life.
Belle is an ordinary girl from a small town who then becomes a princess in the Disney movie Beauty and the Beast, although we have different lifestyles, we also have similarities; we both are caring and love our fathers. In the beginning of the movie, Belle is shown as a very humble girl who lives in a small town with her father. Belle is always kind to the townspeople even though she seems odd to them. Belles father Maurice is also different from the rest, he likes to create inventions which makes him odd to the rest of the townspeople. Despite the rude comments the townspeople make about her father, Belle loves him unconditionally and cares about him. Belles caring personality separates her from the rest of the arrogant young girls from her town. Like Belle, I like to care a lot about my father. My father is the most important person in my life, he is my role model. He may not be the most perfect father in the world, but to me he is the best I could
The actors of beauty and the beast Sam Hartley (Beast) and Brooke Quintana(Belle) are my best caters among all actors in this musical theater. They are playing very well to narrow their life style different close to relationship. Belle could be a good model of example foe most young girl to be wise when to attract someone and by someone during their love time. The lucky and the bold lover Mr. Beast was playing a good character's how to be honest,committed,patient, and trust for someone to make yours in a relationship way easily. In conclusion, Beauty and the Beast one of my first and best musical theater that I enjoyed at the At and t Wins-pear opera house. As the old time history of tale of French. However, the message still give more pleasant for this generation as a best musical theater of the year. In contrast,because of my back seat of the top of the stage some of characters speech does not clear to understood what was their main point of their ideas. Overall, I m happy to have an opportunity watching this kind of play by the invitation of my Humanities 1315 professor Jacqueline Smith of class 2016. Thank you
On a dark and cold night I went to the Orpheum theatre. For my evaluation I went to go see The Disney Beauty and The Beast on the 16th of September. The performance dates were at 7:30 p.m. for the 15, 16, 18, 22, and 23 and also at 2:30 p.m. on the 17, and the 24 of September. The play which was produced by Magic Valley Repertory Theatre is a musical. The playwright for this play was Linda Woolverton, and Larry Johnson was the one who produced the whole show or the director. Some of my favorite actors/actresses were Uriah Manning who played the character of Gaston, Lydia Christensen which was the first silly girl, and then Amanda Hall who was Belle. The reason I really liked these three actors was because the actress Amanda Hall which played Belle had a very beautiful voice, which she portrayed very wonderfully, and she was also always very distinctive and clear when saying her lines. The first silly girl was very funny and she showed lots of emotion, more than the other two silly girls, and she was the most entertaining actress when she said her lines. With Gaston he was very good at his part and he played the part of gaston very well. The biggest reason of this production was ultimately to recreated Beauty and the Beast, just from the movie to a live production.
My life has been a crazy roller coaster with many events that have affected my life all in different ways. There have been times where my life has been at its highest peak in the world then it falls down, right into a deep valley. From the time my lovable younger sister came into my life to when my grandpa had a near death experience, I have learned many valuable lessons through the rough times as well as the more happy times. When I was a young girl, my mom had always told me the same thing over and over again. I never really thought about how a few words would have a deep effect on me in a short amount of time.
