Name: Petchy, Petch, you know, the usuals :D
Location: Either inside my own mind, or in the GMT time-zone
Acting: well.. It's a strange one..
I always wanted to be in those rubbish village shows that are now legendary when I was a titchy 5-year-old, but you just forget stuff like that when your young (lol) and then I joined ""stage school"" .. zzzzzzzzzzz ... It was good fun, I was taught the basics of how to sing, and "act" ish, but really it was not amazing. I stopped that when I went to my new school, and got singing lessons too. I worked on that one for a hefty long time and around a year in last August, I decided one day that I wanted to join a amature theatrer company. W00t and all :D
Then at around febuary time I was just *loving* it, and joined annother one, called CrashBangWollop, which was producing "Mr Cinders". Oh yes. Thanks to my singing and failureness at "proper" acting, I got a good principar part which had a "stand-out-solo" piece and a phwadge of lines and work (most of the second act, including three speaches X| )
After mr Cinders, the other group was producing "A Tribute to Andrew Lloyd Webber" and also, same group of people and same two week spread, "Pendragon". In tribute me and one of my best freinds were given solo and duet parts (Me as Joseph and her as Narrator) which gave us a total of Four epic songs + chorus and finale etc. We.were.extatic. Considering we were given principal parts and that we had only bren here for a year was AMAZING!
Pendragon on the other hand was less than so... LOL
About the same time as the real work for Tribdragon (see what I did there?!) I was "guarenteed" a part in the school's performance of.. Wait for it.. LES MISERABLES!!!!111 I was down for an audition faster than you could say "time management" and I was in! At the audition, I was aiming for the part of "Thenardier" because I thought that I could only to comedy and I wasn't that good at stage spotlightnessness...ness.
What did they do? Put me in for the draw of the three main male parts (ZOMGWRAI) and all-in-all I got MARIOUS! :D:D:D
It's killing me though! The full throttle of rehersals is about to start (4-6, unless on thursday when it's 3-6. [PM] I also live Half an hour away from school, so I won't be back till someimes 7, brilliant
I'm working on my Grade 6 singing If you were wondering
Yea, I have no life, I'm a full-time-techhie and simmer. Honest!
