Millie's Marvelous Theater Thoughts

  My tradition is Pantomime. I picked this tradition because it is something I have heard about many times in my life but never truly knew its explanation. So I decided to learn and absorb the information about pantomime that I lacked in my life. I picked the convention of mime, which is the slapstick comedy routine.

The comedy in this is in a lot of my childhood and is also something I would do in real life. I wanted to bring my life into my moment, and this is the way to do that.

  This experience was so fun. I like how we did everything in bits. Separating each element of theater makes adding them together more powerful. The dance we did was so different and interesting. The movement that they do half across the world was being taught right here in our school. Then talking about the text's meaning in theater brought me to realize how important the tone and expression of the text can change so much. For that exercise, we read a script about an object in life and its point of view. We choose one of the paragraphs from the script and Jackson and I created our own scene. We used Remote and made our scene tense by having the two of us stare at each other while sitting and having minimal movement without a set and expressing how so little can be so much.
