Musical Theater

Musical theater is a great hobby. I like it alot because it brings me out of my shell to be a more open person. I also like it because it is fun and you meet new people. My source is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musical_theatre. It says alot about musical theater like the basics of the fly system to the basics of blocking and acting on stage. I think it would be a great start to all the actors that are in this production to read through it adn see what they already know and don't know so they can see what they need to work on. It explains the way a fly system works by drawing out a few diagrams and links it to youtube for an instructional video. The fly sytem isn't an easy thing for everyone to learn to use. It takes a lot of strength. The explaination on blocking and acting on stage talks about how we are supposed to be moving or "cheating" on stage all the time, as well as staying in character. This stuff we all should already know since Mrs.Laura alwayas tells us this.
