My Theatre Story
Soooooooooooo, it all begins when lil Vanessa was in kindergarten. I remember seeing the 2nd and 3rd grades up on stage receiving all the attention and having the time of their lives. Obviously, lil Vaness needed to be apart of that, so she asked Ms. Baker if she could be apart of the shows. Unfortunately, only 2nd grade and up could be in the shows, so lil Vanessa watched with envy in her heart as the older kids performed plays like "Annie", and "Into The Woods" for the next two years.

After a loooooooooooong two years, Slightly Larger Vanessa was finally able to audition for, Peter Pan, her first show ever. She sang Twinkle Twinkle Little Star as her audition song, because as you can imagine, Slightly Larger Vanessa didn't know any other songs (except for The ABC's- but that wasn't an option because Slightly Larger Vanessa was not a baby).
Soon after, Slightly Larger Vanessa was cast as Tinkerbell in Sawyer Road Elementary's "Peter Pan Jr.", and the rest is history... |
For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us

... ACTUALLY its really not. I stopped doing theatre in middle school (and coincidentally they were the worst years ever) in order to learn more about visual arts, because as we all know, theatre is very time consuming. I made my way back into the light freshman year with Drama 1 PDP Honours. Honestly, I'm so glad I made my way back to theatre. Its impacted my life in more ways than I have time to count and I wouldn't trade the experiences I've had with our little department for anything in the world :)
