Sage's Play Paper

I went to the play for this class assignment and it was really good to see a theater play than
movies I see all the time. They are two different things all together and that’s what makes the
experience so god in its own unique way. I prepared myself by eating and going to the rest
room before hand since this is a live performance I can’t just simply pause the show as if I were
watching this on television and even at a movie theater I never get distracted and go to the
restroom and ruin what I paid to see.

The theater was within a apartment complex with many resident who not only had dogs every where but loved to just hang out and relax. It was a very nice place to live. As I entered the theater the
curtains where up and shoed the stage and its props set up for the performance and that I never see for
the plays I went to in the past. A projector was up playing old World War II looney toons cartoons to be
with the theme of the play and I didn’t mine that so it can kill time and make the show start sooner than
you think.
The actors in the play where very good at staying in character and making them
believable. The main actor did a great job for his role and kept the crowd constantly laughing at
his sarcasm and nervous behavior. Which the scenes where he steps of stage to talk to the
audience what he thinks of the situation is in where really well done. A spot light beamed down
on him while every other light was turned off. This gave it a look to show that we are not
watching him but watching him be his mind to talk to us. It was as if this was a whole new
stage.

Besides everything being professionally being a well done play I want to go to more and
watch different themes and see how they gets their moods across with lighting, staging and
acting.
