Samantha Play Paper

A Few weeks ago, Me, Bryan and Sage went to go see this play called Biloxi Blues. It was my first time ever seeing a play. I’m more of a musical, opera person, plays have never gotten my interest, but  that’s besides the point.  But when I walked in, and saw all the people waiting line and I started to change my mine about the play I was about to watch. The doors open at 8pm all the guest walked in ,and  sat at there seats. I remember the seats; they were purple my favorite color. The first thing I notices when I walked in was the stage. I was shocked the theater was so small. I began to wonder how the actors were going to perform with such a confined space. This theater was different then most theater, because the way it was arrange made me, and the audience feel like we were apart the of sense. I will have to say that seeing this play was very refreshing for me. I was quit impress with the acting and the actor. When the play started I really like the way how the music that they were playing was helping our mines get into a mood for  us to understand the story a little  better. Biloxi Blues is a story about a group of young  men going to boot camp to train for world war II. These guys are introduce by a very excited young guy by name of Eugene morris Jerome. He keep’s a diary with him the whole time writing down his thoughts and his view and each guy meets on his trip to boot camp. In this story we follow this guy through tough to time’s . Each solder has a different story and where they came form, beside the point joining the army. You have this one guy that Is a self center jackass that want  to be the boss of every, you have another that is not the brightness in group and his sort of a kiss ass and a push over, but seems to be like by the other in the group. Now this charter about tell u about should not even be in the army at all. This guy was 6”3 and was skinny at pole, he had big ear’s and he wore the big nerd class, and on top of that he was a Jew! There was a guy that crazy and had some dark things about him that one really could see at the moment. And last you had Eugene, a guy who was kind of Holden by his insert curies but was very smart and overall nice guy, kind of too nice. I can say that this story was very relatable to, because as me growing up to become man also dealt with some of these problems. Like the Jew, and Eugene I also had to battle my insert curies. The morel of this is to find who you in life and be comfortable  with it. We all have problems, but he’s all have you handle the your problems in. you see at the end the each solder had change for the first time we see them in the story. Life some time we need a a moment or a mine war to make us lessen the things that hold us back in life.
