Take a bite out of …acting

Acting at Apple Tree

Have you ever wanted to be in a play, or learn how to act? Well, I have. In fact, I was just in a play at Apple Tree Arts. I was in a play called Return of the Glass Slipper, a play based off of Cinderella.

When you try out for a certain role for a play, you might not always get that specific role. But that’s alright. I didn’t get the role I auditioned for, but I ended up LOVING my role. I wanted to be Cinderella, but the girl who got Cinderella was great at singing and acting, so she deserved it. I was the fairy godmother.

You get to wear amazing costumes and gorgeous makeup. Some plays you learn in 1 week! Acting is so much fun, I really think you should try it! The soundtracks are amazing, and you meet tons of new people! So why not act for a change? I hope you do!

In the end, it’s the final result of the production that really matters. I get that you might be sad when you don’t get the role you auditioned for, but that’s okay! Just enjoy the play, and watch the magic happen!
