School For Scandal

On Friday, Ventana and I went to see our third play at Theatricum. The play was called "School for Scandal" and although it wasn't a Shakespeare play, I was excited to see it. As you may know, Ventana and I perform as fairies in the professional Midsummer's Nights Dream. Whenever we're backstage I always see the costumes from School for Scandal, and they inspired me to see it.

The play is set in the 1777 and tells a story of life in those times. It is full of gossip, plots, scandal, and extravagant clothes. Overall, it was one of the best plays I've seen there. Although I didn't understand everything, it was funny and wonderful to watch. The

 costumes were great; colorful and huge. They all had big colored wigs which I loved to look at. The acting was also really good! My teacher Willow (left), who I've had since I was little, was absolutely amazing! She was so funny and cute and didn't feel like herself. Another great performance was given by Mark Lewis (left). He directed my play 

at school last year and I've known him some time before that. It was so much fun to see all my directors and teachers acting on stage. They are all so good!

Anyways, it was an extremely fun play to see! I loved it so much! If you're only going to see one play at Theatricum, I'd say this is the one to see (or Midsummer's Nights Dream, but they do it every summer, so no need to rush to see it). I had an extremely good time and I wouldn't mind seeing it again!

New Hair

Last Friday, after camp My and I went to Ventana's. We ate homemade ice cream talked about camp. My wanted to make a movie, and while looking for costumes in V's closet, we found a bag full of her wigs. V and I used to get a new wig together every Halloween, it became a tradition. A new wig and then we'd make a movie with it. Each wig was better than the last. Of course, we had our favorites. For some reason, we stopped the wig-buying tradition and I forgot about our hairy friends.
We each grabbed a wig and stuffed it onto our heads. I chose the blond, curly one. My chose a red one, which didn't work on her, so she picked a pink curly one. V took the red one that My had discarded. Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of her in it. In all, we were a strange bunch. We attempted to film a short film, but it didn't really work because we could decide on a story. It was fun none the less. We all looked really different, and I was surprised that I don't look that bad as a blond. Then again, I like my hair better!
