5th Grade: Narrator in an adaptation of A Christmas Carol
later in the same year: Chorus & tiny part in Joseph & the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat

6th Grade: Several parts in a group of folk tales
later in the same year: The Boogie Woogie Piano Teachin' Man in a musical called "It's Saturday"

7th Grade: Hermes in an adaptation of The Odyssey

later in that same year, my only professional production, as Creon's page in The Cleveland Playhouse's production of Antigone

8th Grade: "Billy" in a story based on one of the subsequent Oz books

11th Grade: Gambler (Chorus) in Guys & Dolls

12th Grade: a young boy whose name I forget in "Solstice", a part of a set of plays called "Delta Triangle"

Later that same year, a French Art Connoisseur in "Museum"

Since I've come to college:

A part in a student-written one-act play, and several Gilbert & Sullivan shows, namely:

"The Pirates of Penzance" - Chorus (first act Pirate, second act Policeman)
"Patience" - Colonel Calvary
"HMS Pinafore" - Captain Corcoran
"Iolanthe" - Strephon

These were great experiences...but I currently detest the people in charge of the company, so I'm not doing any more with them.

Yes! I, of course, gave a critically acclaimed performance as Anton. That was my shining moment.

Haven't done theater since, nor do I intend to. I dislike drama as a form of literature in general, but genuinely hate the performance aspect of it.

Some weird play in 5th grade that we only did in class for the teacher and like two other people. Dealt with Thanksgiving and I was one of the Native Americans. It wasn't that long anyway. That was basically it for me doing plays.

I vaguely recall playing Hansel in Hansel and Gretel in 2nd grade. The class was broke up into groups to do different plays, but most of the plays didn't have alot of characters so most people ended up playing trees. Though, we really didn't need any more scenery since it was provided by translucent pictures on an overhead projector. I also remember my eyes hurt afterwards.
I also remember doing a some sort of musical play in 3rd grade where Santa went back in time and met talking dinosaurs....or something.

I was a bird in some play in second grade.

In highschool i was in a few plays because i was part of the drama club. heh.

We did Frankenstein several years ago, i was a "shape" so i was pretty much part of the set. So was Grey... however, he had people sit on him. Often.

then when we did Romeo and Juliet i was the Apothecary and people thought i was friggin awesome. Creepy hobo ftw.

Anything else i've been backstage stuff on.

I played myself in a musicalish thingy once. Had a skit where we apparently lost the oil drum needed for the next act. Pre-recorded my search the day before and had to match my timing when leaving and entering the stage as good as possible with the video.

I wonder if they ever noticed I was wearing a different sweater. The video was mostly first-person so maybe not.

Aside from that, I have little true acting experience and sometimes can't remember if I'm acting in everyday life or not.

Despite all the lines I had to memorize, it was kindof fun playing as Brick because they made me drink tea in a scotch glass. Brick was a big drinker and he had an injured foot. It was a bit difficult to go to the right places on stage with crutches. I was afraid I'd trip over all the rugs laid out.

While I was still in elementary (don't remember which grade) I was supposed to be an apple, and this other guy a pear, and we were meant to sing a song about fruit, or something.

However, I pulled out in the last minute because of stage fright, so the guy had to sing the song all alone. I felt sort of bad for him, but I couldn't help it. Seeing all those parents made me real nervous.

I was very embarrassed because of the way I handled it.. yeah.

I played one of the three wise men in a christmas play in first grade. I didn't have to say anything; just walk behind the other two wise men and then give a gift to Mary.

In second grade I did the voices of some puppets in a puppet show. The puppets were made by me from socks and other things.

Also in second grade I was in a choir where we sort of acted out the songs we sang.

In fourth grade I was in another choir similar to the one in second grade.

In sixth grade I was part of a radio show for the school where I did small things which sometimes involved acting or narrating. At the end of the year we did a show in front of the school kind of like a play.

In grade nine I narrated a play about a kid and his mother.

I haven't done anything with plays since grade nine, but I have acted various roles in about twenty of my own movies and a few other short films made by other people.

Yeah, we also had this puppet show in kindergarten where we made our own puppets. However, I didn't have a role in that play. I still knew all the lines, and would serve as a reminder to the others when they had forgotten what to say.

In...well, it would be 3rd grade, to you anyways, me and some other girls (who I think were my friends) had to do a Sailor Moon skit for part of this performance segment of this school thing. It was pretty dumb and dorky but I guess it was cute .-.;; I also played an extra in just about every other thing imaginable. Nothing big, always just there, like other extras. I was on sound and light crew at the school here's pereformances this year, too.

I like watching plays more than acting in them. If I was home, I'd be getting tickets to Domoto Koichi's SHOCK!, that looks like it will be amazing and I guess he made most of it himself...I admire that a lot.

I played the Tin Man, the lead Flying Monkey AND the Munchkin Mayor in Wizard of Oz. That was a bitch

I also was in the chorus of male villagers (and in the female during Match Maker) in Fiddler on the Roof.

There was a gender reversed Rocky Horror that I auditioned for, but I didn't get Magenta. They wanted someone willing to shave their chest. NO WAY AM I SHAVING MY CHEST.
