Commedia Dell'arte has influenced many performances throughout theatrical history.

Compared to the Mozart’s “Little Night Music” performance I attended a week ago, the atmosphere was more relaxed. The patrons for this specific event

D is for Duet When I was in 5th grade my friend, Hannah and I did a duet for dance. We both had been doing dance and tumbling for a long time at the same dance studio.

I agree with Gregory Orr’s claim as I heavily rely on music to help regulate my mood on a daily basis. In fact, I listen to many genres of music and in different languages, including English, French, and Punjabi. Each genre of music brings its own sense of satisfaction. I listen to rap music by J.

In addition, I listen to Punjabi bhangra music when I have completed my daily activities or assignments because it

months I’ve been a movie star! Well… not really. I’ve actually just been in a part of a school musical. Okay, I lied again. What it REALLY is is a 6th grade elective musical called “Annie”! It’s the whole kip and kaboodle; cast, costumes/props, and performances. Being in a musical with numerous 6th graders brings joy to all the actors lives. Of course, being in a play means you need to try out/audition for a character in Annie. I auditioned for THREE roles and was devastated when I found out I
