Who are you as an artist?
Not another philosophical question..... Such an open ended question.
As an artist, I am many things, or my goal is to be many things. Right now I am merely an actor, a nobody who reads great works and performs them for an audience. I try to do the piece justice, while adding my own spin to it. As everybody knows two actors will perform hamlet in very different ways. I am a performer, I sing, I dance and I act. All because I was born with the ability to do so, and I love performing. As an artist I am a person doing what he loves.
What I want to be, is a writer, a director, a stage manager, a choreographer, a lighting manager.... even sound. I want to explore every avenue of theater there is, I want to figure out, as an artist, what I love doing the most, and what I am the best at doing.
Why are you here?
I am here because all the way through elementary school I partook in theater. I performed in a couple of plays and acted whenever I could. Then in MYP I took drama 3 years in a row, and loved every moment of it. Now I am in IB, trying to figure out what I want to do in life. Its not that the courses I chose are boring, its just that none of them really interest me, none of them make my head turn and go "Wow I want to know more!". Drama does that for me, it peaks my interest and makes the whole day worthwhile. I am here because I love the atmosphere the people of theater create, as well as theater itself.
