it should make you happy. That way you don't have much competition ;)

What exactly is it by the way?

I know a few people that do theatre review and video, and lots of performers of course. I was gunna to theatre review but I dropped drama at the end of term 1. Not cause I didn't enjoy it but because I had too many other long term projects to do. That said its been fun watching all the groups bicker, or people stressing about their IPs - :D

yeah she's amazing. Halfway through the year we were assessed on our IP's as though it were our real performance ( a tad unfair seeing as though we were only halfway through it). We all got below 20/30, and she managed to get 29/30.

She's amazing in all the arts - musica, drama, art, english..... a real good freak :D

But it is degrading being compared with her...

shit guys!! all this competition i didn't know existed!! i was happy living in my own little fantasy when everyone was about on the same level, no major people like you are talking about. damn me living in a shit hole! the best we can do in our drama class is an ex australian ballet student who is the biggest drama queen in the world. she compliments our group though, esp me who is really bad at drama but loves it.
i cant believe no one is doing the same as me!! i dont know whether that is good or bad. i cant make a decision! well back to writing it anyways. i had to be stupid and leave everything to the last minute. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

basically what i have to do is research a playwright, theatre company or issue in theatre and write about it. 3500 words. bascially my question is whether Louis Nowra's play Radiance is valid when discussing issues faced by country Aboriginal women. sounds crazy, but i like it.

i couldn't imagine doing a video drama...WAY too much work! and the whole fact that i've never owned a video camera in my life...and wouldnt have a clue how to do anything, because that would require equipment that i didnt have.

but, if anyone is feeling exceptionally bored, you can read my play if you want...all its missing is a diagram of the stage, cause fanfiction will only upload textfiles... http://www.fanfiction.net/read.php?storyid=940631 its pretty bad...but nowhere near as bad as my original attempt!

Video drama rules!!!!

It isnt that hard to do and unlike a performance...you cannot stuff up, cos you can easily edit it!.
There are downsides to it , like the greuling hours at the computer and all the written work, but all in all it is fun.
