Lady of the House Rehearsal

Today, we had our first rehearsal for Lady of the House, presented by the iPoly Drama Club. This dramady about Didi Mayflower, who runs for office against her son-in-law to be will star several of the iPoly seniors, and promises to be a hit. The show opens December 12, and will include the first weekend show the drama club has put on.

Independent Component 1 Plan Approval

1) Write a description of what you plan on doing for your independent study component.

• For my independent component, I will be stage managing the play Lady of the House for the iPoly Drama Club. This will include attending and working rehearsals, assisting in the construction of the set, and running the show during the performances.

2) Describe in detail how you think your plan will meet the 30 hours work requirement.

• Rehearsals are 3 days a week for several weeks, which should result in surpassing the 30 hour minimum.

3) How does your independent study component relate to your working EQ?

• I am directly working as a stage manager, and this will definitely help me understand what the essential duties of a stage manager are. This is also valuable experience in the field.

The Rainmaker

Today, The Rainmaker closed at Chino Community Theatre. I got the chance to Stage Manager for the show and its wonderful team, and I have completed my 50 hours of mentorship for senior year already. I feel that this will give me an advantage when it comes time to cram, and I don’t have to worry about doing my mentorship in addition to whatever cramming I have to do. It was a great experience, and I hope to return to this theatre in the future.
