My Time at Dreamcoat

I started Dreamcoat in 2006 doing “The Sound of Music”, I fell in love with theatre and have been doing plays ever since. Dreamcoat has been my thing for 6 years from being in the chorus to being a lead. Now I am celebrating my 15th show “The Jungle Book”. I meet new people every play so if you think about it I know lots of kids, because I do 3 shows a year. Thanks to Dreamcoat I am now doing plays at home, I make up scripts, I make sets and film them. This is my 2nd last time doing the fall show and I am sad to leave next year, many of my friends are younger than me, so when I can no longer do the kids show I will miss seeing them all.

The good thing is that Dreamcoat has a Teen/adult show so when I am in grade 9 to grade 12 and also as an adult I will still be able to do Dreamcoat.

Dreamcoat has taught me many new things for example all the theatre terminaology. Before Dreamcoat I did not know any of the terms such as what “blocking” is, what the “house” is and also the staff titles and what their roles are in theatre. I am grateful to Dreamcoat for all the opportunities they have given me, and I hope Dreamcoat will be around for a long time and I hope to someday be a director for Dreamcoat!
