Acting

My post this month will be about acting!

As some of you already know, I really like to act, be it at the campsite I work, or at the Drama club at school.

This post will be a short summary of some plays I did in the past few years.
(And yes, there will be pictures)

Campsite
As most of you know, I work at a campsite every summer, in an animationteam.
Here, we play a short, 20 minute long, play for the kids. The characters in these plays are different everyday, one day there are pirates, and the next day there are cowboys and indians. This makes for some hilarious little plays.

Here I'm a bouncer, and I got the thief!
Being a cowboy sheriff, and a father, is hard..
Here are some pictures of me in these Nightstories.





















Are you ready to party??

Shh, I'm not here!

I'm totally not wearing a dress or anything...

Did you know some pirates wear dresses because they're comfy?






















































Little Riding Hood.. And yes, I am the grandma.
















At the campsite we also do musicals, luckily for the people watching, we don't have to sing live, but lipsynch. I also have some pics of some musicals I played in.
You've been a bad boy, Kruimeltje. I need to beat you now.

I want to see soe cash, or you'll be dead. (fun fact: She did die)

Lion King, Simba and Nala singing 'I cant wait to be king'.

Zazu singing 'news of the day'


Jane and her father in Tarzan









































As you can see, multpiple musicals, and multiple roles.
I also played in Mary Poppins, but I had multiple little roles in it, and I can't find pictures of me in that musical.

This year we will probably play the Little Mermaid, and I can't wait!





Drama Club

As I mentioned at the start, I'm in a drama club. This club is at my school, and called 'Wordt vervolgd' wich is 'To be continued' in Dutch.

Every year we do a play for kids at primary schools, and sometimes we do a short play for the kinderboekenweek, a week where reading and books are promoted.
I was the bunny from Alice in Wonderland.


The subject of this Kinderboekenweek was 'Heroes'

We did a play about night stories, and I was a giant book!

One of the nightstories was a Knight story




This year we're doing a play about Farm animals, I'll post some pictures once I have them!

Now this is a little bonus, at the campsite we have a 'playbackshow' a show where the guests can do a little lipsynch act. And we, as the organisers, do a little act ourself most of the time. And guess what?
Some of our acts are on youtube, so here's one of my worst acts, and the best act I've done. (note: They are in Dutch)
