High School/College/University etc. Theater/Drama students: What was your best moment on stage?

One thing I want to add about my performance in high school is that it wasn't actually performed *in* the high school. The Theater Arts class I was in was taught by the director at Old Castle Theater, one of the most prominent theaters and art galleries in Southern Vermont. And the play was held there.

I read Diary of Anne Frank in middle school and actually "Fell in love" with Anne. So getting to do the play and getting to be on a real stage in a genuine theater was the most amazing moment of my life.

In high school, I was the lead in two plays that we performed for all the elementary schools in our school district. My best moments was when I got the audience laughing in delight at some of my antics. That gave me quite a high.

Little did I ever guess that I would be a professional storyteller someday. I didn't even know such a thing existed at the time.

My best moment was on my College / University. It was the moment when I first fall in love with someone, have lots fun with friends, lots of unforgetable experiences and finally obtain my profession.

My first year of college I got a role in a play where I had to play a very hard headed, very arrogant and opinionated cardiac surgeon. I could always feel the audience's disapproval of my conduct but my favourite moment ever was during one of the talkbacks where we all came back out after the show and answered questions from the audience. There was one younger girl...perhaps about ten or eleven years of age who asked me 'are you that mean in real life?' It just made the entire evening because I was able to laugh and show her that I was completely unlike my character.

Other cast members answered for me as well. I've had many other memorable moments (I played Edith Frank in the Diary of Anne Frank....amazing!) but that's one that immediately sticks out in my mind.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
