Performance

The live performance I attended took place at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida on November 20. This place is well known for its nightlife scene and endless entertainment options and live concerts, however this specific night something major was about to happen for all of us from the Cuban community. It was the first time that young Cuban musicians from different musical backgrounds, would come to U.S and offer a huge concert, all together on the same scenario. There was…

For my Live Performance Critique Assignment I saw the theater performance “Future Thinking”. The story revolved around a man named peter probably in his late forties or early fifties being questioned by the security guard Jim about not following the rules of his restraining order with a young actress named Chiara. Peter is absolutely in love with Chiara and would do anything just to get her autograph even if that meant breaking the restraining order. By Peter being the stalker he is he did end…

summer where I performed right outside the entrance the to the showcase. I performed the roles of the Faun in Vaslav Nijinsky’s Afternoon of a Faun, and Prince Ivan in The Firebird. The two performances we did were received very well by over 1000 people. The exhibit was quite inspiring for these performances, like seeing the costumes for the Nymphs in Afternoon of a Faun gave me chills. Though the video of the restaged version of the ballet with Nureyev as the title role seemed overdramatic…

Part 1: Performance Description and Analysis The mariner, the navigator, the sailor, or the pirate? The performer identified himself as all of these depending on the situations during a particular time in the performance. One event that sticks with me the most, one that the entire performance was rooted in, was the killing of the albatross. The mariner made friends with the albatross before, one day, losing it and killing it with his bow and arrow. This shaped the rest of the…

In the Performance Ensemble’s production of The Fiery and the Snuffy; or, As If Through Separation, the students had a opportunity to develop and workshop their own characters. Once each student created their own unique characters they brought them all together to create a single work. Overall, I found the performance interesting to watch; however, I found that at times the multiple storylines were complicated and hard to follow. There were moments that completely captivated my attention as an…

Southern Mississippi hosted the Repertory Dance Company Fall Dance Concert. This was primarily a showcase for dance majors and students that displayed phenomenal dance skills. Held at the Mannoni Performing Arts Center at the university’s campus, the performances highlighted various blossoming dancers with a wide range of unique dance styles. This was a superb opportunity to gain a different conception of dance, which for an experienced Jazz and Hip-Hop dancer, created the perfect challenge. The…

is known for being a Warbler on the show Glee and being a contestant on the previous season of Dancing with the Stars. Ross is mainly known for playing Austin on the Disney channel show Austin and Ally. I have actually been to one of their live performances at the Granada in Lawrence, KS about three years ago when they weren’t quite as popular and had a great time there. What is so great about their concerts is how much fun they are having while on stage. They interact with each other on stage…

The groups concept for the distilled performance is to make it a presentational performance. Since we can not use actual props or costumes, it just makes more sense to make it presentational and allows for more creative thinking. Another concept for this performance that is being worked on is a presentational table; which will be further explained later. Other than those concepts, another concept that has been brought up is presenting this performance while in a semi-circle. By doing so, it…

After an entire semester of ballet class, I am able to say that I acquired the most basic knowledge of the field. Although my performance was not always the best, I managed to learn the sequences and movements. By watching the videotaped performance, I was able to identify the aspects of ballet technique that were taught along the semester and that I performed correctly, as well as the aspects that need further correction and improvement. Also, as compared to the midterm self-evaluation, it is…
