Where do i start.

I'm so confused of where i should start, perhaps i can get help from city theatre.
So far I've only came up with one thing at the moment and I'm still righting the story line.
The only thing I'm taking any engagement in is writing the story for a script.
Hopefully in the next week ill be researching out the wazoo.

Enter my Mind

I have and I am gathering thoughts;

There is quite a lot of stuff i can research for this topic.

It will be confusing hard, but I dont care this is my goal.

The list:

Costumes/ Design

Set/ Design

Props/ Design

Time it takes place/ Design

Now thats alot but i dont see any speed bumps to watch out for. As Ms. Savido was talking about my love for drama i got an idea that can go for my project and for my internship.
Now i have something in my mind that needs to come,.............. and it goes on paper. I have this great mind bending story and irronice enough i know a person who can fit the main character. Hopfully i can make a play.

Past or Present?

Theatatrical Arts (Drama)
There are two different eras i could talk about or i could talk about both.
Drama in the 16th century, or in the present.
This will be one of my draw backs for now.

Actions on my project.

Sept 9 Tues
For the past week going on two, I have been participating at City Theater for my internship.
There I work as the prop painting personnel, reading scripts and developing prop lists.
I go to the theater room at least ones or twice a week, just to clean or put furniture back in place.
I'm enjoying this internship there because i not only work at a theater, but i can create stuff for the plays. Then possibly get tickets and see them.

I'm so excited for tomorrow to, the drama club is meeting after school tomorrow, i cant wait to see everybody again. I really hope this year me and Cal can get a play together. Her and I are always talking about Will and Grace, and how it would be fun to make something like it.

Final Choice

I have two choices for my grad project, theatrical arts or performing arts. Being that i am in the drama, and i love the theater and i have an internship at one ill do my grad project on theatrical arts.
