Who's been in a school play?
I was in a bunch, but no major parts. My school focused on musicals, and my voice is only adequate at best.

3. Has anyone NOT been in them?
I've lost track of how many times I graced (?) the stage -- everything from Shakespeare to musicals.

4. Pied Piper of Hamlet
Edited on Sat Mar-19-05 10:11 PM by pennylane100
when I was about nine. I played one of the rats.
On second thoughts, I was one of the townspeople trying to get of the rats. (It was a long time ago)

6. I was in the chorus in "Lil' Abner"
I played Anne Frank's mom in "The Diary of Anne Frank." I played the mother in "The Egg and I." I was Viola in "Twelfth Night." So I guess I was in school plays, yes!

7. I was Mercurio in Romeo and Juliet
as an understudy in tenth grade, I was at all the readings, but I didn't play.
OTOH, I've played music on many stages at a lot of venues.

15. I got my first part because i had detention with the english teacher-
he was having try-outs that day after school, and as long as i was there for detention, i figured i might as well read for a part.
the play was "Arsenic and Old Lace", and the part was a small one at the end, but i was hooked- and i ended up being in a bunch more- including musicals where i had to sing solos.
