This year, I am one of three directors of the spring musical called the Spring Sing. The Spring Sing is a completely student-run production, with one faculty advisor, where we can perform anything we want! I have been in the cast of the Spring Sing during my freshman and sophomore years, and last year, the more »

Musical!!!
As you’ve probably read by now, we’ve just had a production run of “Curtains.” I’ve luckily managed to secure the role of Oscar Shapiro, the general manager of the “show within the show”. Confusing, yeah? The show begins with the murder of an atrocious leading lady, and brings on Boston PD’s own Lt. Frank Cioffi more »
Power Tools!
What better way to welcome the new year then to bring out the power tools to build the musical set? On Sunday the crew for the play built a four-foot wooden platform for the actors to dance on. It took all afternoon, and we had fun every minute. It was a great end to our more »
Back!! (Musical?)
It does feel good to be back. One would think that a break from school would be relaxing and a refreshing way to stop school activities and just have fun. Until the day you go back to school, and you can’t help thinking: Ugh. School. Not here. Being from the other side of the world, more »
Blarg!
‘Tis the season to be jolly!!! It is now December, and temperatures are getting to the low 40s. A bunch of stuff happened since the last update. We had tryouts for the winter musical, of which I am still awaiting the cast list. There were a LOT of people who auditioned, and all the guys more »
Let the Dancing Begin!
Last week, the best part of the musical began: the choreography. This year we are doing Rent for the winter musical, and on Sunday, we began choreographing La Vie Boheme, which is one of the big ensemble numbers. It was REALLY fun, but boy was it overwhelming. My mind was buzzing with shoulder rolls, points, more »
All over the PAC
There are so many ways to be involved in the performing arts here at Thacher. You could star in the play, design the costumes, run the inner workings of the production, or make live sound effects a la the trifecta. In the fall, my friends, Lexie, Alex and I formed the Trifecta. The Trifecta is more »
Challenge and Growth
As perspectives go, during the winter of last year, I was in musical rehearsals every night. I had an amazing time from beginning to end, and had a lot of fun. It was the first time I had ever been in a musical, and I met many others who shared my passion. During my freshman more »

Feeling the Burn
Late nights filled with hot tea and Bon Iver, this week is surely going to be a hard one. I have two Arab-Israeli essays due on the same day, two Chinese quizzes and an English essay all due next week. As I’m starting to come down with a cold, my room is filled with a more »
Hitting the Ground Running
Happy New Year from Rome! I’m here with my family. Church bells around the city simultaneously as fireworks are being shot off in piazzas all around. Though it has already been two weeks since school got out, it only feels like only a short time we have been away. It’s surprising how soon we will more »
