okay, so like I'm realllllly excited that we have a new One Act play, because no offense to anyone who likes the play "Animal Farm", but I really don't think it's fun and/or good play to do when competing for a state title. I mean, if you have ever read the book before it's actually a great allegory on the oppressive state of Russia when it was going through it's communist phase way back when as it uses animals and humans to portray the different dictators and citizens who played a role in this event. But as far as a play goes, I got to say it's pretty boring. Even if you get the most superb acting from the best high school students in theatre, it would still be a bit of a monotonous play filled with seemingly endless lines from one monologue to the next. but NOW our school is doing a one act that might as well be the complete one eighty from the previous one: "Andromeda Galaxy!", an awesome play that portrays the mind of a troubled young girl through characters from Star Trek, making it an amazing and exciting play to watch for people who either love Star Trek or love to make fun of it (like the movie "Vampires Suck!!!") To say the least it's going to be awesome. I would know. I've already read it.
