Marin Theatre Company
By Justine Marler, Edna Maguire School, 5th Grade
t night the flashy silver letters of Marin Theatre Company stand
out in the dark sky. Upon entering, one immediately smells the
delicious treats waiting in the corner. You hear the hammering of
workers repairing last-minute props backstage. You see directors
running around with clipboards and pencils wedged behind their ears. You
feel your stomach flip with the excitement — the show is about to start!
"Thump, Thump," four actors from the Stinky Cheese Man production are
noisily making their way down the stairs backstage. Once behind the curtains,
I waited for my cue. I watched as Chickin' Lickin' waddled onstage
for her part, the audience were loving it! I nervously adjusted my fox ears.
Then it came. My cue. WIthout thinking, I jumped onstage feeling the
warm comforting rays of the spotlight hit my face. I smiled. |
