                                                                       Lion King

My personal experience with theater would be when I went to see my sister star in her role in “The Lion King”

There was a live audience. She played the role of a bird. I have watched the original "Lion King" on television. and DVD a million times! Watching this play onstage was entirely different from the movie screen. The theater was a different reflection. The curtains would open and you would see a different scene every time. The different settings would appear and you would have to watch out the scene to know where the setting was.The acts went along with the same story line in" Lion King" The performance was really neat. You would be drawn into the performance. There was exciting music in every scene. Some one the students even sang in this play.You could tell when they were singing that they had drawn themselves into that scene and was going to that place and time in their mind. Like a story book. The costumes were amazing. The costumes were a work of Art and you could see all the hard work that the students and teachers had put into the whole performance.

 The curtains would close and every time it opened you would get excited to know what’s behind it. To me watching this production on theater was most interesting, the students really made the play come to life. It was funny, better drama, and conflict you had a conflict with the Protagonist and Antagonist. The purpose was to have fun and bring this movie to real life.I was so proud of my little sister.She was so excited and I'm glad that I had this personal experience because it made me look at theater in a whole new light. I LOVE IT!!
