Biggest Show Pix

Posted on: December 10th, 2010 by wmapother 6 Comments
As I expected (here), last week’s Biggest Show for the Young Storytellers Foundation was a blast.  If you’re anywhere in the LA region (or ‘the southland,’ as no one but the local media call it), definitely participate or at least attend a show.  And whether you’re here or on the moon, it’s certainly worth donating to, which can be done here.

After some opening remarks and awards to volunteers who have performed in dozens of shows, the ten or so actors (just enough for a respectably drama-filled reality show) lined up.  It felt just like a cattle call.  Except the buyers were eleven-year-old playwrights.

Then one by one, each actor went to the front of the stage and pitched herself or himself to be cast in their plays.  Some actors danced, some did voices, and some, like me, just sat and said, basically, ‘Cast me, please, you eleven-year-olds.’  And they did.
