Last week was the school play. I was in it and it was super fun. I had lots of parts and stuff and I needed something to post about so I'll just write about my costume and what I did for each part. The show was Jason and the Argonauts. If you haven't heard of it, it's a greek myth about a boy named Jason who's aunt has the throne of his kingdom (I was the aunt). Jason wants the throne because he is the heir to it and it is his turn to rule. So his aunt sends him to do tasks and in return she will give him the throne. She sends him to bring her the golden fleece. And along the way Jason gets a bout, a crew and encounters many friends and foes.
FIRST
I was queen Pelias. I was Jason's aunt and I sent him on the quest to get the golden fleece.
I wore this costume... I also wore it around the house for two hours when I got it because I'm obsessed. I also had a crown and a scepter.
SECOND
I was part of the hellespont dance. everyone had to run around in 2 circles with the "boat" in the middle. It was supposed to look like a storm. We all just wore all black. That scene wasn't all that interesting.
THIRD
I was a giant I wore a shirt that sort of just looked like a scrap of fabric. I carried around a huge blow up club. I looked pretty silly. Also we all had to sing:
"FEE FI,
FO FUM,
IT'S TIME TO FILL OUR TUMS,
IT'S TIME TO EAT,
THEY SMELL QUITE GREEK
YUM YUM YUM YUM YUM YUM
It was kind of silly but still fun.
FOURTH
I was part of the Simple Glades. Which I know sorta sounds like single ladies. That parody was already made. We wore all black. We were supposed to look like clashing rocks. We spun a lot. That scene wasn't all that interesting either.
FIFTH
I was an amazon warrior. That scene was really cool we wore all black and there was a super cool dance. I got to leap and then jump onto the stage and spin past another girl then run in a circle and then do a round off and jump off the stage. Everyone got to do a solo trick then jump off the stage. Then I jumped back onto the stage and we walked in a line in the shape of an 8. Then there was another solo section and I did a front handspring. We all had to wear something on our heads to make us all match.
SIXTH
I was a dancer on the isle of Colcus. I had to do the grapevine, turn in a circle and do jazz hands.
SEVENTH
I was a villager. I had to scream and run away from fire breathing oxen.
EIGHTH
I was a dragon tooth that was sewn into the soil then I rose to attack Jason with all the other cast members.
And finally, NINTH
I was queen Pelias again and I gave Jason his throne.
Great job to you and the whole cast!
