My friend Curt was a forensics guy in highschool (debating not CSI). When he went to Radford, he tried out for a production of Macbeth. He was the only non-theater major to be cast. He was Seyton, the murderer. He killed and bled many on stage. The crowd was stunned, asking “How is he such a good actor without taking a class with the drama department?”
When we performed an excerpt from “The Crucible” in class, Jeff outshone him with the role of Paris, done with a slight 20’s New York accent. Casting Ron as Danforth was a mistake.
I cannot perform to my fullest wihtout a proper stage and some Perrier.
*Arthur Miller was an American playwright and essayist. He was a prominent figure in American theatre, writing dramas that include award-winning plays such as All My Sons, Death of a Salesman, and The Crucible.
