: Cowichan Theatre (Island Savings Centre)
This past year, I was in grade nine at Duncan Christian Secondary School. In December 2011, Greg Hollett held auditions for the school's upcoming production, Cinderella (The Enchanted Edition). The new year rolled around, the cast list went up... I got the role of Cinderella! I was so excited to one, not only play the female lead, but two, challenge myself with a new character to portray onstage. Cinderella is sweet whereas, for example, Ms. Hannigan, is not. We performed Cinderella at the Cowichan Theatre on May 23 and 24. Leading up to the show, I had started to develop a bit of a cold. Not getting enough sleep and rehearsing every spare moment of one's day will do that to a person. Come opening night, my voice was definitely not at it's best but I went out there and gave it my all anyway. The next morning, I woke up only with a few hours of sleep and basically no voice. Long story short, I went out onstage and performed, having to lip synch my songs. Scariest thing of my life. But I will take this experience with me until the end, it has taught me so much!http://www.cowichannewsleader.com/entertainment/151186765.html
