HEYZ- THIS IS LAURIE
Andrew Keenan-Bolger is my idol.
He went to the University of Michigan as his college and he studied theater.
As of now, he is playing the role of 'Crutchie' in Newsies, the Broadway Musical!!
I have dreams that one day I'll be on Broadway.
And I know I will be on Broadway too... But what if I don't?
I mean, what will I do with my life? Acting is amazing and fun and it's just so...
Look.
Acting is not just a hobby.
Acting is expressing yourself and knowing you can be anyone you want.
For instance, one day you can portray a role of a shy, complex and gentle person- and the next day you can portray an outgoing, loud an obnoxious person!
You can be anyone you want!!
Now I know a lot of people might think I'm crazy.
BUT THINK.
I'm an eleven and a half year old. How crazy can I really be?
When I talk about acting, my friends think it's just and annoying hobby that I never stop talking about.
But I promise it isn't.
Please. If you've ever tried acting or any type of theatrical job- prove those people wrong.
It's not just a hobby or an interest. It's a life! It's a fantasy only few of us get to live.
So please, post a comment if anyone in the theater business has doubted that acting is amazing, or it's just a thing people like.
And you better tell them- It's something people love and live for.
Love,
That crazy eleven year old girl, Laurie :)
