Performing Poetry

As a theatre major I am very used to being in front of people, performing, speaking, and acting. I have never really performed in this way before, though. It’s very emotional and poetic and to be honest at first I was really uncomfortable in this acting style, but through working with and being coached by Peggy and Anne, I feel really comfortable and overall really honored that I have the opportunity to learn and grow in a new acting style while also getting to share a powerful and meaningful story of a beautiful person. I learned new techniques and really leaned into the poetic elements of what I was performing.
