Festival Of The Arts Trip

Festival of the Arts trip

Yesterday on the 14th of March, my class and all the other year seven and eight classes went to Wellington
to attend the Capital E Festival of the Arts.

The first activity we did was to do with Story Studio live and group of three people who acted out
scenarios of a script but also incorporated sounds by only using regular objects.

They performed two plays for us with one being about a world where animals are extinct and the main
character life gets more exciting as they find a cat with magical powers.

The other play was about a girl who turned into a Vampire and how people wouldn’t accept her because
of her but she learns the importance of her self worth as the story goes on.

For the next activity, we went to Wolfgang’s Magical Musical Circus which unlike any other place
could be found in an alleyway.

The act was consisted of three people with a woman and two men. It was a musical/play that had a
lot of excitement and very difficult stunts involved. I had a lot of fun watching them perform on stage.

Lastly, we watched two mimes perform a series of funny scenarios but I found it hard to understand
what was going on due to the lack of words spoken so I was very bored during some of their plays.

My favourite scenario was when one of the men played a  monk and he was able to fight a cleaner
by stopping time. I found it really entertaining.

I had a lot of fun walking around Wellington and I wished it would never end.
