Hello everyone, this week I was able to interview one of the actresses of the production. Junior Misty Adkins is here to answer a few of our questions and tell us a bit more about the production.

Tell us about the acting troupe

The acting troupe is a lot of fun. We (the actors) have really good chemistry because there are only a few of us in the troupe. We have really interesting personalities. First there is Bottom, who’s full of himself and really cocky. He thinks he’s a wonderful actor, when in truth he’s not. There’s Snout, who is this “little boy” character, very eager to jump into his part and perform in front of the audience. Rachael Starveling is the one person in the group who does not care about the play at all. There is Flute, who is a real tomboy character, and she is cast to play the female lead in the play. She usually has troubles getting into character. Snug, played by me, is the nerd and is forced to play the lion. I’m always very shy. Finally there’s Quince, who is the director and somewhat micro-managing.

What are some challenges you’ll have to overcome as an actress?

Some challenges I’ll have to overcome as an actor are thinking like my characters, referring back to past shows and trying not to imitate my older characters. I don’t want to play the same person twice. Also, I have to keep in mind that I have a character voice, and when I mess up I might get out of character and speak in my normal voice.
