The Little Mermaid

This year at South Cache Middle School the Choir and Theater Department put on The Little Mermaid Jr. for the school play.  Logan had the exciting opportunity to be in the school play. Here he is to tell you about it:

"I got the opportunity to be in the school play.  The play this year was the Little Mermaid Jr. we had fun learning to act and dance around. 
The friends in my friend group are Bennett, Lucille, Damon, Lucy, Colson, and Alera.  We all talked each other in to trying out for the play so we could all do it together.  We were all in the play and they were all great at performing their parts.

 Bennett was lucky enough to be a main part in it the play as the butler, Grimsby, while the rest of us were in ensembles.  Damon, Lucille, and Colson were in the sailor/chef ensemble and Lucy and Alera were in the gull ensemble. I was in the sea creature ensemble and played the Fluke.  In the "Under the Sea" song, I had  a solo.



 I also played an escort in another scene. 
This was a great play and we all had fun doing it.  At first it was boring with lots of singing and choreography dances and videos. Once we started actually doing the rehearsal practices, though, that is when it started getting fun. One time I accidentally missed my cue because I was in the bathroom. When I came back they were already circling around Ariel. From then on I learned to hold it if I needed to go until my big break. The dances were easy to memorize and fun to do as well."

Logan did a great job as the Fluke especially on his solo during the Under the Sea song.  His line was "The Fluke is the duke of sole! Yeah!"  It was so funny.  All of the actors were really talented and the show was really well done for a middle school performance.  They did 4 performances and they were all great.

I think Logan did have a good time being in the play especially because all of his friends were there with him.  He told me he would do another play again sometime.  Who knew we would be theater people?  Good job Logan!
