No matter what seats you get there will be a lot of standing because everyone is dancing and singing. The ground level wouldn’t be good for kids and aren’t as good for comfort because there is just folding chairs. The second level is where I sat and was a good view because the seats were layered. The third stage is very far from the stage even though there are TVs it is hard to actually see him on stage. Then there is the back of the stage, which is just seeing his back which probably isn’t the best. The opening act was Dua Lipa which was a band I wasn’t very familiar with. Their songs were okay, but I thought that they were well performed. I thought it felt very long and that it took time away from Bruno Marses actual performance. Bruno Marses performance was really great. He played a ton of high energy songs and no sad songs which I thought was awesome. There also were really cool stage effects too that added to the act. Although it seemed kind of short, Mars made it last. The type of people there are basically every age above 5. Some people get drunk and crazy, so it can sometimes not be kid friendly. It is pretty much kid friendly, though, and is so fun for all age groups. Therfore, younger kids should bring earbuds or something because it can get
David Hicks was a 34 year old black male. He was on death row in Texas from December of 1987 to April of 1988, sentenced to die by lethal injection for rape and murder, on April 25th 1988, of his 87-year-old grandmother, Ms. Ocolor Heggar. David was only a suspect because he was near her house at the time of the crime. There was no indication that he had been inside¡Xexcept, for DNA evidence. The DNA test determined that similarities between sections of DNA removed from David¡¦s blood and DNA recovered from semen in Ms. Heggar¡¦s house would occur only one time in a total of 96 million people.
The stage was in proscenium form so it allowed most audience members to have the same amount of viewing as others throughout the theater. Due to the theatre space being so small and intimate, it created the relevant atmosphere of everything on stage happening to be small.
Overall, I enjoyed the concert and I think the musicians did a nice job performing those music pieces. It was my first time participating in a jazz concert, and I had a better understanding about jazz music after hearing their performance. Jazz is a music genre that was originated from the African American communities during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Besides, I feel really honored to be able to enjoy the performance of the famous bassist Rufus Reid. He is one of the most passionate musicians I have ever seen and it was a pleasure to listen to his work from “Quiet Pride: The Elizabeth Catlett Project”.
Overall, I was very impressed by the concert and I feel that the rest of the audience was also impressed. The expectations for the members of the Chamber Orchestra are high and those were met, but I feel that the expectations for the choral group were not as high. My expectations for the choir were not very high and they were immensely exceeded. The level of talent in that group was something that I was really not expecting at all.
When it came to the dialogue of the production and the understanding of it the performers again did an excellent job. Their gestures and vocal elements all aided in the production’s success and were all fittingly used by the characters. For example, when Lala was talking on the phone with Peachy she casually twirled the phone cord in her hand, leaned against the banister and childishly flirted with Peachy.
Overall there was a strong script with excellent actors. The performance was very funny. There was a well designed set and costumes. The performance I saw influenced my opinions on theatre in general, in a positive way. I will definitely consider using theatre for my future entertainment(closing paragraphs are hard).
Throughout the musical, the prowess of each individual performer was on display. Every performer, with the exception of Kristine, expressed a power and vibrato that was breathtaking; the highest notes lilting and the lowest notes thundering. I was in awe during a majority of the performances because of the commanding singing in each performer.
Every performance was presented with charm. The flashing, changing colors seem to go along with the performances. The director was humorous. The performers outfits were on point too. I liked the color coding of the vocalists, Jeremy, Jordan, and Rowan. Also, Julie wore a pretty suede dress and had a great voice. It was nice to see her come out for the 2nd time to sing. When Spencer kept playing his saxophone in some of the performances, it was just amazing. Some of my favorite performances were Sittin on the Dock of the Bay, Ain’t too Proud to Beg, In a Sentimental Mood, and more. It really made me feel like I was in New Orleans all over again. I absolutely love Otis Redding and The Temptations music, so I wasn’t new to these songs they played. I was sitting in the back (R-125) where I felt comfortable to bob my head to the music. If I ever come back to see another concert, I will make sure to get a seat in the back again. I adore Jordan that did sung the Temptations song. I thought it was exciting to see his enthusiasm while on stage keeping us engaged, but everyone did great in their own way. The song by Duke Ellington made me feel melancholy, the piece was soft. I just couldn’t believe how well everyone contributed and gave an outstanding
Life presents a wide array of obstacles as well as opportunities, and it is important to be prepared to take on whatever it is that life has to offer. In his Harvard Commencement Address, Will Ferrell reinforces this idea into the 2003 graduating class of the prestigious Harvard University as they prepare to move on to do greater things. His comedic approach is successful due to his ability to evoke feelings of laughter from his audience while also making them realize that they are entering a new stage of life. Although Ferrell is speaking directly to the class of 2003, anyone who listens to or who views his speech will experience humor in an otherwise serious event, and they will reflect on their own life or envision their future.

Listening to Bono’s songs you hear his enthralling voice that quickly can gain someone’s attention. Bono is a talented singer who has a wide range of vocals displayed throughout his songs. While singing he is simply just confident and willing as the words just naturally come out of his mouth in song. Bono has an interesting vocal tone to other artists but it is consistent and controlled through his
Overall, I think Bruno Mars’ album Doo-Wops & Hooligans exceeded everything I expected of it. The fact that every song has its own message and creates a different appeal for the people listening to the song, such as myself. He used different techniques in all his songs to bring us in create an amazing
Even when he was a part of Jackson 5, the whole band depended on Michael’s performance. He was the youngest so he was full of energy and loved to dance. He began to love the excitement of being under the spotlight, entertaining the audience with all eyes fixed on him. And that is the core element of fame, especially in Pop music industry, which he later changed it for good. But first of all let’s take a look into the definition of Pop Music.
There are many famous artists in the industry today. There are many that lack originality and imagination. Many of them have the same style, same type of genre and the same way they rise to stardom- mainly tabloids. However, there is one name that stands out, making a unique name for himself- Bruno Mars.
Michael Jackson is one of my favorite singers. He is very famous, so most of all people in the world know him, at least his name. I began to listen to his songs because I was recommended them by my friend, and I was really attracted by them. I have two reasons why I like him.
The audience and I, sat down at tables with food and some sort of beverage, chatting with our friends and family during the performance. When every song was over, we clapped and after a few songs there was a little bit of cheering! Since, I have only been to a concert I will compare it to this. At a concert, I would rate the audience’s interaction with the performance as very involved. I feel this way because the audience tends to cheer before and after every song and sing along to every song played. The main focus of a concert is the concert, whereas here at the Portage Crossing Market District, the performance felt like background music and the main focus was hanging out with your family and
