Yes, I used to act in high school and I played as Lucy in Dracula. The last play I read was Dracula and I did enjoy it. I've never seen a musical drama, and I dont typically enjoy musical dramas. I have little experience with opera and ballet but I enjoyed seeing the nutcracker. I never watched a film/ tv adaption of a play before. I definitely would like to see more plays.

The last play I read was Inherit the Wind by Jerome Lawrence. I absolutely loved reading this play. Before I read the play, I expected it to be boring. However, After the first scene I was completely hooked!

Hi, Can I find this play to read via Amazon? Sounds, interesting and what exactly did you love about it? More or less, what does it consist of? Is it more as in drama, pensive or even filled with suspense?

I have never attended a professional drama performance. But if I have to choose to attend one that will be a dance or play drama, I read Romeo and Juliet three years ago; it was the last and only play that I have read. I actually don't like to read plays. I have seen a musical drama, but not in person. I saw it in a video. It was evita musical drama, and I actually enjoyed it. I hope to have the opportunity to attend one day. I have no experience at all with opera, but for ballet, I can say that it is graceful to attend the shows. The exquisite dance movements and how those shows can communicate through emotional storytelling without spoken words are a great experience. I watched Doubt by John Parick, and I know that it is an adaptation of the play, but I never read the play. I really enjoyed the film. (word count 155)


Hi, same here never attended a play or drama live. Would be fun and something different to watch. I've also read Romeo and Juliet back in High School, many moons ago. Think I will try to read it again to simply see how things have change depending on the author. Now that I think of it as you mentioned ballet, my daughter took ballet younger now a young lady.

• I've attended to so many drama performances when I was a child and during my early 10s. My mom used to bring me to watch my favorite movies in plays like Peter Pan, Snow white and the seven Dwarfs and I used to enjoy it a lot, then I had it like a habit when I was in middle school until high school before moving to the states. I used to go musical performances to play and to watch with my mom in our mom-daughter time. I used to play the piano and the lyre, which the second one is not known in America and it’s hard to find people who plays it.
• The last play that I read was Macbeth, back in high school. I quite love it because the drama and how the story develops but it was sort of difficult to understand sometimes because old English is something that you cannot read it like a newspaper.
• I like musical dramas quite a lot! My obsession started since I watched High School Musical, then I went to music melodrama like the ones that are on Netflix. But so far, my favorites are La La Land, Elvis and the sound of Magic which is a Korean Musical drama.
• What is your experience with opera and ballet? My mom loved extracurricular back in my earliest years and she decided to put me in Ballet which I had to drop it because I did not enjoy, Opera is not for me, I hate LOUD OR HIGH NOTES ALL THE TIMIE, AND OPERA IS A CONSTANT OF THAT.

Oh Wow! How amazing and exciting to have been able to watch drama performances. Although, I must agree with you in terms of Opera would be something I trust I couldn't watch especially high pitch notes... so screeching. Those are fond memories you shall always have since it was between you and your mother bonding moments.

I've seen numerous plays. One of my first plays was a school play for hairspray. It was very funny, especially because it was performed by students I was familiar with. Whether it's a hilarious comedy like "Hairspray" or a heartfelt drama, the magic of live theater is made even more special when performed by a community you know.

Yes, I have attended a professional drama performance before. It was actually a play that I went to see with some friends last year. The play was a modern adaptation of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," and it was truly a mesmerizing experience. The actors did an incredible job bringing the characters to life, and the set design added to the overall atmosphere of the production.

The last play I read was "Death of a Salesman" by Arthur Miller. I have to say, I really enjoyed it. The way the playwright captured the struggles and disillusionment of the main character, Willy Loman, was incredibly moving. It's a timeless piece that delves deep into themes of family dynamics, the American Dream, and the harsh realities of modern society.

The dialogue between characters felt realistic and raw, making it easy to empathize with their emotions and motivations. Overall, "Death of a Salesman" left me reflecting on the fragile nature of ego and how our relentless pursuit of success can often lead to our downfall. It's definitely a play that stays with you long after you've finished reading it.

Yes, I've seen a few musical dramas! One that stands out in my memory is "Les Misérables," which is a classic musical based on the novel by Victor Hugo. It tells the story of Jean Valjean, an ex-convict trying to start a new life while being pursued by the ruthless Inspector Javert in 19th-century France. The emotional performances and powerful songs really drew me in, and I found myself getting completely lost in the story.

I have to admit, I'm a sucker for musicals - there's just something so magical about watching characters express their deepest emotions through song and dance. So yes, I definitely enjoy musicals and will jump at any chance to see one live or on screen!

I have limited experience with opera and ballet, but I have always found them to be fascinating art forms. I remember attending my first opera performance several years ago and being completely captivated by the powerful singing, elaborate costumes, and dramatic storytelling.

While I may not be well-versed in the intricacies of classical music or dance, I can appreciate the incredible talent and dedication that goes into creating a successful opera or ballet production. Watching a ballet performance live is also a breathtaking experience;

Yeah, I've watched a few film and TV adaptations of plays before, and honestly, I think I prefer the film format. Don't get me wrong, there's something special about seeing a play live on stage with all the energy and raw emotion right in front of you.
