BWW Blog: Marina Maldonado - Bye Bye ECHS!
by Guest Blogger: Marina Maldonado - May 03, 2016
We only have six days left until ECHOStage's cast of Bye Bye Birdie takes the main stage! As we prepare for the move into our performance space, we have to strike our set, repaint it, and load it up into the drama room and eventually into the U-Haul. Most of our focus has been on the MacAfee's house. This is our first time building a house like this, so it's definitely a learning experience for all involved. Because of a project like this, our cast really noticed the importance of teamwork. There's something everyone can help with, even a cast member with no artistic abilities whatsoever (me) can help paint the drops a single solid color and manage to be successful at it!! It's not even just the structure of the house itself, but all the little details that go into it, like sketching and painting details like the oven and little things that will make it more realistic.

BWW Blog: Marina Maldonado - Three Weeks Left: BYE BYE BIRDIE
by Guest Blogger: Marina Maldonado - April 25, 2016
It's cutting down to the wire on our production of Bye Bye Birdie! We have about three weeks left until opening night on May 11th, and we have so much left to do. We've blocked and choreographed everything except 'Shriner's Ballet' and 'An English Teacher', so now it's time to polish our dances to make sure they look perfect! Choreography is such an important part of this show, so we definitely have to work extra hard with our choreographer and vocal director to make sure that when we dance, our vocals stay strong, which has been sort of a weak spot for us so far. Another huge part of this show is off-focus acting, which really comes into play the most during 'Honestly Sincere' as all the teens, adults, and even the mayor's wife can't help but be mesmerized by Conrad's charm.
