I've only stared in 1 one act which was last years, 'A thousand cranes.' Q: what is this one act about? A: This one act is set in the village of Lidice, Czechoslovakia and is based on real events. During World War II the Nazis claimed that the citizens of Lidice were harboring an assassin of Reinhard Heydrich who was a Nazi henchman. The Nazis ended up destroying every structure, kill every man they could, put the women in “concentration camps,” and have the children go into “educational institutions.” Q: Are you gonna be in the one act? A: Well, we haven't had tryouts yet but I plan on doing it! Q: what’s your favorite part of plays or drama? A: I love the freedom to express yourself and I like working with the cast, especially in one acts since it's a smaller group of dedicated actors and actresses.
