Broadcast Dress Rehersal

Tonight was the final dress rehearsal before Broadcast. Broadcast is my schools “talent show” but it consists only singers, musicians, and dancers. This will be my second Broadcast; my first was as a freshman. Last year I was in Myrtle Beach for softball durning Broadcast week so I couldn’t participate. I do a routine in Broadcast with my wrestling cheer squad. We perform a dance with stunts. Tonight was the last practice run in costume so tomorrow when that curtain opens it’s do or die. My squad is actually the opening act which is really cool. A lot of people say it’s stressful because we’re “setting the tone for the whole show,” but I like the spot because we get to perform quickly and then relax and watch the show on a TV set up in a nearby classroom. I think Broadcast is really cool because the people at our school are really talented so it’s fun to watch. The one kid in my grade plays electric guitar in a band, accompanied singers with an acoustic guitar and piano, and plays trombone  in the school band. Sometimes there are people that you had no clue we’re good at performing and others that have been performing for years. I’m excited for tomorrow and my fingers are crossed that all goes well.
