Ayden Lowe The Difference Between Good Acting And Bad Acting

When you go see a performance of any kind you are watching actors trying to convey a story with everything that they do onstage. Watching the performance each person sees different things and receives the message a little differently and it is the actors job to give the audience the experience. But in looking at what the actors do to portray the message what constitutes good acting from bad acting? In my opinion good acting is where you can clearly see the emotions of the actor based on their pitch and tone of voice, their facial expressions, and even the way they physically move and use their body language. When you see good acting, it can make you forget that it’s a person putting on a role and that character actually feels like a real live
She was the main character of the play. As the main character of the play you must have very good acting skills because you’re the spotlight for a lot of the performance. Ayden’s acting as Veronica was very good and added a lot to the play. Ayden literally wore her emotions on her skin which made it very easy for the audience to tell how she was feeling and what she was trying to portray. One scene that really showed Ayden’s acting skills was when she transformed from a nerd into one of the Heathers, in this scene she was able to create a new character and changed the way she spoke and her body language to convey this new persona.

In this scene J.D. sang a solo called Freeze Your Brain in which he really poured out all of his emotions and in doing this it made the audience fall in love with him and his character came to life for everyone in the theatre. Another scene that made Alex’s acting stand out was scene where he was arguing with his dad. In this scene he further showed us his emotions and body language well and even switched roles with his dad talking as J.D. and J.D. talking as his dad. Alex’s performance as J.D. is a great example of good acting and how to really build your character and how to play the part the way that most affects the audience and gets their
