A Theater Experience

This week I went to see the show “We Are Proud to Present a Presentation About the Herero of Namibia, Formerly Known as Southwest Africa, From the German Südwestafrika, Between the Years 1884–1915” at the Baker Theater. This was the first Muhlenberg performance that I have seen. The show left me speechless. I thought that the acting was done very well. The actor’s dynamic was amazing and even when there was a power outage in the theater they stayed in character. As someone who did tech theater in high school, I thought that the use of props and lighting really elevated the show to a new level. On top of all that the storyline of the show was very informative. I had never learned about this tragedy but the play taught me a lot. Overall, I had a very good experience and I look forward to seeing many more shows.
