Sarah Sugg (IV) has been acting since she was ten years old. She has been in a myriad of Middle School shows, but most recently played roles in the Upper School’s Landscape of the Body, Killers, and Godspell. She also helped with costumes in Mr. Burns: a Post-Electric Play. Her latest show was the Studio Theatre Series Production, Mr. Marmalade.<\/p>\n

Mr. Marmalade is a dark comedy written in 2004 by Noah Haidle. Sugg plays the lead Lucy, a four-year-old girl who has an imaginary friend named Mr. Marmalade.<\/p>\n

\u201cI act because I enjoy taking on roles aside from myself and learning about different shows,\u201d Sugg said. \u201cI find acting really fun and I\u2018ve found that attempting to become a role is a really good way to forget about anything stressful in my own life and to just focus on that character\u2019s issues.\u201d She added, \u201cI really love the whole community of actors, techies, and directors. I\u2019ve made so many friends that I never would have known had I not been in shows. I also find that whenever I am cast in a show, I am able to speak in class without feeling intimidated because acting involves a lot of public speaking.\u201d<\/p>\n

As an actress, Sugg feels that she \u201cis responsible for adding quirks to that character, and digging deeper into the mind of whomever they are attempting to embody.\u201d As soon as she is given a role, Sugg tries to understand her character and their personality better. Ever since she was cast as Lucy, she has, \u201c…tried to learn a lot about what it\u2019s like to be a four-year-old girl. Me and Milena Sigerson (III), who plays a series of roles in Mr. Marmalade, one of them being Lucy\u2019s mom, are supposed to go to the park and see how kids interact with their parents this weekend, which I hope will give us a lot of insight to our roles! I find it super helpful to try my\u00a0best to understand any character I\u2019m cast as.\u201d<\/p>\n

There are a few drawbacks, though. For example, the auditioning process is generally stressful for many actors and actresses. \u201cI\u2019ve tried out for shows and been cut, barely had a role, or just disliked the play I\u2019m a part of, but I\u2019ve never regretted auditioning for anything,\u201d Sugg added. \u201cEven if the show is not one I like, I usually end up having fun in it anyway. I like to try out for everything because it\u2019s really good to get experience auditioning, despite the disappointments. Mr. Marmalade is such an interesting show to be doing and I\u2019m so glad that I tried out for it! Rehearsal is always the best part of my day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sugg says she will consider a career in acting in later years, and she would also like to \u201cexperiment with other aspects of theater as well, such as directing and film.\u201d Aside from theater, Sugg likes to spend time filmmaking, drawing, singing, \u201cattempting to play guitar,\u201d and watching Friends.<\/p>\n

If she were to identify herself as a cookie Sugg said, \u201cI would be a frosted animal cookie with sprinkles because they\u2019re a kind of awkward unique cookie that\u2019s just chilling and doing their thing.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
