We do it all for ou Pleasing an audience is crucial to performers in competition when judges are included leasing an audience can be especially trying when that audience includes a judge. For then the outcome is more crucial because a judge may be in the position to make or breakn a future career. However, students in the band, choir, and drama departments were accustomed to performing before judges through a variety of competi- tive events ranging from All'State tryouts to speech tournaments. Senior Gina Fortenberry, who was band majorette for two years, said that judges can be helpful to a performer. You always want to do good for any audiencefl she said, but when you know that you are being judged it makes performing a lot more nervous. The best thing l know to do is just relax and do your best.'l Gina added that the judges' decisions represent only their opinions. They can help you by the advice they give, she said. But they all have different opinions about what you may need to improve on. But a judge's opinion is important, Gina said, because since they don't know you they'll tell you the truthf' Gina credited the band for helping prepare members for com- petition. The band gets you ready for all the mishaps you hope never will happen, she said. Accidents do happen, but you have to go on with the show. The band also helped build my confidence, Gina continued. lt gave me support every time I went on the field to twirl, and that really helped. - By Denise Clay DANCING DOLLS - Drama II dance students loosen up to the tune of an uptown beat.
