About Me

Hi guys! I'm Caroline Fishbein. I'm a freshman and a day student. I did a couple of musicals in middle school and also do volleyball. I also was in chorus and concert choir for my school which was really fun. I live in Southington and went to Depaolo Middle School, which is one of the two public middle schools in the town. 

One interesting thing about me is that I absolutely love the musical Hamilton. I was introduced to the play at the end of sixth grade and have been addicted to the music ever since. The cast is so talented, and they really tell a story. I went to see the play with my mom and aunt in New York City on July 29th this past summer. It was awesome! The show was amazing, but I went to the stage door at the end of the show, and was in the front for the signatures. I got signatures 5 from some of my favorite people in the cast! It really was a dream come true!

I also have been playing volleyball for a little while now. I'm a beginner at the sport...I'm not that good. But I plan on working at trying to get better this year and hopefully will try out for the volleyball team here at Cheshire Academy next fall. I did a camp this summer at Cheshire High School to build some basic, fundamental skills. It also was a good confidence booster. I did it with a couple of friends of mine which also made it really fun. Attacking the ball is my favorite skill, so I enjoy working on that and all the other skills.

I am also my toughest critic. I seek perfection, which sometimes isn't a great thing. Sometimes, I drive myself crazy, in terms of studying or projects and homework assignments. I just want to do the absolute best that I can, so I guess that's where I get it from. That's why it's sometimes fun in theater to just be someone else, where I can forget all the responsibilities that I have. I use acting as an escape from the real world where there's so much going on. It allows me to relax and just have fun and it's what I really love doing.

This year, I really hope to just grow as an actress. I am ready to take on uncomfortable challenges and want to be outside my comfort zone. I want to pick up new skills that I haven't been taught before, and hopefully implement them in my performances. I really love musicals since I love singing and dancing, and I know how much of an impact they have on the audience. Theater not only brings me a lot of joy, it also brings other people joy. That is why I love being apart of the theater community.

The Caucasian Chalk Circle Review

For my first season at Cheshire Academy, I was apart of the stage crew of the fall play. The name of the play is The Caucasian Chalk Circle, written by Bertolt Brecht. I worked at all the shows November 9-11, 2017 in the Black Box Theater of Cheshire Academy. For our school's production of the play, Mr. Aronson directed and some of the main characters include Grusha, Simon, Azdak, Natella Abashwili, the Singer, and Michael. The plot of this show is told by the Singer, who doesn't actually sing. Grusha, a peasant servant of the royal Natella Abashwili, finds Michael Abashwili, who is the royal heir, in the midst of the war that her fioncé is fighting in. Michael is found alone and forgotten about. She takes him and flees the dangerous area as she intends to keep him safe. Over the course of the first act, Grusha tries to avoid running into Natella and her armed forces who are rapidly looking for the child. Grusha adopts the child, and finds ways to get him food and shelter. The ...
