A bit about Zack...

Introducing Zack Myrick, our Conservatory Secretary!!

What are some of the shows you've done recently?
Over the summer I was in a production of The Taming of the Shrew at The Children's Theatre here in Salt Lake City. I was cast as Tranio. It was quite an experience. It was my first time doing a show out of the school setting and I learned that things definitely work differently. Like, I had a lot smaller of a voice in that production that I ever have had before. I also learned that there are different techniques being used out there than what I have been taught so I should learn more. 


If you could take anyone alive or dead out to eat, who would it be and where would you go?
Probably Eugene O'Neill. I would take him wherever he wanted which would probably not even let me in because he was such an alcoholic. I would just let him talk. Tell me about play ideas he never finished, how to correctly act his work, how to write so beautifully. 


What was your favorite movie as a kid? What is your favorite movie now?
As a kid? Politically correct answer? Toy Story. Politically Incorrect answer?(true answer) Scream. Yeah... Right now it would probably be... nope that question is far too difficult to answer. So many.


Favorite color?
Electric Blue


Who did you want to grow up to be like as a kid?
Brad Pitt


What is the first job you ever wanted to have?
Paleontologist 


If you could have been in any movie already made, what would it be and who would you play?
Probably Lord of the Rings. Just to see those sets and makeup and be in that world. I also thing I would have made an alright Frodo. ;) 


If you could be in the film adaption of any book, what would it be?
FABLEHAVEN! Claire should like this one. It would be so awesome to experience that entire mythology come to life on screen. 


Cats or dogs?
I just got a kitten!


Favorite book?
Let the Right One In. I know... it's a vampire book. BUT IT'S SO GOOD! 


If you could live within the universe of any book/movie, what would it be? (i.e., go to Hogwarts, become a Jedi...)
Either Stardust, Fablehaven, or yeah, Star Wars. 


Favorite ice cream flavor?
Boring vanilla. 


(PS: This awkward white background here? Yeah... don't know how to make it go away... Sorry!)

A bit about Adelle

Here's some cool things about our Vice President, Adelle Williams!

Tell us a bit about yourself

The top of my hair is dreaded and the rest isn't. That's interesting. My passion is directing. I listen to music a lot and I go to a lot of concerts. I'm not that great with talking about myself so this is going to end.

What are some of the shows and performances you've done?

I just did the sound for the dance department show, 198 Feet. That was interesting. I had a lot of fun once I learned exactly what I was doing because I went into it knowing absolutely nothing. It was a really great experience and I am really glad I was able to do it.

If you could take anyone living or dead out to eat, who would it be?

Anyone? Does an entire band count? Okay. Papa Roach because they are my absolute favorite band and they seem really awesome. I would take them somewhere that isn't fancy because they're a rock band and they don't do fancy restaurants and neither do I, and the food would have to be something really really amazing. I would tell them everything I love about their music and I would ask why they wrote certain songs and the motives behind their album titles. 

What was your favorite movie as a kid? What is your favorite movie now?

My favorite movie as a kid was The Lion King and my favorite movie now is Fight Club.

Favorite color?

I have two. Bright orange and dark blue.

What is the movie/artist/song you're embarrassed to admit you like?

I love all movies so there is no embarrassment there. With artists, I either like them or I don't. I kind of sort of just a little bit like Justin Bieber's song Boyfriend. It's gross.

Who did you want to grow up to be when you were a kid?

When I was a kid I wanted to be like Lars Ulrich, the drummer for Metallica. I thought that he was the coolest guy ever and I wanted to be just like him.

What was the first job you ever wanted to have?

I wanted my first job to be playing baseball because I thought it was the best sport known to man and I used to be really awesome at it.

If you could have ANY job in the world, what would it be?

I really wouldn't mind being a forensic investigator. 

If you could have been in any movie that's already been made, what would it be/who would you play?

Fight Club. I would be Tyler Durden because he's a total badass. 

If you could be in the film adaption of any book--whether or not it's been done before--what would it be/who would you play?

I could totally answer this with the same answer as the last one, but I won't. It would probably be the Anita Blake series and I would be Anita Blake because she is also a badass. 

Who would play you in a movie about your life?

Me. Because I don't like the idea of someone playing the role of me. It's weird.

If you wrote a novel, what would it be about?

Something gruesome. 

Cats or dogs?

Dogs. Definitely dogs.

Who was your imaginary friend? What were they like?

I don't remember the name of my imaginary friend, but I do remember that it was a she and she was so mean! I don't remember a whole lot, but I do remember how mean she was.

What is your favorite book?

Santa Olivia. 

What is the first book/movie/song that made you cry?

The Lion King was the first movie to make me cry. Pretty sure I cried a bit more than I should have.

If you could live within the world of any book/movie, what would it be? (i.e. go to Hogwarts, become a Jedi...)

Harry Potter. Is that not the ideal living space for a SPA kid?

Favorite ice cream flavor?

I don't like ice cream.

What first made you want to come to SPA?

 I loved theatre and I hated my middle school.

Anything else you want to say?

SPA has made me a much better person and I am so thankful for it. I am very grateful to be able to call myself a SPA kid.
