Jamiel "Jamee" Creer was a senior at Maumelle High School when her play was selected for the 2015 Competition. This fall, Jamee, 18, is a freshman at Ouachita Baptist University.Question: Describe your play.
Answer: My play, "Used", is about a girl who finds the meaning of life from a twisted group of people who lost their way in life.
Q: What do you like about writing?
A: I like the thought of creating a new world and inspiring others with just a pen in my hand and measly piece of paper.
Q: What do you like about theatre?
A: I love that I can step into someone else's shoes and become someone else.
Q: What is your favorite play or musical and why?
A: My favorite musical is "Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street", not just because of the dark storyline, but because of the well-written music and the twist ending.
Q: What has been an interesting or weird or funny experience in writing your play and rehearsing it?
A: Well, my cast made a parody of the song "Feeling Myself" by Beyoncé in order to make light of my dark play. My cast is great, and they're motivated to win, not only for me but because they've worked so hard.
Q: What has been your favorite experience in being a part of theatre in your school?
A: My favorite experience with the Maumelle High School drama department is that everyone works to be the best they can be, and also we work towards being a great theatre family.
Thanks, Jamee, and we can't wait to see your play on Nov. 14 at The University of Central Arkansas!
