Learn About History With A Harriet Tubman Performer

By Brenda Scott


Whenever you are taking a vacation, it is always nice to go somewhere that is highly unique and different than anywhere else you could go back home. Particularly if you are going to anywhere in Auburn, New York, which many know as the historic birthplace as well as the final resting place of this historic woman, not to mention anywhere that lies along the original Underground Railroad, then you will definitely want to see if there is a harriet tubman performer in the area. It can do a lot to add more meaning to the fun trip that you are having.

Performers like these definitely have to have a lot of experience in order to do this kind of a job right. You might think that it would be easy to get up on a stage or stand around in a historic town and spout out facts and imitate the mannerisms of a person from history, but there is so much to it that can go wrong. The most experienced of actresses are able to make this look easy, which is why you will definitely want to go with a seasoned veteran to play such an important part.

When you are playing this kind of a role, it is a very good idea to take the time to do your research and really learn what this woman had to go through, not to mention what she chose to do in order to go above and beyond. Once you know what she went through, you can then try to imagine what it would actually be like to be put in that scenario for yourself. This does so much to add depth to your reenactment.

Without the right outfit, it would be impossible to play this part right. Choosing to do a period piece means investing in a lot of props and costumes that look like they are from that right period in time. Sometimes, it might be nice to make the costume yourself to add deeper meaning to them.

It is always so much more fun to learn about history when you have it played out in front of you. Having young people understand the terrible realities of slavery in the United States is important now more than ever. In order to have this information sink in and truly have meaning, it is nice to see it acted out.

Some performers specialize in theater performances where they memorize lines and act out scenes on a stage. Other times, you might be part of an interactive show where people ask you questions. Knowing which type of act this is helps you to prepare for what you need to get everything just right.

Nothing is more important than learning all of your lines properly. It is horrible to have the illusion broken for the audience when you fumble over a word or break character. Even in the event of messing up, it is the recovery that really matters the most.

Staying hydrated is one thing that anyone would recommend to a person playing this part. Depending on how it is played, it can end up being very physical. Not to mention when you are in a heavy costume in the hot sun, things can get sweaty very quickly.
