I did that at camp and everyone started singing "Take Me Or Leave Me" even some counselors!
I have more!
At camp you and your friends start singing "La Vie Boheme" and yell out "TO MARIJUANA!" (yes I did that) and other people go "What the heck!"
~You were going to do "Over The Moon" for a talent show at a Christian Camp (unfortunately I had to leave early)
~At said camp, you begged a counselor to let you borrow their RENT CD and played "Take Me Or Leave Me" as loud as you could.

Oh yes. I definitely use my stage voice everywhere - including offstage. Just today I was jokingly interrogating my friend about something and realized i was nearly yelling. That's just how we actors are, eh?
I definitely think that talking loudly is list worthy:
- You project even when offstage - so much that is has become an nuisance to strangers and an embarrassment to your friends.
Haha. Yes. This one is definitely one of my big problems. That and the random bursting into song thing, and the whole everytime someone says something that happens to be a line in a song or show, I follow it up with the next stanza or line, along with a huge number of things thats been on here. My mom makes fun of me all the time for being a "Theater person". She is the person pointing and explaining my wild actions in public.

Re:You Know You're A Theatre Kid If... - 2007/08/04 22:36haha, all of those are completely ME, and SOO COMPLETELY TRUE!!! I just had a performance today (actually, a compeition, which makes it even weirder) and i ended up like kissing a guy (one of my competitors) before he went on stage!! and after the two hours of knowing each other, everybody ended up like hugging each other like we were all best friends for the past 2 years!! what is it with theatre people an hugging!!!???
might i add::
-you end up failing two or more classes because you either skip class to talk to your chorus teacher about ideas for the show, or because you sleep thru class because tech week is coming up soon and you need your sleep!!
-every thing you say has a song to go with it, and you're perfectly OK with singing that song in public
-you ''street perform'' for extra cash, at the entrence of Wal*Mart (singing songs from you're latest show)
