The Brice Family ✤ Centre Stage
Antonio "Tony" Motta-Brice & Keegan Brice (dads; mid 40s) Carter Brice (31) Kaia Brice & Malia Brice (28/29) Mateo Brice (19) Carla Vasquez-Brice (15) Maci & Chelsie Brice (13) Zane Brice (12) Ava Brice (6)
Ages are based on season 1, all of them are adopted (Chelsie & Zane are full siblings, parents put them up for adoption when Zane was an infant), and Tony & Keegan adopt Beth at the end of season 1
As the only one who remembers her bio parents (she was 5 when they died, Carla survived a car accident and they didn't), Carla chose to hyphenate her last name to honour them and gets very annoyed when people only call her by one of them
Carter Brice is the same age as Josh St James and they've been friends for most of their lives, and Kaia & Malia Brice were high school friends of Amelie Kline, Lindsay Wright, and Franny Fabray
Carla has spent her life doing community theatre with both Josh and Shelby Corcoran and they're both part of the family, she also considers Jesse to be an honorary extra sibling, and there is always an extra bed at the Brice house for anyone who might need it, their children's friends are all considered family
After The Incident™, Carla's dads seriously discussed moving out of Lima, but that would have also involved moving four children 11 and under, so instead Carla asked if she could move in with her uncle Al and favourite cousin Sugar, and she lived with them until Al and his wife (Kamilah Motta) decided to get a divorce, which led her to finally returning to her dads and siblings for her sophomore year of high school

Why was this media particularly meaningful to ‘younger you’?
The two films I selected share a common plot theme - young characters face adversity and ultimately achieve success or fulfillment in their own unique ways. The plotlines in these films deviate from conventional happy endings, as neither character attains what the audience initially expected. These realistic stories resonated with me as a young person who was experiencing adversity in her own life. I also favored media depicting teenage protagonists experiencing their lives real-world settings, rather than fantasy or sci-fi genres. I appreciated stories and settings that directly related to my own life experiences, such as Centre Stage. Watching these stories unfold on screen felt like watching my own life, and I frequently rewatched these movies, possibly using them as a way to better understand my own life.

"Spider-Man" was the first feature-length film I ever watched. I was first introduced through the 1967 animated Spider-Man television series by my father. The live-action film became one of my favorites, leading to a Blu-Ray purchase! I cherished this film from childhood through to my adulthood, deeply connecting with the character and the story.Spider-Man undergoes various challenges and life lessons in the film, including grappling with his dual identity, grief, relationship issues, bullying, and the transition from high school to university. I can relate to these struggles, having experienced similar issues during my tween to teen years to varying degrees.
In my childhood, I yearned for superpowers like Spider-Man, expecting to acquire my powers eventually. However, I began experiencing early signs of an anxiety disorder instead. To cope, my father suggested viewing my anxiety as  "spidey-sense," providing yet another comforting link to my favorite superhero film (while also seeking professional help).

"Centre Stage" holds a special place in my heart and was a significant piece of media for my tween self. This film delves into themes like rejection in ballet, navigating relationships, eating disorders, and the struggles faced by dedicated artists. Its portrayal of ballet feels exceptionally authentic compared to many other dance-focused movies. Unlike many dance films that often follow a predictable plot of a ballet dancer longing to break free from ballet, "Centre Stage" stands out because its main character, Jodi, actually aspires for a career in classical ballet and heartbreakingly realizes she needs to transition away from it at the end of the film. Her journey involves struggling with her technical abilities and confidence, a storyline that resonates with me as a dancer who had her own insecurities. Unlike other ballet-focused movies such Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan or Netflix’s Pretty Little Things, "Centre Stage" focuses on ballet without the need for extreme drama or psychological thrills, making it suitable for teenagers.
This film served as a precursor to my eventual decision to step away from my own aspirations of a professional ballet career. In the final scene, Jodi is shown confronting the School of American Ballet's program director, bravely asking him to not tell her if she was accepted into the company or not, realizing that her unique talents wouldn't be fully recognized in a classical ballet setting. She reclaims her agency by choosing a smaller contemporary dance company where she can thrive as a top-ranking dancer. This powerful moment resonated with me, helping me appreciate my own unique strengths as a dancer and come to terms with my shift away from pursuing ballet professionally.
youtube
Ryan Higa was one of the first YouTubers I ever watched. Following the linear-television-to-online-videos pipeline (Steemers, 2021), I became less interested in my usual TV programs and borderline obsessed with YouTube videos around the years 2007 and on. As a teenager, I found traditional TV less engaging and was drawn to the relatable content created by young YouTubers like Higa, who was about 17 at the time he first started posting videos.  Unlike typical television content made by adults portraying their childhood and adolescence fantasies, Higa's videos were refreshing and relatable for young viewers like me (Steemers, 2021). His fast-paced, absurd, and occasionally inappropriate parodies provided a level of humor and relatability that traditional TV lacked. Higa's content became a significant part of my conversations with friends, leaving us with memorable quotes and catchphrases like "Sham-woo-hoo!"

CENTRE STAGE- 2000 ⭐️⭐️
Tumblr media
TOO MUCH DANCING!
Twelve of the best ballet dancers from across the country get into a prestigious dance academy where they compete to be the best and to impress theyre instructors.
Some of the scenes when they got to go out and have fun on the town were a bit fun but most of the film was filled with dance sequences that go on far too long which is boring.

Carla Vasquez-Brice ✤ Centre Stage
If Carla Vasquez-Brice never saw Rachel Berry again, it would be too soon. After facing the worst experience of her life thanks to Rachel's dangerous selfishness, Carla had packed up her life, left her home, and moved to Akron to live with her Uncle Al, Aunt Kamilah, and cousin Sugar. It was better, it was. Thanks to Josh and Shelby, Vocal Adrenaline and Jesse, and her siblings' endless support, Carla was healing. She could step onstage again, she had relearned how to perform, she was okay. But when she finds herself moving back home, back to Lima, just in time for sophomore year, she's terrified. Lima means McKinley High, McKinley High means Rachel Berry. She's safe, as a Cheerio. Popularity becomes a shield that even Rachel Berry can't get past. Maybe, just maybe, Carla was going to be okay. Or so she thought, until Coach Sylvester demands that her four star cheerleaders spy on the New Directions from within.
