How do you bring expression while performing on stage?
The use of expression is most important when performing on stage. The key idea to remember is to exaggerate facial expressions, as when audiences watch, they are watching from a distance, so they need to be sure what it is you are trying to express. The trick here though, is not to look silly when trying to exaggerate. Watch actors closely, they have to develop this as a performer. Just get some old movies, like Elvis Musicals or even 'Gone with the Wind'. These movies show over acting, but also the subtleness required when expressing on stage. Apply your new knowledge and I am sure you will do a great job.

Sue Klein was born in London. She first discovered her love of music, through the recorder at the tender age of 7 and at 12 went to the Royal Academy of Music where she studied Flute and Piano. She says she would have continued with the Recorder had lessons been available but at that time, they weren't. Now she teaches Recorder in a primary school and the renowned Pimlico Special Music Course at Pimlico School, and has a thriving private teaching practice, teaching both Recorder, to college entrance level, and Piano. She has performed quite widely , though now concentrates on her teaching which she enjoys enormously. She teaches the Recorder Ensemble at St John the Divine Primary School and to other talented recorder playing children. This Ensemble now has over twenty members, and has recently performed at the South Bank as participants in the Lambeth Festival. She also gives piano lessons and is enjoying her new instrument, the clarinet, and playing Klezmer.
Was John Lennon a kleptomaniac?
He MAY (hard to prove) have stolen some instruments in the early Beatles days. A cheap guitar from the era was found stashed in the attic of his Aunt Mimi's home recently. There is also the legend of the Beatles playing a "battle of the bands" and he stole another band's acoustic guitar.
But back in the early, struggling days of the group, all of them were known to be somewhat light-fingered from time to time - and they were probably no different from other groups in the same boat. George Harrison once bought an amplifier, and when asked what it cost him, replied "A pound down, and the rest when they catch me".
Which song did Paul write that John hated?
Probably quite a few but the most famous one that John hated was Maxwell's Silver Hammer that he refused to play on and described as 'more of Paul's f***ing granny music'.

Who were John Lennons parents?
John Lennon's parents were Alfred Lennon and Julia Stanley Lennon. They separated when he was a baby, but were never officially divorced. (He did not see his father from the age of four, until after he became famous.) After Alfred and Julia separated, Julia started a new relationship with John "Bobby" Dykins. When the social services discovered that young John was sharing a bed with Julia and her new partner, it was agreed that John would move in with Mimi Smith; Julia's sister and John's aunt. (It turned out later that Mimi herself had informed on Julia.)
Julia visited Mimi nearly every day, and had two more daughters, Julia and Jacquie, with Dykins. (People began to call her "Mrs. Dykins", and she never corrected them, the same as Mimi never corrected anyone who called her John's mother, or him her son.)
Julia played four-string banjo (which she learned from Alfred) and sang, and later taught John banjo chords for his guitar. She also had an unusual sense of humor (wearing glasses with no glass in them to see who would notice, and wearing underwear over her head instead of a bandana, when she did housework), which John picked up, and he said later she was more like an older sister to him, than a mother.
John grew up being told his mother lived "far away", but learned later her house was just a few minutes' walk from Mimi's. He began visiting her in his early teens, then spending weekends and nights after fights with Mimi with the Dykinses.
He was on one such visit when Julia was struck and killed by a drunk driver, in July 1958. The police came to the house; Dykins broke down at the news, and seventeen-year-old John had to go with the police to identify her body.
John had met Paul McCartney not long after Paul had lost his own mother to cancer; John told him then if anything happened to Julia, "I'd go off me head." He proceeded to do just that, and began to abuse alcohol, and take his frustrations at losing her out on the world, including his girlfriends. (He said later "I lost her twice"; once at four, and again at seventeen.) The fact that both John and Paul lost their mothers young made them closer. John's boyhood friend Pete Shotton, who'd also known Julia, recalled later just one brief conversation about her death: "I'm sorry about your mum." "I know, Pete." They never spoke about it again; John preferred it that way.
John remembered his mother in the song "Julia", ten years after her death. The song also included images of Yoko Ono, who was the first woman he'd met that he felt as comfortable with as he had his mother. (He called Yoko "Mother" later in life, after the birth of their son Sean.) John expressed his pain at his parents' absence in his life in his song "Mother", and Julia's death in the deceptively simple "My Mummy's Dead".
He continued to refer to Julia as "Mummy" privately, until the day he died.
