As some of you may know. I was at KLPac just now to perform for . [singlepic=21,450,,,center] [singlepic=20,450,,,center] I was in two short skits () one called Stuck by Glamorique and another called Red:A modern Day Fairytale by Calvin Wong. The thing with tonight…I was totally taken aback when i found out, that there were to be only two performances. See it’s suppose to be whoever that has a script they send it in for the month and perform it for people to see. But it’s quite sad that the people sending in scripts was so little. In the end it was only two performances…which was not knew to me, but had me both in them. On one hand i felt terrible because, it made me feel like such a stage hogger. But on another, I liked seeing it as a ‘platform’ where I could test myself and see has there been any differences since taking on Joe’s class. I will say that the classes have given me tools in order to figure out how to create a character and perform it better on stage. But as for my confidence…. oooo I need to buck up. :sniff: The night started off rather interesting with Glam’s campy comedy piece on the two Siamese Twins of different sexes, where I played the Talk show host who was so full of herself, Cherilyn Su. I’ll be evaluating myself here and I will say that I did not play her to my best abilities as I know I could have. Problem was I think the nervousness of being in two plays and the paranoia that both might have been bad, must’ve gotten to me. So yes I admit to pre-performance anxiety. But where I maybe had not done fantastically, the main characters of the show Valerie and Glam were great ^_^ . Their punchlines were on the dot and Glam played his character as the over the top transexual male twin funnily. Hahaha As for Red, despite the fact that we had set the setting of the piece in New York… It was quite funny that we had gamelan music playing in the background, which was completely off as the crowd was distracted for a bit. I am happy though that what was performed turned out slightly better than what i had thought, though I was not expecting people to laugh cause it’s not meant to be a funny piece! However i suppose the reason for the laugh is because, Marvin and I managed to play the truth of our characters. Even if his cab driver character was a psychopath, with bad intentions and wanted to kill my character, Carmen. Overall I think it was a nice run, but if i ever got to perform it again, I think with more rehearsals it could be massively improved. And thanks a lot to Calvin Wong for writing the script So in conclusion, on my performance, I’m partially happy cause I know I can do better. I’m happy at the fact that during rehearsals there was a lot of thought put out for building the different characters for both pieces. Though I shall admit that i had put more thought into my character Carmen in Red because while it’s a simple piece of a girl riding in a cab. There was a lot going on with her. She’s new in a city filled with possible nutcases, yet she still thinks that everyone is like in her town in Maine, that is all happy and talkative. As for the acting as the talkshow host, I gave it as best as I could for just now. I had practiced as much as possible, but I believe it could’ve been better. That’s ok, it’s a learning process and that was a great one, putting theory and practical stuff from class into practice. What I just need on my end next time, is to be calm, take a moment and prepare myself way more. Since I know I need more time to get into a character, rather than just pop..whee I’m in character. DOesn’t work that way. But the night was a fun one ^_^ and I got to take pics. Heheh. I was very appreciative that Collin Kirton, Joanna Bessey and Chris Ling were in the crowd. Although i will say pressure was felt haha. Hey when you have veterans/directors of the art in the crowd, you better do well. [singlepic=22,450,,,center]
