The Revival Spiral issue #2
This theatre production group that I'm currently involved with suddenly agreed to my jokingly suggesting of changing the script. I had asked a friend to help me with the training last night since I have a make-up class. After we have finished with the training session, he starts to talk about the script that he wrote and which will be staged by his production group. From what I hear I thought it was a bit like the Theatre of the Absurd - him being influenced by Samuel Beckett I suppose. Then we got round to me telling my story - my acting troupe loved it and they were unanimous and adamant they want it to be staged. I think to a certain extent I do feel, sort of... honored and proud that they love my story and they want to use it. The problem is however, we only have two week's worth of training session and that is not especially the thing that I want to hear. For one, I still lack much knowledge about staging a play, directing, the lot. It is very much like asking a 12-year old child to crack the Da Vinci's code; you know you'll never get the right answer, but certainly an answer in the most plausible, colorful, creative way that you'd never dare to imagine. To be frank honest, I don't have at my disposal the best of acting troupe but I am really amazed at their level of interest (although there was nothing much about their commitment for some of them to talk home about); their enthusiasm to be a part of the theatre-acting movement thing is just wonderful - because now that I know that they are all for the cause among themselves I can just skip the boring and tiring training routine and play computer games. I have not attended three thousand hours worth of computer games session which should keep me occupied in front of my computer for two good weeks. I don't need to go out and buy food because by that time I'll be in the hibernating mode; I'll just chew off the fat bits from my stomach area and my thigh area. I suppose it will be sufficient to keep me alive for two weeks before I come out from my room and it was already the judgment day. And my girlfriend had dumped me and are dating a giraffe instead.
Right.
