" Madam, your mother craves a word with you"
" Mary bachelor, her mother is the lady of the house and a good lady..."
Even though the 'play' is over, these lines in the script Romeo and Juliet will always be etched in my mind. This is my second time acting and I act as the role of a nurse in Romeo and Juliet. From this 'play', I now realized that being an actress is not an easy job at all. I have to memorize the lines beforehand, and while saying my lines, I have to have emotions in it or else it will be monotone. In order for me to act out my role as a nurse, whenever I rehearse with my group members, I will always try to think that I am really a nurse so that I can act out more naturally in my role as nurse. I find my role quite easy to act as compared to the other members who acted Capulet, Tybalt, Romeo and Juliet. After that Thursday-the actual day of the 'play', I personally felt that I fare greatly. I did not forget my lines as I usually might do during rehearsals and I also felt that my group fare greatly too as everyone did their best and put in their emotions while saying their own lines, especially Liang Wei. It was a really great success considering all the hard work we have done.
During rehearsals, there are hiccups on the way. One example is that all of us cannot meet up as a whole group as we are all very busy with our ccas and our studies. Another thing is that when a person forgets his/her lines while acting, we will have to rehearse it all over again, so this takes a lot of time. However, overall, we still managed to overcome all these hiccups.
In my opinion, I would recommend this program to my juniors as this program can help those quiet ones to speak out more and they will further understand how important teamwork is.
Through this program, I would really like to thank Mrs Woo on helping and guiding us on how to go about acting in Romeo and Juliet.
