today I was walking alone and suddenly the BACK TO THE FUTURE car appeared and so i took a ride to the future....to the day that we are planning to see "RESPIRA". But since this is a blog, I'm going to write in past tense ok?
So, We went in a crazy bus full of crazy people (but lacking a fish) to see a play called Respira de Eduardo Adrianzén, and once again i HATED the play. The only thing I said WOW AMAZING was the lighting. The effect of the light blue light upon the actors in order to creat the idea of Water was great and the other thing that i liked was the character of Jesus. He was comic enough and it gived a twist to the play.
The reason why I hated the play was becuase at some point i said, they just look people saying a random text. They were not acting, not even trying. Whenever they faught the other person over reacted, however this helped me a lot becuase I think I tend to do that, like roll my eyes, or do some things we do becuase we really don't know what to do. That happened to me in the play, I did the same thing and in my head i thought: was doing that convincing enough!? or am i being so medieval and LOOKING angry just to let people tell that i'm angry.....??? the answer...NO, it looks completely fake and it makes the audience lose conection with what the play.
The other thing i didn't like and still wont like until i'm proven wrong "THE STUPID PROJECTOR!!! why on earth do people like to ruin plays by adding the stupid projections onn walls, and videos and stuff!! that doesn't happen!!! that only shows you were not able to think another way to portray your idea and that's why you use technology! NO PEOPLE!! that kills the play instead!. And in the case of this play, I think that was a scenery problem. So, uhm to my question before!!! well...I think sometimes people tend to think wrong ideas about scenery, if it was complete or not! but is something is not right then IT WILL BE SEEN, trust me.
Ok so, the acting sucked, scenery REKETE sucked...the spinning thing...uhm was it really needed?!ah! the story of the dad..and mom!? wtF* ...what was that got to do with all the story!? I think it took importance from teh main plot...and really that was the part of the play that became boring! I wanted to know more about the son, not the sex life of his parents. The other thing i noticed and said "ROBERTO TOLD ME NOT TO DO" was that the actors tend to speak and give the back to the audience....A LOT......then I think what was not good was the direction, the actors just stood there doing literally nothing more than talk! talkt! and TALK! make some actions people! move! use your body!!! express yourselves!!!! (muevete san borja! muevete!!! corre Lola Corre!!!
In conclusion! another play that sucked!!! but this plays help you a lot in the sence of WHAT NOT TO DO. So I find out that, overacting....not good, and not acting...NOT GOOD AT ALL. at least move, don't stay there and speak! if that happens it will only be vomiting the text, so don't. But the problem that keeps poping into my head ...whay will you do if the only thing that's on stage is you and chair? I know the answer I guess.....but I want to see more examples of this situation in order to be able to fully answer.
BACK TO THE PRESENT m' boys!!!!
