I gotta feeling! - BEP

One Act play big night!

Tonight is the night, w'ill live it up!!!

It was our big night today, and we were supposed to be ready at 1.30 to go to San Silvestre...however felipe and Claudia were not there, BUT becuase we are good patas......we lefts without them. (yup, i know...to actors less) So we arriv
ed at Santil and we began to get ready!. our scenery end up great, we tought it would not fit on quit good because it was a little bit to big, but in the end it was great. All the details of last minute made a decent scenery and i think the audience liked it. Anyway, Rupert asked us if we could go over some scenes so me and sebas ...we were his victims. Although this helped a lot because he reminded us about all the actions we had to do and we didn't do it....Finally Felipe and Claudia arrived (fiuf) and the team was complete. Now the actual thin really was about to start...Actually i was not nervous at all, and really i was confident..well i thought i was. I was ready of the last rehersale, we went over the play 2 times that makes a total of 6 times) and with that i notice and learned to hear my ib fieles. Not necesarily listen to them and LOOK at them but, just to listen and have all my sences ready for action according to the others.. this i notices when sebas had to say "hey flash" and he had to do it when sandra was right in front of claudia...and he really couldnt see her. I was...and at he did said when she was there...HOWCOME!? was it the MANY times we did it?! or was he used to lsiten to sandris foot steps!? or...he counted!? any way it was....he managed to do it..and it was pretty amazing.

Another thing I discover in this one act play, VOICE and MUTE is very different...we all agreed that doing you scene with voice was better thatn without it. In mute, we did it 100 times faster ....and sometimes we didn't pay attention to what we were doing....I, for example, felt that whenever i was acting as MUTE, i'll become diego inmediatly...i lost posture, attitude...nothing, it was ME sitting there..i was completely disconected!!! this might be because i was paying more attention to the other stands than to my actions ...but..uhm..

Until now, I was confident...however ruperts comment bleeeeew it all. "NO TE ENTIEEENDO NI UNA SOLA PALABRA"..."DIEGO" esto, "DIEGO" lo otro, "DIEGO" "DIEGO" "DIEGO"...and then i exploted...i didn't want to be around anybody, i went to my stand...will the audince be able to understaaaand me!? (roberto was right, i was not as good as i started)... i was thinking about all of that stuff, then came sebas and said: "dieguis!? que ahces aca! oe vamos!! no te preocupes"...and well, yup we were ready to kick some ass off right!?

THE PLAY: during the play...well they laughed the most at my stand and at felipes, however
...i was almost sure that they wouldn't laugh at me or sebas...maybe it was because we went through our scene so many times that the jokes were not funny, HOWEVER it was the total opposit!!! out scene was great! everybody loved it...and well... I realised that by that, i was relaxed...everybode else was sweatin but me..and that kept me thinking: why!?..why was I so confindet!?. I think it was because my personal goal was accomplished. LAUGH. I think that when you can make someone at least smile..you can die in peace.



In my case, i think the audience made me confident, however it was the first time we presented the play in front of the audience!!! that influenceed aa lot. Well, it is true that we did our scenes 200 times faster thaaan when we rehearsed but they didn't notice, only us and rupert...but the audience did was a major factor. I liked it, but i think rupert didnt. i guess it was 99% of our true potential...was it?. I felt that the one act play came out wwwaaaay better than lVeS. why is this!?, could it be the number of actors? time (was not, we had lest time), audience?, type of play?... anyway, i enjoyed it..and as i said to sebas: THE OSCARS GOES TO: CAPTAIN AND FLASH. jiji ...and you know it.

  1. Good food for thought: the role played by the incorporation of voice into your actions and your character.
