Learning Log 7

The past few months has been pretty hectic while my group was preparing for the 'big day' of Romeo and Juliet performance. Luckily, there were no hiccups during the actual day and my group members were able to perform up to expectations. I remembered our first few rehearsals were a bit messy. However, after the fifth one, we were already confident with the acting part due to the hard work put in with the cooperation from each one of us to memorise our lines by the given date. Then, we decided to focus on the props as there were alot of things to buy and prepare. Things such as background music, backdrop and things that were to be put on the table were all carefully considered. There were also extra stuff that we managed to put up as we had time. The last part we focused on was the costumes and masks. We wanted to make sure that at least some of our costumes are more outstanding than other group's ones. Although there were bickering and quarrels during rehearsals, we worked as a group and managed to set things straight. There are more important things which needs to be accomplished. Hence, we set aside our differences. I have learnt to be more responsible after this whole experience and my gosh what a memorable journey it has been. If we have delayed even the slightest things, we may be behind other groups. I want to thank all my actors and actress for making the opportunity to lead you all as the director and being so kind. I will surely miss the times we had together. The whole thing is absolutely amazing because now we know what it feels like performing in front of a live audience...
