Rehearsal Notes - Labor Day, NOT

Labor Day, Yippeeee~!!!

Not for us. We're laboring. We're working. HAHA.

Majority of us arrived at around 10am, and we were down to work.

Rey was looking at the theater 101's show first. After what happened yesterday, looks like they really bucked up :)

Then it was our turn. We were one of the groups that he wanted to see. So we went back in, set up the stage and got started.

But before we got started, Rey told us that he wanted Teck Sern to be a lot more dramatic, almost comical in fact. Rey wanted him to move more, add some more exaggerated hand expressions and be a lot more crazier.

So we did. He acted a lot more, "bitchier", more comical and exaggerated. When I said Pictionary, he acted as if he got hit by some bullet and fell on the floor. He acted like a little kid. It was hilarious. I couldn't help but let out a couple of giggles when I acted next to him. Because it was just so silly! It really brought in the once nonexistent humor into the play.

But of course, the most important part of the play was the break down. We didn't work on that much because he already did worked with us on that part. But we did work on it.

Because of the shortage of time, we had to move out to allow other groups to work in the theater. Teck Sern and I moved out somewhere else and worked on our beginning bit.

Later on that day, we had a full dress rehearsals too. Laced in the end with a curtain call where all the casts and crews comes out to take a final bow.

Oh one more thing! When Teck Sern and I were doing our play, the ceiling light broke. It broke right above us, when we were doing our last scene. OMG it was scary. I thought a balloon popped. HAHA. You couldn't see if there's any glass shard, because there was only one piece on the floor. I immediately took action, and got those wearing shoes to get the shoes for those who are barefoot. Phew Thank God nobody got hurt. It'll be a disaster. But of course, there goes some of the plays. We have to now either with the yellow lights and the ambient lights or the working lights.

OBVIOUSLY, it'll be the yellow lights :D
