week 8: communitY: drama club

Drama club is about DRAMA!!! Drama in other words means acting. For the past few years I have been a part of this program, from Grade 3 to date!

The point of Drama is to build up your confidence on acting, and maybe one day you will become an actor yourself, all because of this program.

Well everyone has a goal on something, right? And my aim is to build up my confidence in acting, the “true” me, thought, can show myself only in my family. I think it is proven everywhere. Am I right?  Other goal is to have fun.

Before a Drama Show starts we have to have lots of activities, if we want to find the perfect person for a specific role. First we have our Team Building. We do activities that involve teamwork. We have to find everyone’s weak sport, to be individual or to work in a group.  If no one cooperates the whole show will be ruined, no one will understand. 

Next we have our Voice Development. Some are soft and some are strong. If the main characters have soft voice, how will the audience hear what’s the story about?  Our “Drama” teacher lets us improve our voice, so it is clear and heard by the audience.

Next she asks us what a theatre is. Everyone has their own meaning but I will tell mine.  A theatre is somewhere with a stage and seats for the actors to act and entertainment for the audience. No one wants something boring, I mean, what is the fun when there’s nothing to enjoy.
 
The last, but not the least is Stage Setup. Know what is “stage setup”? Well it is when you setup the stage, get prepared, ready for the play. Finally! Let us watch the show…
… That was Amazing! 
​
My previous plays, also favorite were ‘Save the Lofty Trees’, ‘Pied Piper of Hamlin’, ‘Pinocchio’, and ‘Peggy the Pint Sized Pirate’. But my most favorite one was ‘Save the Lofty Trees’.

You might be wondering, why I like drama club, well it is because of the fun, and other reasons that teachers do not want to hear! Well I will just say it; it is because sometimes, when it is just few days from the play we get to skip some periods of class. Sorry teachers, but that’s how I feel. Hehehe…
​
Now I want to know your opinion on this Topic. Here are your questions…  What shows would you like my school to do and why? If you performed at your school, how did your tummy felt like? If you had a chance to join this club, would you join, why or why not?
