27 February 2012 (Monday)


Again Theatre class, what are we going to do today? Question marks appear on my mind but pity me and Vhina can't manage to catch the bus because the train is late. HATE IT! And we took a taxi that cost us RM6 each. SAD!

We used the back door of the classroom again not because it is closed but the doorknob haven't repaired. "Good service" from Taylor's University. As usual, Mr. Rey asks us whether we've any problem for the assignment and also as usual we didn't answer him. HAHA! He also told us that better to have a script because we can speak our own language that he not really know most of it, so he needs a translation HAHA! Besides, he also gives us examples about the assignment.

After that, warm up time and very fast we go into the main point of the class. Today almost the whole day is about "status" acting. Mr. Rey split us into 2 groups and each group will have the chance to play both of the "status" and that is the "high status" and the low status". At 1st, Mr. Rey calls us to walk around and the 1st group will act as the gangster status. The 1st group people gonna pick the 2nd group people then do anything that gangster do to the weak people. YEAH! I never do this before and is so fun. After that, the 1st group turn to a smart ass people but didn't look down on the 2nd group people instead comfort them and encourage them. OMG! This is quite hard because I'm not a smart ass and I really don't know how to convince him. Now we switch status and the 2nd group now is the rich people whereas us the 1st group is the poor people. This condition is the rich guy doesn't look down on us but they willing to help us anything they could help.

Next exercise, we need a block for 2 person and then Mr. Rey gave us a short script paper and he says that 1st group, the salesman is "high status" whereas the customer is in "low status", 2nd group is the opposite way. So, me and my partner Eric we practice through the script 1st and then with more emotion. Next, Mr. Rey change the condition and he wants the 1st group people, those with the "low status" gradually change to the "high status" whereas the 2nd group is in the opposite way.

Ya! Me and Eric will gonna be the good one. So we practice practice and practice and when is our turn we improvised actually. LOL! At 1st , I act as a customer that is in the "low status" and I want the salesman to show me the ring but he seems like doesn't even care about me and also look down at me. After he showed me the ring, I told the salesman that this ring doesn't suits my wife and I also told him that I gonna have a wedding and my budget for the wedding ring is RM 5 million. The salesman shocked and he changed his viewpoint in a sudden. Of course, I also try to make fun of him. I kept switching my decision for the wedding ring and I pick the most expensive ring that worth about RM 10 million. The salesman asks me whether I pay through cash or card. Of course is card and we want it to end it with the bill went through but Mr. Rey changed our condition that is the credit can't pass through. Ok then, I use the other credit card also can't pass through. WHAT!!?? The salesman tells me that when I've enough money only come and purchase back the ring. And that moment, I really don't know what response to give so I just HMPH! End scene!

Class end!
