Life is dull, only drama is colourful.

And yes, it is yet another day of rehearsing and another meeting with mrs kamal.
After a relaxing holiday in bali, i almost forgot all my lines! (Sorry Prakash!)
Today we did the same drama experiment again.
Blindfolded, with a slightly altered space and Afiqa and Sofihah calling the emotions.
We experimented with Longing, Realization, Anger, Scary, Happy and Curious for the lines today.
The blindfold effect did not work as nicely as in the MPS because the freshness of the experiment was lost. Instead we tried something different.
We played a game for group dynamics.
Prakash and I had to sit back to back and get up mainintaing body contact. We then had to move around the room and constantly allow different parts of our body to touch at different instances. (perverted as that may sound it only involves hands and legs and backs).
The whole idea was to forge a common throughline to show that both of us are actually the same character and make it clear to the audience that both actors are one character.
After the rehearsal, my idea is that we use a choral effect for the first lines of
"i have come to realize of late that dreaming has become the center of my life"
As we do that "ritual" to symbolize that we are one, finally ending off with both of us saying the line.
It will include the fade in and out effect we wanted as well.
That's all for my touchy touchy experiment. More to come with other rehearsals! Ciao!
The actor froze at 4:28 AM
