Teenage Black Box – Final Preparations

After months of rehearsing, we are finally getting through the final weeks of preparation. As mentioned in the flyer above, the plays will be held in City Ballet Black Box on the 4th and 5th of July at 8pm. It is in the Greentown Business Centre.

The tickets are priced at RM15.00. Contact PSPA for further enquiries. The tickets can be paid for upon entry but, they have to be booked earlier.

Those who book them through us MAY get a discount. No guarantees!

In short, it is a collection of short plays performed by the young people of Ipoh under the guidance of Sylvia Wong, organised by the Perak Society of Performing Arts (PSPA). You can look them up on Facebook as well.

Will update on how it goes.

 

Auditions!!

Veinnill went for this audition organised by PSPA. She was supposed to prepare a monologue. She used President Obama’s election night speech, edited by me (Nilaa, hehe) and gave her own speech as Malaysia’s first lady Prime Minister (it was our father’s idea).

The lady who auditioned her was soooo impressed. She had also asked Veinnill to read up a one-page-long script to check if she could understand quickly and act the part out.

She said that Veinnill had alot of potential although she was shy. Also, Veinnill had been one of the better participants. Yeh, Veinnill!!!

Noticing me standing at the side, the lady roped me in to do the audition as well. Since I hadn’t prepared anything, I was asked to do the script.

Therefore, now, I would also have to follow Veinnill for her weekly rehearsals for short plays as we agreed that we will be alright to take part in the same scenes. Will update the blog about any plays that she will be in.

Anyway, congrats and good luck to Veinnill. All her efforts are finally bearing fruit. Let’s hope she goes a long way.

PS: I’m pulling myself out as soon as possible!!!
