This is me posing in my character. My character is Jack he is the hero from Titanic, he is the person who discovers that captain left and Jack (me) is going to try and save everyone from dying.
This is Jack and Rose (Me and Tereza), we are lovers in the play, we have a bit of a fight towards the end - but that is only because we care about each other. This pose is taken from the scene where Jack is saying goodbye/ when he is drowning.
This is a group photo before we performed, I remember we were so anxious. Starting from left is Abdullah: he was the captain's helper/slave ( the henchman), then there is Ahmed: he was the captain ( the villain), then there is me: I'm Jack (the hero, and finally there is Tereza who is Rose (the damsel in distress)
This is a scene in the play when I'm thinking of what to do to save the people in the ship from dying.
This is another scene in the play where I was arguing with the man (Abdullah) blocking the third class people from going on the lifeboat, straight after that I had a fight with him and pushed him into the ocean.
This is the beginning part when I'm listening to the captain (Ahmed) and the henchman (Abdullah) talking about the boat and the captain leaving.
This is the final group photo that we took after we finished out performance, as you can see we are much more relaxed and happy. As well I put on a different shirt and had a mustache drawn on me with crayons.
This was just a selfie that Tereza and I took after out performance, I don't even know what kind of face I was supposed to make ( messed up)
Reflection
I really enjoyed this topic and especially doing this play, I personally think it went better than last melodramatic play we did because we got to use our imagination and creativity a lot. I personally loved the proms we had and I adored my mustache, I didn't want to take it off although it was very itchy. I think my class mates enjoyed watching our performance because I could hear them laughing and I received a lot of compliments when we finished. However it was quite challenging for me because since I was Jack and I was a male character, I couldn't have a high pitched voice or sound like a girl, so I had to put and manly voice, which was hard to keep it throughout the whole play and not laugh, but I managed to do it. It was also hard to not laugh when I had my little argument with Tereza about Jack going with Rose in the lifeboat even if there was no more space, it was really fun because I couldn't take her seriously but I didn't laugh, as well that was my favorite part. Also we received a lot of compliments when we went at the back of the stage and had a conversation but using different kinds of voices (tones) which was really fun to do and the people watching it enjoyed it. Unfortunately we messed up a part which, we did get right in rehearsals but didn't get right when on stage, and this scene was when we had to fall all together because the ship hit the ice berg. We had sounds/effects to go with that scene but Abdullah forgot to play them on time, so we just stood there for some time while he remembered and pressed them, But other than that I loved acting this play because I got to be very loud (which I am) and got to exaggerate and look silly.
