tamasha term one

In Tamasha term 1 I learnt that i can use my voice in a play. I also learnt that a play can be done by reading a script. We did with some voice practice  and a lot of games.This encourages me to read more book. I found the i am here was cringy as we were running and some people over took me. I liked my role as Chronicler and i found myself doing nothing in section G. I found myself hating the idea of getting in and out of the circle.

THE WORLD OF VOICES

Day one of my theater performance, I acted in the production called the World of Voices . I put in my best effort in it. What I wanted to do was to project my voice so the audience could hear me. After all the production is called the world of voices.  All the actors were told to say the word "I AM HERE" with their own chosen emotion. Even the sad and shy should be heard. I tried to do a confused for "I AM HERE" so that I can try to be heard while i'm doing a soft emotion. There were no mics (for me) which gives me an advantage as I can throw my voice to the audience.  For the MISSING SOUND I was city voices, sound spirit, parent and all.  The missing sound is about a city that lost its sound.  City voices and sound spirit was the role my most lines, I did not like it as I don't like poetry but I accepted it as even if I did't like it I feel like I can't choose.  The INSTRUCTOR told me to present poetry. I played a  parent was the one who is anxious...

THE GIRL WHO DRANK THE MOON

Day two of the Tamasha production in March 2026, this time its adapted by a story book “ THE GIRL WHO DRANK THE MOON ”. I found it boring as I did not understand what the plot was about. No one told me. However I understood the emotions of characters in the production. I acted both extremes of anger and calm. I was also casting magic. I felt I did a good job as I tried my best to project these emotions to the audience instead of just reading the script. I was also trying to make eye contact with the audience and tried to make eye contact with my co-actors. I tried making eye contact as it makes me look like I'm talking to the audience. Apart from just acting I was trusted with an additional role. Instead of waiting back stage, I was tasked to play the gong as a audio queue to the performing actors in other scenes. The two characters I player were  sister Ignita  and  The Cronicular and chorus of relief fear and pain. Sister Ignatia was inflicting pain and demands obedien...

bear eraser (Object Theatre)

On 30th November 2025, I acted as  a bear eraser.  It was  another production of  Tamasha's. Its the Weight of Small Things play. I did almost everything by myself.  I wrote the script and planed how I will enter and exit all by myself.  I acted as a cute bear eraser and my monologue was about its life. My goal was simple get the audience engaged and make sure they find my piece interesting. I tried my best to engaged audience and to interacted with them in the beginning.  I asked them a question so that they would think i'm intracting withthem and pay close attention.  I also tried not to rush through my lines so they can listen to me clearly.  I tried to make facial expressions to match emotions.  My monologue went well as I did not rush and my interaction with audience. Things that challenged me was trying not to get distracted by a baby who cried once. I noticed it but did not let it affect my acting. I learnt that acting takes time...

The World We Live In - My first theater play

Image
My first theater play was at Play Den. I felt calm but when I got to the venue I felt excited  as we had been training for three and a half  months. I liked my role as a sporty, kind and playful Shafiya.  There are 2 main reasons  1: i like playing cricket and Shafiya is a bats lady in cricket 2:i like her personality she is playful,understanding and kind friend to Amara, Anaya, Althea, Nadia and Dadu.  And that is my main role there is still more. My 2 minor roles were as a scam officer and love are still my minor roles. 1. scam officer:as a scam officer I think I could have been the best officer but I was not as I held the “stop think don't get tricked scams are fast don't u click poster upside down.” 2. Love: I think did good as I did not say my line while others did as the teacher did not give any odor like who to go first so on so forth.  Now my ensemble roles I have 2 1. marching role:i tried not laughing as the senior put the anger sash any how but I...
