Completion of the Graduation Shows

The graduation shows reached completion tonight,fianlly!! There were no absent seats,and the audience laughed out loud and applauded ardently, I felt so encouraged.

I remember I was very nervous in our first show, and then I felt at ease once when I became very familiar with the timing of the show. Each time the actors may have a bit different movements and the speed of speaking,so to have an unspoken consensus is really important.

I felt that I worked so smoothly in today's two shows, it gave me a great feeling of accomplishment.

People might think that to work in the lighting team is an easy job. But to tell the truth,it's not as easy as what they imagined because sometimes I was scolded by the stage manager ruthlessly. She even slapped my hands when she wasn't satisfied with the lighting.

In such awkward condition, I felt like crying but I had to suppress my tears. Somtimes I couldn't help but thinking desperately that she didn't respect me at all,otherwise she wouldn't have insulted me by such physical punishment.

But I survived after all these. I'm really glad that I wasn't humiliated myself cos I proved my competence by completing my job successfully today, and she even praised our lighting team.

The actors had great performance in today's two shows. It really showed that practice makes perfect. Their acting became more and more skillful and lively.

Our instructor distributed everyone,who had participated in the show,a paper of "The Thespian Honor Society" after Curtain Call. So I also had the chance to be on the stage in the last show,how surprising!I felt grateful cos I wasn't forgotten by the instructor even when I worked behind the stage.

It's an interesting experience. Besides, thanks for the graduation shows that my legs became a bit thinner for standing long hours to work in these days. I'm sure that I'll fall asleep right away tonight and have sweet dreams. Expecting for a wonderful Sunday cos it'll be a new life tomorrow.
