Lately i have not been writing in my memos..
This was partly because i was very busy. And also because i had nothing
to write about..
This may seem contradictory however, i could not find anything worth
typing down for people to see.
But today i have something to write about.
It is about Dramadan, the three small productions that we are putting
on at the Drama -House this week.
Today we had our tech rehearsal.
This too would not be worth noting: Except today, i had the chance,
for the first time to see the other plays that are being put on.
This is what i want to write about.
I was extremely impressed by a one-man act put on by a fellow performer.
The play was self written, and the author acted it out/ it was a monolougue
of a bum.
Iwas very much awe struck from the beginning: first because of the Irish
accent he played out, and second from the intense concetration of his
acting.
It was intensely fierce yet natural, but ultimately, again, very intense.
i will not repeate the play itself, but if you have the chance to see
it you should.
Nights like this i am glad of life, because i bare witness to talent
and greatness.
And though, i yet feel inadequate in my abilities and talent as an actor,
i am grateful that i get to perform, to have the oppourtunity to be
a part of the magic.
今夜 芝居の醍醐味を体験した。
僕らはドラマハウスで今週末 ３つの小作品を上演
そして今夜そのテク・リハーサルが あった。
Christopher Durang 作の"An
Actor's Nightmare" に出演する僕らは ここではじめて 他の２作品を見る機会があった。
そして
圧倒された。。。
生徒の自作自演のモノローグ
膝つく汚らしい乞食に スポットライトがひとつ
傍らにはスコッチひとつ。。。
そして 淡々と そして時に激しく語りが始まる。
自虐的な笑い、震える語り口、 はがしい怒り、
顔の表情、語りの間、全身のしぐさ
かれの世界に引き込まれた。
芝居
生きていくこと
それを表現物とし創造しうる
演劇
こういうとき自分らの芝居の未完成度
主役を演じる自分の未熟をふがいなく思う、
才能を目の当たりにし、
もっともっとさらにもっと全身全霊をいれて 練習をしたい しておけばよかったと いたたまれなく思う
まわりをもっと引っ張って行かなくてはと
ただ自分次第で僕らの芝居を良く出来る
自分が今 その場を与えられていること
ステージという場をこのような才能ある人と共有 出来ることにつよい心の高鳴りを感じる。
