hola, muchachos. welcome to the little piece of world that I call my own :)

today i watched rjc dramafest. veh screwed.

buckle buckley was chekhov's gun-ish because they talked about "the moon" which was a prop. again, it was the classic buckley case of "good script, crap actors". especially the one playing the Sm. her accent was so strong, her pronunciation was just awful and she was overdoing it like some crap. srsly. the rg people are TOO naturalistic. it's too "wayang" at times. so BB GGed. ashish kumar didn't have the impact i expected. and jun sean was spazz. as always :)

Bayley waddle was another "dark and horny" script. it featured, among other things, a bollywood dance, an old paedophile, 2 mondo weird people and a cleaner. it was quite a good performance though, although it did border on slapstick comedy, especially sagar's part. that was hilarious. "my precious papadum!" XDD

Hadley Hullett. Easily a shoo-in for best play. After all, with people like Nabil Aliffi, Zaki, Jon Lian and Jarrell, there isn't much room for failure. Nabil was directing this time, though. interesting. the play explored the lives of 7 (or rather 6, since the sailor backstory wasn't touched on) people trapped on a lifeboat. and the mom gives up her life to save her daughter. it combined elements of naturalistic theatre with physical theatre.

Moor Tarbet. Something like the Vagina Monologues. It was about periods and menstrual cramps. The best part was Shi Yang. His slapstick was so damn funny. It was a decent piece, but I feel the themes could have been better explored though.

Finally, it was Morrison Richardson. damn screwed. it was about this couple wanting to have babie so badly that the wife is delusional and imagines that she has a child. and the singing is damn spooky, not to mention out of tune.
