Darth Squeaker - Ramblings Of An Misunderstood Scientist

Godspell Continued

Godspell was very good, unlike what a lot of friends said. The music was good, the whole play was quite funny and the acting was quite good. I loved the touch they gave the parables, slanging some of the language to make it distinctly Singaporean. Except for the last part where the pace ground to a near halt, which made it very, very boring. the whole play was funny and moving at a steady smooth pace and suddenly everything just stops and grinds to a halt. The last pat was alos really tough to understand, one minute they're telling parables and preaching the word of the lord, suddenly it's the last supper and Jesus is crucified... I was completely lost at that bit.

Also had lotsa fun because there was a bit where the whole place was completely dark and they took out these penlights or something and were waving them around, so I took out the small flashlight attached to my wallet and started to follow them. Haha, that was really funny, cause everyone was staring at me like I was insane or something.

And then, right at the end, cause it was gala night, they did an AC cheer so, me and my classmate came together and started shouting it at the top of our voices with them, even though we were on the second level and they were on stage. Again, everyone stared at me as if I was crazy. Come on, it's an AC production and we pulled it off successfully, cheer with them! We were all AC after all, more than half the level wasfilled with ACSIans and only the two of us cheered, what happened to the AC spirit?

Then right at the end, I managed to get a program and got my friend(The stage manager... Wow.) to bring me around and get autographs from the cast. Didn't get all though, will just have to complete it on Monday. I also got Glen Goei's autograph!!!! WOW!!! YAY!!! Hahahaha... When I got the cast members' autographs they were like, oh finally, now this is what we've been waiting for... haha.
