Reaction Paper in Filipino
(Noli Me Tangere)

When we watched the stage play of Noli Me Tangere, I was excited but not until we knew that we were headed to the Star Theater, and not at the CCP Theater as we expected. When we got out of the bus, we brought or jackets with us because we expect it to be cold as the AFP Theater. But once we were inside, it was hot and eventually, we had to fan ourselves with the hand-outs that we bought. When the play started, I was a bit disappointed because some parts of the scene were just played with a projector. We thought it was very boring and uninteresting because of the lack of props. The last 2 years, we watched Ibong Adarna and Florante at Laura at the AFP Theater and they gave us their full performance which is interesting enough. While at the Star Theater, I really thought that it sucks compared to the AFP Theater. They lack in props (as I had already said) and even the ones that they have are old and looks battered. Their costumes look cheap and I don’t find it entertaining. They have a projector background and we thought it was so uncool. At the AFP Theater, they have backgrounds and props colorful and pretty enough to be entertaining for us. At the Star Theater, they even lack characters. In some scenes, I find it odd because it was different from what I’ve read and I was looking for my favorite chapters and lines and I found out it was the ones that they’ve cut. I really thought that it was poorly directed, though the characters portray their roles well and I found no fault in them. They are good at acting but sometimes their mic would just turn on and off at their slightest movements. Overall, I think it was a tiny bit unpleasant (no offense!) and I would prefer watching at the AFP Theater if given the chance. For me, everything was almost always out-of-placed, except for the characters. Well, at least they’re worth watching. They are the only ones that I liked at

    As soon as I entered the theatre, it was completely packed. I also saw many people from different age groups; this gave me a feeling that the show would be entertaining enough to get people from all ages to come and see the show. The environment of the theatre was very formal, as there was a red and gold layout and it was also very clean.…

    All the elements in the show went perfectly with the actors, the sets, and the lighting. The whole stage was used and the performers moved around throughout the entire stage. The pace of the production seemed to be right. I thought it might have dragged out a little but picked up in the secound act.…

    They play was quite an interesting play with its use of comedy and tragedy. The actors did a terrific job on portraying the characters. The set was small so it was much easier to see their reactions. The introduction to the play was pretty unique with those people in tight pants and glitter all over everybody in the lobby. They never broke character no matter what went on in the lobby. Later they used as prompts on stage which was pretty interesting because at times I was so into the play I forgot they were there acting as a car or a door.…

    - In order to be first in delivering such play, the civic courage is necessary, - the writer says. - To lift the project without patronage of nouveau riches today when people save on water and electricity, it is a feat. Alexander Kaplan very creatively approached the setting of a performance and wasn't afraid to include very effective video frames in a performance. As a result even the specialists thinking that in theater similar show is unacceptable, admitted that the performance only benefited from it. You saw that the audience quits after a performance with tears in the eyes. It once again reminded them that life isn't infinite. The past passed, tomorrow is in fog, there is only today. When we understand it, we will live differently: more…

Berkoff is well known for his in your face dramatic styles that causes the audience to react. People describe this style as “It is the kind of theatre that inspires us to use superlatives, whether in praise or condemnation”. One of the dramatic styles used by Berkoff is a style of physical theatre called “Total Theatre”, which is the idea that all elements should be equally as important. Berkoff is also well known for his physicalisation which is best shown in “metamorphis” in which berkoff becomes the object. Also in Berkoffs plays he intends the actors to represent the characters rather than become them. In turn Berkoff also wants to convey emotion withing his characters rather than just thoughts. This can be done through the use of mime, movement and voice expression. The overall reason why i chose to perform East by Berkoff was to learn more about the way characters are represented and why the audience feels distanced from the play. Through the use of Berkoffs dramatic styles and vulgar scenes and characters.…

    It is a truth that in such a technologically savvy and dependant generation as today 's, venturing to the theatre is slowly becoming a rarity. This is due to the strong, extensive domination of film, television and new media, clearly eminent in the present entertainment industry. Live theatre in Brisbane is constantly competing with the comfort and affordability of staying in and enjoying a pre-recorded television show or watching a 3D movie in one 's own home. There is next to no motivation for people in today 's general public to attend a theatrical performance leading to the classification of live theatre as passé and dated. However this does not in any way signify that the quality of theatre has degraded. For those who enjoy the emotive and interactive experience of attending live theatre, Brisbane has an array of diverse shows that are perfect indicators of the level of high quality theatre that is available to the community. In fact through the thorough analysis of three different levels of productions: Wicked, Summer and Smoke and Lying Cheating Bastard this essay will attempt to prove that through the manipulation of the elements of tension and relationships within each of these plays, dramatic meaning is created and the quality of theatre is heightened.…

    I really didn't bring any expectations with me, other than excitement of seeing only my second real live theatre presentation.

    From the show I watched titled “Kasalan Sa Likod Ng Simbahan, I can’t deny that all the performers are good in acting in their character. I know it is very difficult to perform in live like theater compare on the performance we saw on television and cinemas. It is because live performance like the presentations made by TAGA-CLSU, mistake is not allowed, and the motion of the character must be powerful and emotional, no cut when they forgot the script unlike the movie on TV and cinema.…

    While watching, the play seems to be getting more interesting as it continues with its story. The viewers are expected the use their imagination to appreciate the messages the actors are trying to portray, and are expected to create the scenery and environment themselves. I’ve noticed that a Noh play like this is very bare and simple yet interesting and good to watch. The performers placed huge importance on the aesthetics of their plays which I think is very effective for a play like this for it gets my attention as well. The costumes and masks are crafted with elaborate precision, just as every gesture and movement is perfectly accurate and refined. The play has a poetic and often rhythmic structure to it as I have noticed. What made me to say that it was interesting was that it’s symbolic and elusive, comprising distilled modes of voice and movement, accompanied by chorus, flute, and drums. I kept on looking at their gestures especially with their hands and feet and I could imagine how hard they practiced for it.…
