The long forgotten pleasure

بِسْمِ ال

Yesterday Kak Erni & I went to catch a monologue by a scripwriter (whom i used to know her as only an actress), Haryani Othman.
It was my first time watching a single performaner acting multiple characters.
most of the time, we are only able to watch an actor/ actress acting multiple characters on the silverscreen (y is it called silverscreen btw?)
back to the play, it was simple layout from the (single) cast, to the props (2 chairs, table with cookies and jars and tray and ......), simple lighting and the lepak-habis dia(mono)logue.
Hani had to change character interchangablely. within seconds. expressions change, tone of voice. within seconds.
i take a while to change my mood from the worried headless "itik" to a gracious "swan" .
back to the play,now, thats what i call ART!

expressions.... :) whaoz! she did great. awesome. alot of parts i could easily relate or "feel" her.
ok, im not a good critic/ someone who gives good or membina opinions.
basically, i love the simplicity of the play yet the intense emotions that were presented.

it just occured to me that actually i love going to plays, musicals. how much i missed them.
the long forgotten pleasure.
