Final touches

Its hard to think that people have this easy concept of theatre and in the other hand the teacher thinks that were are being spoiled towards him bu the real fact is that non of those is true. We have a lot of pressure on us because all the people used to see the Newton play as the best and when they do frankly i dont know what to do apart from laugh and look around or change from topic because really in this moment i dont think it is that good.
The comedy is what we use as glue for all of the plays we have produced for the one act play and we use this as the basis of all the work because it makes us enjoy the play and the rehearsals best. Its important for us to like what we are doing because of course it depends on how we take it to do it better or worst.
 We are giving the final touches to the One act play because it needs 2 things rythm and fast entrances. It is easy to see how if these work well instead of having a dull and slow play, we have a dynamic performance easy to understand and enjoy.
The fact is that as th classes come and go we are trying to put a faster atmosphere to the play in terms of direction in which we want it to go. We need to get to a benchmark that is set for all the the newton plays which is just to have a play that is easy to understand  and fast breaking so that the audience keeps hooked to it.
The dinamism is what separate us from the other plays because well they aren't always bad or horrible to watch but they are lacking the sparkle that is this dynamism that allows the audience to engage in our play and to make it entertained for the people.

People pay for the plays to get 2 things first the actual entertainment and then the comfort that their play is the best they could possibly see but also for us the actors the fact that we are producing this play for a paying audience makes us work more towards this and not just allow them to go and have a crapy play.

Other Proffesional plays such as the ones we go to see have a different benchmark sometimes tell something or at least make us understand a point but it is not an entertainment or a reason for us to have a laugh, it depends on the type of play you are producing, the ideas that you will use and how this will relate to the audience you are expecting
One act plays cant be dense comparing it to lets say Yerma because the audience is not ready for something like that, they are not prepared for watching a play that will teach them or will talk about a social criticism but for something that will entertain and a performance that would be suitable for school audience which might not even have knowledge on theatre and are just there to have some fun. It is understandable then the difference between the topics of the One act play and lets say the School play.
Why do we always use comedy?
Well easy. It is for the sake of entertainment and simplicity, and then why are all the School plays so magical well it is the same concept, because the audience is all school pupils and so the play has to be easy to get even for the small kids. Which actually was a big mistake in this years because we had a plot that was intresting but complex and most of the feedback were that students couldnt understand the play.

As you can see it is easy to note the difference between plays that are for different audiences and how the audience you receive affects the themes and the wording and the spectacle effect that we the actors give. If you watch the one act play this wednesday the 5th then you will realize how dynamics and entrances are needed to make a play last less in the mind of the people due to it being easy to diggest.
