Performance

We performed our monologues for the GIN conference. I didn’t get to perform mine, but I was still able to watch others perform.
Though it was last minute planned because of lack of rehearsal, every single monologue went amazing. Some people didn’t even have to present a monologue, but they just had to say one line. That was extremely effective because all the quotes were chosen for a specific reason, in other words, none of the quotes were random.
The people presenting their monologues all had a great performance. Not only because of the artistic part, they all acted amazing and represented their characters very accurately, but also the monologues themselves. The audience could tell they had put a lot of time into the writing, and it truly paid off. The acting was dramatic, but not over the top. They projected the voice and spoke clearly, which is a big issue every time I go to a play; there’s always an actor that’s barely audible to the audience.
I also had some friends from my old school in Bolivia come for GIN, and they also thought the performance was amazing. Not only that but I could also hear comments from the people sitting right behind me give their opinions. This was a very effective performance, and though I wasn’t really part of it, I did learn a lot by watching my peers.
