'ThEaTre"-BaRRaNgEr

It's been quite a long time i didn't upgrade my blog. It was a hectic week i went through last week; with all the mid semester exams and also assignments. Talking about mid sem. exams, Teaching of Drama is one of them. I don't know how i did the paper. I hope for the best even though i've forgotten some of the important information that is needed. Furthermore, i've spent my Chinese New Year holidays reading the Barranger's Theatre book.
Personally, i like the Barranger's book because i learn a lot from it as i didn't have prior knowledge about theatre. Before this, i thought that theatre is so difficult and not interesting enough if we compare with when i learned about short story. I think it is difficult when i've been exposed with the Greek's text which is different from my language, culture and believe. What i found out is that the modern theatre which shares the same language as i do, i think it is interesting and relevant in this period of time. The theatre that i like the most is 'The Caucasion Chalk Circle'. I'm touched with the plotline as a woman who is gifted with mother instinct, i can feel the love towards the little child as she is the one who looked after him in difficult time; wartime. The Greek theatre also nice in their plotline as i learned about new things that i didn't know before this. their culture, their believe and their way of living. At this moment, the Greek's masterpiece that i like is ' King Lear' as i also a daughter and i can feel what Cordelia felt and i hope i didn't be like Goneril and Ragen. From the Barranger's also, i know what theatre really is, how they performed it, when they usually performed and where the place of performing theatre.
All in all, i'm starting to feel what theatre really is!I just need to work harder as the archaic language is still difficult for me..so that i can enjoy the beauty of theatre!
