The things that I will consider if I am going to perform my short performance are:
-language used
-the audiences
-The players/actors
-stage direction
-intonations, stressing and pauses
-the costumes
Language used is the first thing I should consider because good language for good feedback from the audience. If we use harsh words in our performance, the audiences will feel uneasy and will not pay attention to our performance.
The second thing is audiences. Without audiences, how can we perform? We are not talking to the wall, isn’t it? So, we must attract the audiences’ attention, so that they will enjoy our performance.
The actors and stage directions are two important things that we should consider. The actors should know things that they would do. They must know their turn in acting and they also must know the stage directions.
In acting, the intonations, stressing and pauses are very important to the actors. Those elements are very important for producing a real performance so that the audiences will feel and understand better.
Last but not least, the costumes also important because by wearing certain costumes, the audiences will know the roles of them. The costumes also can tell the audiences what era they perform.
To put all in a nutshell, those elements are very important in producing a good play. So, please check upon these things before you perform!
Oedipus Rex..
My children, generations of the living
In the line of Kadmos, nursed at his ancient hearth:
In supplication, with your boughs and garlands?
The breath of incense rises from the city
With a sound of prayer and lamentation.
- The Origin of Oedipus the King
My children, latest born to Cadmus old,
Why sit ye here as suppliants, in your hands
Branches of olive filleted with wool?
What means this reek of incense everywhere,
And everywhere laments and litanies?
-has been told in a story-telling fashion
