To be or not to be...
Categories :
Those of you who know me, know how theatrical I can be...
I am not saying I am a good actress, far from it actually. However, I love acting and I am doing a theater workshop at school. My problem with acting has always been, cracking up mid scene; but, in this course I have been working on concentration and I am starting to get better.
My next story is about my theater class last week.
It is an improv class, meaning we don't work with scripts...
Last class we had an exercise where we were supposed to tell each other our "wants" in turns...
This girl turns to me saying: "I want a married man"
I'm like: "what, a specific one or any married man" - what? It was a legitimate question... lol
she says: "a specific one"
later on we get to an exercise where we had a circle and we had to blame the person on the left for something, pick a fight and the person was supposed to apologize...
The same girl from before is on my left and I get inspired, here's the "fight":
(L = me, R = her)
*I was in an emotional place, and I took advantage of it... lol
L: I thought we were friends...
R: What?
L: I thought we were best friends, and you go and sleep with my husband...
(at this moment she is in SHOCK and starts laughing nervously and I laugh too... I knew it was gonna hit her good... I whisper: Sorry... She says it's ok... so we go on...)
L: How could you do this to me. I trusted you...
R: You said you didn't like him anymore...
L: what? are you kidding me?
R: you said you didn't love him
L: Oh, you are actually going to to take what I said to you, my best friend, after a fight with my husband and use it as an excuse to sleep with him? How dare you?
R: I thought it was ok...
L: Ok, ok? How can you say that? How could you do this? You were my maid of honor, you are the godmother to my child, we have been friends for more than 20 years... And you dare say it was ok...
R: I will never do it again... Give me another chance...
L: You lost your chance when you stole my boyfriend in high school... We were young, I let it go...
R: Please, give me another chance...
L: I can't, I can never trust you again... I am done, our friendship is over... I never want to see you again (I said, Shaking a bit while a actual tear dropped)
I turned and left....
The scene was over... and one of the guys of the class turns and says:
I am never going to pick a giht with you...
lol
the other comment was:
"Are you married?"
me: No
"Not even a little?"
lol
Next class?? Tonight... Yay...
