ABOUT US
StageArts DRAMA.
The stage is our playground; with limitless boundaries. Here in Stage Arts Drama, we believe in cultivating and honing the skills of our actors to make them the best that they can be on the stage. We believe that… "Acting is not being emotional, but being able to fully express emotion." - Kate Reid In SA Drama, we use the six elements of drama to prepare our actors for the stage. The six elements are: Blocking, Voice Projection, Eye Contact, Characterization, Creativity, and Improvisation. Each element is equally important and is instilled in all of our members through games, exercises and assessments. Drama would not only be thought by the students themselves, but once in a while, external instructors would be invited in to give our members more exposure to what it means to act on stage. Our members are a fun, creative and talented bunch with a passion for acting, writing and directing. Many came in without experience, but would leave with a rich amount of understanding of acting and the theatre.

HEY GUYS!!!!! Hmmm. Where to start? No words can describe how proud i am of every single one of you guys. You helped bring our vision to life and for that we are very very greatful. To my leads..... I am so proud that all of you pulled it off! I think that all of you have improved a lot during the time that we've worked with you. Even though some of you were not there for some days/weeks due to projects, assignments and what nots it was great to see that you guys improved all by yourself when you guys couldn't make it. You took our comments and worked on whatever needed working on and came back each rehearsals looking better. =D You guys should reallyproud of yourselvesbecause i've been getting great comments from those who watched the show. Some comments includes - Nadeen can talk? wow. I'm impressed (yes nadeen, who knew you'd open up so much) Hanaffi was impressive. "the girl... named margy, was the best actress of the night! *CLAPS CLAPS*" (quoted from some blog) WAH SEH AMALINA. There were some guys who wanted your number. haha (Don't be jealous vicky. Your indian boy will come soon enough) The mother was good! Not bad for a year one. (and some even said that you look like Anjana, our previous drama head. 0.0) "My favourite characters were the 4 Mindless Beings! They were so...... [too lazy to type out all.lol]" (brochure's fault for you guys being known as mindless beings. hahahaha -.-) MY SUPPORTING CAST + CIVILIANS + SOLDIERS + Scene 9 drama ppl YAY! you guys made it through! Lol. I know production rehearsals are never easy and are often tiring. There are always times when you guys have to wait for long periods of time before i can do your scenes. But i am really very glad that most of you took the initiative to rehearse by yourselves and help each other get better in your scenes. i think that you guys are ready for even bigger oppurtunities =) PROPS. Neela, Jac and Sarah Jane and your team... What can i say, without the props and the props team, this production wouldn't be happening at all. I must give props to the props team (HAHA) for following every single one of our demands, changes and what-nots. Even though there were some cock-ups here and there, ITS OK. I know you guys did your best. COSTUMES. Sheila, Julyha and your team... wow. I'm actually impressed at how you all organised yourselves when it came to costumes and i'm glad that you guys took the initiative to approach me if you had any queries or if i had forgotten a particular costume cos i tend to forget at time 0.0 . hehe. So yea, even though costumes was a bit rushed, im glad you guys pulled through. And special thanks to MADAME AZIZA and Arati for helping with the sewing. And of course to Ilham's sewing machine... May it Rest in Peace. All in all, i think that Faces of War was a GREAT success and i will be keeping you guys updated on the comments made by audiences. =) Video has already been burned into a dvd and the photos taken are being edited so If you want a copy of the Video and the Photos, come find me. I'll be in school tomorrow to clean up the club room, store room and E315 so i need HELP. yeap. Neela, Sarah Jane, Jac and maybe Julyha, you guys are coming. I need more help unfortunately. So please, if you're free, come down at 12pm tmr at club room to help out! =) Now that production's done, i bet you people will miss rehearsals and most importantly the people you have worked with in this production, cos i'll definitely miss it all.

HEY PEOPLE! PRODUCTION 09 IS COMING SOON! NINE MORE REHEARSAL DAYS! So.. I need people who HAVE MIA to start coming for rehearsals. Besides my usual LEADS, i need my supporting casts to come FROM TOMORROW ONWARDS - unless of course you have told me beforeheand that you're not able to come. BEN, SINDHU, GURINDER, HANISAH, ELLIOT, TRISHNA, FILZA, AMAN!! Please come tomorrow. It is really very very difficult to conduct rehearsals with missing people. From this FRIDAY ONWARDS, i want EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU GUYS TO COME DOWN. Even if you have a super small role or a super big one,you have to come down. If you can't come, please give me a valid excuse. This saturday please keep your WHOLE DAY free! We're gonna try to conduct run throughs with the dancers so please come. In case some of you NEVER READ the previous post, rehearsals this week are from 3pm onwards. What time rehearsal stops, depends on how much we finish. Saturday, rehearsals would start at 10 am and would end late. Venue would be at blk e level 3 Ok now time for next announcement! TICKETS! This FRIDAY, i would be asking how many tickets each of you want. However, the number of tickets you ask for might not be the amount you get cos of the theatre for the arts can only fit 300-320 people. And if you don't come this friday, i'd take it that you don't want any tickets at all (This doesn't apply to those who gave me valid reasons for not coming on friday). More details about ticketing would be given out this friday. Oh and one last thing.... For the whole of next week, BLOCK IT OUT FOR DRAMA REHEARSALS. Don't make any plans at all. Next week would be intensive rehearsals in the TFA. So it is a must for you guys to come. That is all for now. Kaye Dallane =)
