Release that Witch Chapter 189: Stars and flowers
There is no curtain and no speech. There is only a wooden board that separates the front desk and the preparation room. For the first time, a group of people performed a drama on such a simple stage. This is also the first official performance in their lives.
"The story takes place in the Kingdom Capital of a kingdom. In the outer city, there is a beautiful and kind girl ..."
As the narration sounded, Irene slowly walked to the stage. She was wearing a dirty gray robe, her hair was messy, and 7-8 was on the top of her head, and her face was black and gray.
Swinging the broom in her hand, she carefully sweeps the floor, bending down from time to time, wiping the dirt that is difficult to remove with the robe corner.
After several days of rehearsal, the entire plot flow Irene has memorized in heart. The story is very simple. A civilian woman who lost her mother was bullied at home, but saved a witch out of kindness, and let witch perform magic power to send her to a prince's dance and fall in love with the prince at first sight. However, magic power has limited time, she had to leave the ball in a hurry, leaving a crystal shoe in a panic. The prince did not hesitate to search the whole city in search of this beautiful girl, and eventually found her in the outer city. After that, the two lived happily together.
The story is simple and easy to understand. The plot has changed the usual description of the love between the princess and the prince, but the civilian woman got the help of witch by virtue of her kind nature, and won the prince's favor. As the main character of the play, Cinderella, from tolerance to summons courage resistance under the oppression, is also where the actors need to focus on performance.
But what Irene did not expect is that May actually gave herself the lead position.
Western Region star is willing to perform with her, she feels very happy, and as the pillar of the stronghold theater, May has enough pride and confidence to play the leading role in any drama, can be used in "Gray "Girl", she volunteered to play the role of half-sister.
This made Irene a bit unbelievable. Until the other party repeatedly emphasized that this was a new performance, Irene took on the role of Cinderella.
In the following rehearsal, she was full of energy, not only repeatedly practicing each scene, but also teaching the acting skills with the same bed May after extinguishing candle, just to live up to the other party's intentions.
Fortunately, Irene is not inexperienced. Looking at the eyes of countless people in the audience, she relaxed her body and reproduced the content one by one that she had repeatedly practiced. So far, she feels that she is in good shape and has not committed Any errors. When Rosia, who plays witch, forgets her words, she also encourages each other with her eyes.
"I'll split wheat porridge in half, don't eat too fast, it's still hot."
"Thank you for your kindness, little girl, I will repay you."
When Rosia walked back to backstage, the crowd applauded --, which relieved Irene. You should know that if you forget the words during the official performance in the stronghold theater, it is definitely an intolerable mistake. The nobles will only laugh at the actor with hiss, not with good applause.
At this moment, May go on stage.
This plot is the first clash between the mean sister and Cinderella. Under the oppression and insults of the sister, the latter can only tear up and hide in the basement, weeping over the mother's portrait.
But when the opponent stood in front of them, Irene suddenly noticed that the atmosphere on the court suddenly changed.
She is no longer the star of the rehearsal theater, and has become the ruler of the stage. Irene felt a strong sense of oppression with her high expression, proper physical movements, and unconcealed contempt in her eyes.
"Oh, look who's this? What are you thinking about when you don't work during the day?"
"You poor worm that nobody wants, don't hurry to clean my dress!"
"Don't be clumsy anymore, this is the formal banquet dress, you can't afford to break it."
May pushed her hard. Originally Irene should pretend to fall at the moment, but in the cold eyes of the other party, she couldn't help taking a few steps backwards, accidentally tripped herself, and fell to the ground with little buffer , Elbow hit the stage floor, a burst of hot pain came.
"Really useless waste ..." May's eyes stopped looking at her, but instead she walked to the center of the stage, facing the quiet square and crowd, and started her monologue.
"It is indeed Miss May," Margery lowered his voice, amazed, "a few words will attract everyone's attention, this role has been fully brought to life by her."
"Well, it's really good," Roland nodded, but this person is too bad. She showed disgust and contempt for Irene, it was almost as if she were sitting here, she could feel her ruthlessness. The emotional appeal can be seen from the audience's expressions ... but she is not the main character. Irene's pretty good performance suddenly eclipsed her in front of her. In this way, I was afraid that the supporting role would be above the main character.
Irene is a little dazed.
She knows that she must quickly get up. The May monologue is mainly to express the desire for the prince and lead to the court ball. It won't last long. She has to leave the stage before the scene changes. But the familiar feeling when rehearsing in the past has left her, Irene first found the stage so strange.
You're that far?
She didn't return to her mind until May finished her performance, walked past her, and fluttered the skirt corner on her face. The other party did not speak, but Irene read this sentence from the cold eyes of Western Region Star. Irene knows that May must not pull itself up. The roles of the two of them are similar. Once they reach out, the drama is over. She bit her lip tightly, and the iron smell overflowed from her lips, looking at the back of May disappearing behind the partition. She wanted to get up and leave, but Gheit and Sam already trot up with the props. Sam also put the barrel Opportunity whispered in front of her, "The next scene is still yours, let's go on, come on!"
Irene knows this is not compliant, but it's true ... She has missed the chance to end.
So the audience saw a wonderful change. Cinderella sat motionless on the stage, but the surrounding scene was changed from the living room to the basement. The beautiful round table and wooden chairs were turned into wine barrels and rattan baskets for transportation. The props go back and forth, but the girl maintains a posture, as if frozen in time.
The next story is that Cinderella is trapped in the basement, and witch comes out to rescue, not only gives her beautiful clothes, but also summons a carriage, which can directly load her into the palace.
"Remember, time can only last until midnight. You must leave the palace before the dragon clock sounds. Otherwise, clothes and carriages will disappear."
"Ah ... Yes. I see. Thank you. "
Irene has not escaped from the daze at this time. She used to hide in the background to watch the May show secretly. She only felt that this woman who was free and smiling in front of thousands of viewers was very powerful. When she faced this bright star on the stage, she fully understood the amazing strength of the other party in acting.
Is this the distance between the star and the flower?
After speaking dryly with Rosia, the first place of the drama is the court ball. In order to achieve the effect of the grand ball, this scene is also full go on stage -- In addition to her and May, Gheit, Sam, Rosia and Tina will put on masks and dress as other noble dancers. And the dresser of His Highness the Prince is her lover, Ferlin Schilt.
