Doing a pantomime was really a great experience for me. I really enjoyed our pantomime even though I just have minor roles. I became a lampshade, a tissue holder, a street lamp, a curtain and a part of the poor family. After our presentation, we were really happy. I was ready to hear the comments of Ma’am May.
She said that our pantomime was a disaster. The movements of the major characters are exaggerated. But they were able to give justice to the roles that they portrayed. She said that it was really funny but it did not achieve the true meaning of a pantomime. She said that all of us are like Mr. Bean because we looked stupid especially Iris. Ma’am feels uncomfortable with how an innocent girl like Iris dances. She didn’t understand the essence of the bar girls that were meant for the transitions. It was really funny because it is the natural class; it’s III-Nitrogen. She said that if ever our pantomime will be picked for the culminating activity, audiences will never understand it unless they read the synopsis. In a pantomime, there should be few and exact movements, hand gestures and face expressions so that audiences would be able to understand it. Her advice was to change the piece because the story is really tragic but we made it humorous. For me, it’s just okay. Even though we looked stupid, at least, we enjoyed.
