When I was told to play in a drama competition, I became nervous. I had never done anything like this before. But after reading Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, I was excited about what was to come. The story was great and sentences were so funny. I wanted to have a try.
I was playing Sir Toby Belch, a very runny old knight(骑士). I had to remember a lot of sentences and very funny old words. I worked hard in order to act well, like a real knight in the old days. But the most difficult job was to be funny in all my acting. This was quite different from the way I behaved in real life.
“OK. It’s time to be a different person now!” I said to myself. At first, I couldn’t do anything naturally. I didn’t know what to do when acting in this silly way. But I always told myself that I was Sir Toby and I should forget who I really was. Even when I was in the bath, I was thinking about Sir Toby’s words and actions and trying to do everything like Sir Toby did.
The competition day finally came. When it was my turn to perform, I took a deep breath and then began my part. I tried hard to make my words clear enough to be understood and my actions funny enough to make everybody laugh. When the results were finally read out, I immediately knew we had won first prize. I made it.
From this experience, I’ve come to know that I can be a different person. It doesn’t mean I’ve changed my personality, but I can do something I had never imagined.
