[Rebirth] King of Theater

Because the third act ends at the most critical moment.

Therefore, the audience is almost full of doubts, such as, 'Will Charlie the Ghost kill Lola', 'Is Lola the murderer who killed Charlie the Ghost', 'Did Lola really love Charlie?' What is the relationship between Laura' and other questions, and I am eagerly looking forward to the arrival of the fourth act.

But to everyone's regret...

When the curtain of the fourth act was raised, the most attractive character—Charlie the ghost—disappeared suddenly.

Laura, the girl played by Grace, poses in the pose in the poster, holding the head with both hands, maintaining the posture that she just fell to the ground after being chased and killed by the ghost Charlie, and staring blankly at the unknown distance...

The music starts with very slow strings full of deep emotions, and finally, the sound of the flute moves gently back and forth in the bass area, like a searchlight in the orchestra pit, turning from one direction to another.

And following this tune, the heroine Lola, who was kneeling on the ground, finally took a deep breath and sang "I'm Falling".

In Al's vision, this song is actually best sung by a soprano with a sweet voice, like a little nightingale, waving its wings and flying, with a clear and fast rising voice.

think about it!

When the pitch keeps climbing, climbing, climbing...

Then, at the highest point, with a voice that is clearly breathable and steady, but sounds trembling and slightly dangerous, slowly sing "I'mfalling~~!"

That's the feeling of falling from a height!

Awesome just thinking about it.

But unfortunately, in the drama world, the soprano has always been the female singer with the highest appearance fee.

Finding a soprano in an amateur school troupe is a joke.

Based on these practical reasons, Al had to lower the key of the song a few times, asked Randy to help him change it, and then sang it to Grace.

Fortunately, Grace's own voice is not bad, although it is not sweet, but there is a bit of innocence in the gentleness, and she is born with the appearance of a pampered and carefree rich lady, so it is quite suitable selected.

At this time, she held a human head in a very contrasting sense, and sang softly on the stage: [Salome rises slowly in the flames, wearing a seven-fold veil, she whispers softly, and carries her lover's head with her. head, keep him by your side, never be alone... take your lover's head with you, never be alone...]

This scene is still very touching.

The audience who were looking forward to the reappearance of the ghost Charlie at the beginning also fell silent, watching the scene on the stage with ecstasy.

On the stage, the girl Lola began to kiss the head in her hand.

While obsessively and repeatedly kissing people's heads, she also sang affectionately along with the music: [...I am falling...I am falling...but Salome whispered to me softly, she said, with her lover's voice. head, never alone, never alone, never alone...]

The mood of this song is very unique.

From the beginning to the end, it seems that someone is whispering kindly in the ear.

But there was a bone-chilling coldness in the whispers.

Because it's 'with a lover's head'!

But despite this, the tone of singing is contradictory and full of sincerity and affection.

Therefore, when Laura, played by Grace, sang the last line of "not alone", the audience felt unfinished and couldn't get back to their senses for a while.

It wasn't until the pre-arranged nurses suddenly applauded that they pulled back their thoughts from that complete immersion, and Busy also applauded one after another.

Grace on the stage breathed a sigh of relief.

She was almost shattered by Randy before, and her confidence was almost shattered into slag, but under Al's stimulation, she held her breath until now.

Because I like this song very much, I have practiced it many times in private, so I think I can sing it pretty well.

If the audience still didn't respond, it might be a blow to her.

However, what she didn't know was...

One of the most serious old gentlemen——Mr. Curtis has already taken out a small notebook, and wrote down in detail with a pen: [Singing "I'm Falling" with another singer, the effect should be improved at least... Well, 1.35 times (the ghost knows what algorithm he is). ]

But ignore the level of singers for the time being.

When Grace sang this song, all the audience agreed: [Looks like Laura is the murderer who killed Charlie! ]

Everyone also naturally guessed the reason for [Love Begets Hate].

So what's next...

The audience couldn't help thinking: "Could it be the ghost's revenge, or the heroine falling into the French Open?"

At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Another actor playing the heroine's mother stood outside Lola's bedroom door.

She knocked on the door first, and after reminding her daughter that she was coming, she pushed the door open and walked in.

This sudden development suddenly caught the attention of the audience who wanted to be distracted after listening to the song.

because……

The posture of the heroine Lola at this time is-kneeling on the floor, holding a human head in both hands.

But any normal parent must be intimidated, right?

Unexpectedly, this mother seemed to be blind, turning a blind eye to everything in front of her.

She only asked [I won't come back at night, you can find something to eat yourself], then turned and left.

The audience looked dumbfounded.

They are now full of questions: "What the hell is going on? Your daughter is holding a human head! Human head! Human head! Even if you don't help call the police, you should help bury a corpse anyway (no), actually Gone like this? Gone?"

Next, there is a short break.

The curtain fell and was pulled up quickly, and the scene on the stage was changed to the school again.

From here, we can actually see the funding problem of the crew.

There are two scenes in total, and they are switched back and forth.

In the school scene, it is similar to the situation in the second act.

Laura still seems to be on good terms with every classmate and participates in activities, but she always stays out and has a cold attitude.

At this time, the ghost Charlie appeared mysteriously again.

But after reappearing, he seemed to become more evil, maintaining a bloody appearance, following the heroine step by step, pestering the heroine repeatedly, and making various malicious suggestions:

[Damn teacher, why do you always ask me questions?Does he dislike you?Do you want to kill him? ]

[Damn Herve, isn't it just good grades?What right do you have to look down on someone and kill him! ]

[Bitch!bitch!Why do so many people like her?kill her? ]

[Dirty, smelly and dirty, why are there such nasty students in the school, kill them. ]

[Why not kill them? ]

[Like me, cut off their heads!Cut off their heads! ]

With more and more excessive and radical words appearing...

Lola's ghost Charlie's presence is becoming more and more unbearable.

While in class, she yelled out in disregard of classroom discipline: [Shut up!shut up! ]

There was a sudden silence on the stage.

The teacher who pretended to be standing in front of the blackboard turned to look at her, and the whole class also turned to look at her in astonishment.

Then, the teacher was the first to ask with concern: "Lola, what's the matter with you?"

Randy, who played the ghost Charlie, did not know when he stood next to the teacher again.

He grinned, showed a cruel smile at Laura, made a vicious gesture of cutting his throat, relying on the fact that others could not hear his voice, he asked loudly: "Are you sure you don't want to try?" ]

Laura stood up abruptly.

Because she got up too quickly, the chair behind her fell to the ground, and there was a bang.

All the actors pretending to be students and teachers looked at her in a daze, with surprised expressions.

Laura rushed out of the classroom.

The familiar music sounded again, and this time, it was Grace's turn to sing "Open the Gates of Hell".

Same melody, but different lyrics.

Ghost Charlie sings [I want to watch you kill yourself, I want to watch you bleed—];

And Grace sings [I'm going to kill you again, I'm going to send you back to hell—]

At this time, the lighting engineer will turn off all the lights in other parts of the stage, and only one beam of light will shine on the heroine Grace.

At the same time, taking advantage of the darkness, other actors hurriedly removed all the tables and chairs that had been placed just now, leaving the stage for one person and one ghost.

Grace is determined to make the ghost Charlie disappear, so that he will not let him continue to haunt her.

She lit a flame to burn the head.

Randy, who played Charlie, watched this scene with interest: [Are you sure this will work? ]

Grace, who plays Lola, replied firmly: [I'm sure. ]

The human head was crackling and burning in the flames...

But ghost Charlie still stood there.

He spread his hands, shrugged, and gave Lola a smug smile.

In the deep, gloomy music...

A makeshift choir of other actors began to sing.

It begins with a chorus of male voices: [I want to watch you kill yourself, I want to watch you bleed—]

Then a chorus of female voices: [I'm going to kill you again, I'm going to send you back to hell—]

At the same time, a light kept switching back and forth between the male and female protagonists.

The ghost Charlie always had a lazy smile on his face, but Laura became paler and paler...

Thunder once again made a few rumbling noises in the clouds!

Then, in the deep music like the undercurrent...

The heroine Laura finally sang the truth slowly: [You are just an illusion of mine, as long as you close your eyes, you will disappear. ]

The ghost Charlie stared at her, suddenly grinned confidently, and sang softly: "I am the lover in your mind, as long as you live, I will be here!" ]

The author has something to say:

PS. It seems that the writing is still not very good, I am a little anxious, the details of the previous article are too sloppy (however, I once wrote that Charlie the ghost went back to school to investigate the cause of his death, but no one talked about him at all), and then I chose this Stems are a bit difficult.By the way, frankly, this "imagining a person" stalk comes from the movie Fight Club, alas, the movies are quite difficult to understand, I still want to write dramas, I really overestimated myself.
