(1) (What)Designed a show to celebrate the Anniversary of Tianjin
University, and won 3rd prize out of 18 teams.
(2) (Situation & Key Word: demanding) On the
anniversary night, there was a huge celebration party, where songs,
dances and dramas were played. Each school should design five
shows, and our class volunteered to design one. It was a demanding
goal as it was very close to the end of the term when most students
were busy preparing for final exams.
(3)(Task) As a sophomore student I was in charge of my class
performance, which was a drama. I had to deal with the pressure
from study, my classmates’ disinterest in acting, and my role as
the king in the drama.
(4) (Actions, Key Words: how I saw it through)
First, as there were only 20 students in my class, I distributed at
least one task to each student; either a role, or making tools or
costumes.
Second, since at the end of the term each member was busy with
study, the rehearsal schedule should be reasonable and periodic.
All team members cooperated well because of the low frequency and
short duration of each rehearsal.
Third, music and scenery were added into rehearsal in order to get
close to the circumstances of the party.
In addition, I emphasized the value of time and ordered every actor
to respect other partners.
(5) (Result) In the end, our performance was very successful. Not
only did I act the “king” wonderfully, but also got good marks on
the final exam.
