#5 My Reaction On The
Play Mingming

     It was my first time watching many plays by IPAG or the International Performance Arts Guide the performers behind the play. It was also my first time to watch them on the evening in the mini theater because they always perform in the mini theater morning and they perform on the gymnasium on evening during my highschool days.
    Actually I wasn't expecting that the play will be like that. I was expecting that the characters were animals because of it's tittle that symbolizes a cat. I wasn't able to understand the play at the very beginning, because the characters were talking to the audience and not to the other characters. I was also confused at Mingming, the leading character of the story. I thought she was not dead actually and I then think, that it was a flash back. At the end of the story, someone asked the names of the characters and they were R, I and P. Then, I know what those characters symbolizes. They are symbolizing death. I think the play is strictly not for children because it contains malicious acts and languages not good for children life us also, I think.
     As a whole, I wasn't able to understand the message of the play. Because I really don't understand some of the scenes there. I can't understand some of the phrases of the mother of Mingming and also her. I wasn't able to ask any questions because it may took a long time on explaining it to me. Because I may not understand their answers.
     But their performance was still great and wonderful, even thou I wasn't able to understand some in the play. Maybe because they are professional artists and they have been performing for a long time, that's why I still enjoy watching the play. Because for professional people, they really enjoy what they are doing and always practicing on the field they belong. I was really impressed on the performers. Because I can conclude directly that they are all professionals in the field of acting or performing. As we go to our stats, the actors afford to laugh even thou there is no funny thing happened. The performers also are not distracted when some of the audience are noisy talking and some are laughing at them and they still continue what they are doing. They really don't mind what the audience are doing.
    For me, the story was not that interesting but the performance by the performers were amazing. The music, props and costume were good. The facial expressions of the performers were fantastic and their voices were very loud and clear even the audience are very noisy and annoying. IPAG is really good on the field on performing arts and their performance are improving since I was in my highschool days they were better now. And all I can say is that IPAG really did well and I hope to watch more plays on them.
