The drama stage at Keio NY

I went to the drama stage at Keio NY today.
My senpais were acting as different characters in each different stories like the real actors.
They acted 8 classic short stories at that time.
My favorite story was "The Ransom of Red Chief" written by O.Henry.
Now I would like to tell you about this story.

Two fool robbers are the main characters of this story.
One day, they planed to kidnapped a boy who is a child of a rich man to get a lot of money from the man, and they did very well as the plan.
But finally these men misunderstood the meaning of a letter that sent from the rich man, so they had to pay some money for the man and they didn't get any money.
It was a very interesting story for me.

The actors who are on the stage used English to act those stories.
I though it's hard to remember many scripts of each stories in English for today's live stage.
I was impressed with their acting skills and also their English pronunciation skills.
I want to be a woman who can tell something to people in English like those actors, when I will graduate this school 4 years later.
If they have the other drama stages, I would like to go and enjoy the stage with my friends.

  1. I'm glad you liked the performances. I went on Saturday and thought the students all did a good job. I liked "Ransom" also, as well as "Lamb to the Slaughter" and the last one about the two guys trapped under the tree. I told Mr. Adcock what you thought about the show. He was happy to hear what you said, and hoped that you would like to be in some of the plays in the future.
