[Teachers' Reading Drama] I spent only three weeks practicing. In a short period of time Elementary and junior high school teachers gather in the gymnasium of the elementary school after work. I was practicing preparatory exercises, vocal exercises, and acting. Recitation theater is the act of telling a story through a recitation while holding a script. "Reading", "speaking aloud", "reading aloud". What is the intention of this line, and to whom is it uttered? How can I read it aloud to reach the audience? With each rehearsal The tone of the teachers' voices that utter the lines More and more, it reached my ears with more and more depth. When it comes to rehearsals on stage Not only for the cast members, but also for the staff There is a sense of tension and elation in the air. Looking back, I think the catch-up in the last week was tremendous. Not only elementary and junior high school students who are students of the teachers, but also I was very happy that people of all ages came to see it. On the stage where the moon rises, Surrounded by the sounds of guitar and violin It was a majestic recitation play. Thank you very much.
