Chapter 42: Cinderella's stepmother
Although the drama club was saved, the student union imposed several strict conditions on it, one of which was that it must hold a performance every semester.
It is said that it is a natural thing for the drama club to rehearse a drama, but it is really a tricky thing for the five of them.
Although Gao Shuai is the president of the drama club, he has only participated in two dramas, and they were all rehearsed with the seniors of the second and third years of high school when he was in the first year of high school.
Now the drama club has finally been preserved, and after some cleaning, it has been renewed, and there is a new atmosphere of starting from scratch.
But when it came to rehearsing the play, several people were wilted, and their round eyes looked at the fat and restless Gao Shuai.
"Acting in a drama...... There must be lines, a script, and lighting, and sound effects......" He was a little stumbling, because he was nervous, so he was sweating profusely, and kept wiping his sweat with a handkerchief.
"Shouldn't we talk about the plot first? At least we have to know what we're going to do! Xia Mo said, looking at the incoherent handsome, a little speechless, and even doubted that with such a president, they would be able to rehearse the drama in the end.
"Hmmm! Right! Right! Right! Gao Shuai seemed to be frightened by Xia Mo's impatient tone, and nodded like a rattle, and several people couldn't help but sigh at the same time, it seems that it is impossible to count on Gao Shuai.
In fact, it's no wonder that Gao Shuai is so nervous, because he has no experience in this area, he was mainly responsible for lighting and sound effects in the drama club before, and then there were really no actors, so he occasionally made cameos, mostly small roles without lines, because he stuttered when he was nervous.
What to rehearse? The five of them sat on the floor of the stage, meditating thoughtfully on the squid fillet, and when they were tired, they wanted to drink a little more Coke...... As a result, I ate all the snacks, but I didn't have any ideas.
In the end, it was Gao Shuai who said, "Or, let's just play a fairy tale!" More than "Thunderstorm" or the like, it attracts the attention of the students...... What do you think? ”
As he said the last sentence, his voice was noticeably much weaker, a little timid, because several other members were looking at him with glowing eyes, which made his heart flutter for a while.
"Not bad! I think fairy tales are good, how about Cinderella? I seem to have seen similar clothes in the background, and they look good. Xia Mo said with some excitement.
In order to attract everyone's attention, of course, the prince must be played by Lu Yunhai, who is known as the first-class school grass in South China, and it is estimated that the word 'Lu Yunhai' alone can attract countless girls to buy tickets to watch, and the actor is almost settled without any objections.
As for the heroine, in order to arouse enough topicality, Gao Shuai decided to let Xia Mo play Cinderella.
Xia Mo and Yunhai were originally rumored to be childhood sweethearts on campus, and they just used this as a highlight, Gao Shuai's wishful thinking played very well, and unexpectedly, several new members seemed to have no objection to such an arrangement.
For Xuan Mu, it's good for Xia Mo and Yun Hai to be the male and female protagonists, anyway, he has no hope of being the male protagonist, so naturally he doesn't want Yan Ran to partner with other boys, even Lu Yunhai.
As for Yanran, she didn't know much about drama, but now that she has become a member of the drama club, her attitude is very clear and she is willing to obey the organization.
There are only five members of the drama club, Gao Shuai is mainly responsible for lighting and sound effects, plus the chief director.
Xia Mo and Yun Hai serve as the male and female protagonists, and Xuan Mu and Yan Ran naturally have to play various small roles.
"Cinderella's stepmother, the coachman, the prince's guard, a few monsters...... These are all played by Genki. When Gao Shuai read out this series of lists, Xuan Mu really wanted to beat people, and really wanted to break Gao Shuai's neck.
Let Lu Yunhai play the mighty and handsome prince, showing elegance in his gestures, going out is either riding a white horse, or making a high-end carriage, wearing a sword at his waist and wearing a gorgeous costume.
Yes! He doesn't care about these, whoever calls someone is Nanhua School Grass, and the box office of the drama club has to rely on him.
Coachmen, guards, beaten mobs...... OK, he can reluctantly accept these, as a member of the drama club, he still has this dedication.
But Cinderella's stepmother?
He began to highly doubt whether Gao Shuai's head was arched by a pig, damn! Don't you do it with such a bully?
Xuan Mu clamped the handsome round head with his arm, and found that he was chubby and even had a shorter neck than others.
"If you have an opinion...... Xuanmu, you have to calm down. The handsome man turned red, hunched over and hurriedly discussed.
"Damn! Cinderella's stepmother...... It's a shame that you think about it. Xuanmu increased the strength of his arm, and Gao Shuai's entire face turned purple, as if it was a red balloon that had been blown and was about to explode.
Looking at Yunhai, Xia Mo and Yan Ran, they had already laughed back and forth, completely treating him as a joke.
"However, don't say it, if Xuanmu is a man dressed as a woman, the effect should be very good." When Xia Mo said this, Xuan Mu was automatically dressed in a European-style Chinese dress, with a slightly swaying skirt and thick golden hair, bewitching and charming...... Poof! It's hilarious!
"Xuanmu, don't get excited...... I mean, there aren't many people in our drama club, if you don't think it's suitable, you can adjust it a little bit with Yanran. Gao Shuai finally broke free from Xuanmu's arms, panting, and finally came back to life.
"Okay! Which character do you like about me? What I can give you, is it a maid, a nanny, or a bad sister to Cinderella? You pick. As soon as Yan Ran said this, there was another burst of laughter.
Never mind! Xuanmu was completely desperate, it seemed that this ugly man was decided.
The drama club is scheduled to rehearse every Saturday, most of which are improvisational performances on the spot, and carefully Yanran collects everyone's opinions, records the lines, and compiles them into a book in his spare time, which can be regarded as having a rough script.
"Prince...... I'm the owner of the crystal slipper...... Oh! My dear! I'm the ......" When Xuanmu deliberately read this line in a thin voice, several people present were happy.
Think of a tall, skinny boy wearing a white slip dress, a rich makeup on his face, a blush like a monkey's buttocks, and a blonde wig.
At first, Xuanmu knew that he was embarrassed, but later he was probably numb from being ridiculed by these people, his face was getting thicker and thicker, and he still had many requirements when applying makeup, the powder should be evenly smeared, the lipstick should be redder, and he also took the initiative to ask to wear a little sexier, or how to ** the prince, and laughed at himself for being the first school flower in South China.
Yun Hai said that every time he saw Xuanmu with makeup, he had the feeling of seeing the sea...... I want to vomit!
So Xuanmu lifted his long skirt, revealing his long legs full of leg hair, and kicked Yunhai's ass mercilessly, causing the handsome and dashing prince to fall in front of Cinderella.
"Xuanmu, ** is Cinderella's stepmother, dressed like this, you want to scare me to death!" Yunhai stood up and said indignantly, is this to blame him for laughing at Xuanmu, if he doesn't do it, he won't die.
"Damn! The stepmother later found out that her true love was a prince, can't she? …… Do you know a woman's heart? Xuanmu said quite confidently, especially in the latter sentence, the mother who deliberately said it, and gently waved it on Yunhai's body with a handkerchief, and Yunhai almost didn't spit it out.
Seeing that Xia Mo and Yanran were already happily squatting on the ground and laughing, tears came out happily.
