Chapter Seventy-Five: The Show

In order to familiarize himself with the new play as soon as possible and meet the minimum performance requirements, Timothy issued a ban on all the actors in the troupe, and simply sealed the door of the hotel.

Therefore, except for a few people who know the truth, people outside do not know the reality of "Death of the Demon Dragon" at all, and most people are still full of expectations for this new drama.

Even some of the more nimble vendors have taken advantage of the heat, and some carpenters have rushed to make a batch of toys, including the black dragon and the wood carving of Ilea.

This belongs to the main drama yet, and the peripherals are on sale first.

In addition, there are some taverns and inns that take the opportunity to offer gimmicky dishes such as dragon slaying pie and roasted dragon eggs, while other tailors are not far behind, selling handkerchiefs and clothes embroidered with dragon heads.

In short, the atmosphere has been completely stirred, and the big guys are like they are going to celebrate the holidays.

On the day of the performance, the front of the stage was even more crowded, and Timothy opened the window to find that the line had already lined up on another street, and he didn't know what the people behind him could see.

In addition, many surrounding buildings were also crowded with people, and some people even climbed onto the roof to watch the play.

Timothy glanced at it, then quickly closed the window, and came to the downstairs of the inn with somewhat vain steps, and all his eyes could see were tired faces.

There are also people who are chanting words into the air, as if they have fallen into evil.

Although Timothy has decided to adopt the plan proposed by Li Yu to use a teleprompter to help actors memorize words, there is a kind of actor who has a class owner.

These people who love and mead are basically cultivated by Timothy, or like-minded companions with him, and these people naturally implement his aesthetic standards, have very strict requirements for the works they participate in, and do not allow themselves to remember the lines.

Normally, it would take at least two or three months to polish a new play before it can be performed publicly, but this time they only had three days to prepare.

Therefore, during the rehearsal, more than one person came to Timothy and said that he could not act, because he could not make a qualified work in such a short time.

As a result, Timothy not only had to write the script, watch the rehearsals, and coordinate the work, but also give his actors psychological massages, pour chicken soup, and persuade them to keep going.

For three days, three whole days, Timothy did not close his eyes once, and his eye sockets were already bloodshot, which is why he was floating when he walked.

The troupe owner felt that he could return to the embrace of the god of art at any time.

And the actors under him are not much better than him, until the moment before the show, there are still people who have not found their props, and the whole backstage is full of chickens and dogs.

But Timothy couldn't care so much anymore, because the audience outside was almost looking away, but David, who was sitting in the front row, looked calm and relaxed, and didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.

However, Timothy did not dare to let the acting head of the Figuerola family really wait too long.

Soon he had the first actor on the stage.

It was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old human girl, similar to Ilea's size, with a pair of long false ears on her head, a set of Arias family clothes, and a rabbit coat of arms on her chest, so that everyone could recognize at a glance who she was playing.

Speaking of the actor who was playing Miss Rabbit on the stage at this time, Miss Rabbit was no stranger to it, it was the young actress who was taught by the troupe master to practice her voice when she first met Timothy.

With her appearance, Timothy's heart in the background also rose to his throat.

You must know that Ireya is a well-deserved heroine in this play, he originally preferred a few more experienced actresses, and age is not really a problem, and it can be covered up by makeup.

However, those people were reluctant to act because they were worried that they would smash their signboards.

In the end, the troupe owner could only hand over the role to the newcomer, but fortunately, the latter's performance at the beginning was quite decent, in the eyes of professionals like Timothy, it feels that there is still a lot of room for improvement, but there is no problem in fooling the audience below.

In fact, most people come to the play to have a lively time, as long as the performance reaches the passing line, the difference between the upper and lower levels is not very clear.

The actress who played Ilea first gave a monologue to introduce herself, and then expressed her concern for her father who was away from home, and said that she would make a baked pie by herself on the day her father returned.

The Miss Rabbit in the audience who watched this plot blushed a little, how can she know how to cook, whether it is in Teacup Castle, or later when she goes to the temple to study, she is a pure dry rice person, and she will only eat dry rice.

However, art inevitably has the element of processing, which comes from life and is higher than life.

As the girl continued to watch, she saw that the actor who played herself had returned to the backstage, and then it was time for another scene, the scene of Ruska Roman's sword.

Among them, when Ruth appeared on the stage, everyone's reaction was good, and when Carroman also came to power, there was no reaction on the civilian side, but there was an uproar on the aristocratic side.

Because the person who plays Carroman is none other than Carroman himself, who has been missing for a long time.

Linked to the Haikou boasted by Ilea before, saying that Li Yu could find Carroman through an oracle, many people didn't believe it at the time, but now the facts are better than all words.

But then some people began to feel that something was wrong.

As a nobleman, it stands to reason that Carroman should not run to the troupe to act, no matter how much he likes drama, there is no problem with acting by himself behind closed doors, and it is not appropriate to run out and show up. Disgrace to the Vir family.

However, Carroman seems to be completely unaware of this, and is still acting on stage, or not performing, but just reproducing what happened at the beginning.

Including how he arranged for his attendants to steal the real sword, and then killed Ruth with the real sword, which caused the audience to let out a burst of exclamations.

Ireya turned her head to look at Davy not far away, who still looked unhurried, as if what was being played on stage had nothing to do with him.

However, Miss Rabbit didn't believe that this scene would continue, and he could still be so calm.

Soon, there is a small climax in the second act, after the "accidental killing" of Ruth, Carroman cries loudly while holding his friend's corpse and explains his pain in killing his friend in a monologue.

This part was negotiated between Ilea and Kaloman.

Carroman knew that he was going to die, and the reason why he did this was to make up for his debt to Ruth, make his heart feel better, and secondly, to clear some of his guilt.

The head of the Vir family also mustered up a lot of courage to stand here.
