Prologue

Ramblings, Ravings, Musings and Mutterings of a charlatan....

Regarding

The Charlatan. A Writer. A Clown. Sometimes a Barnstormer. Vaudevillian. Pirate. I'm a idealistic cynic, silent writer, trapped traveller... God help me, I'm complusively paradoxical.

Centrestage is finally over! I love the feeling of absolute slackness one gets just after a production. I have three essays due on Mon, but im not starting on any of 'em. And i have a lot to talk about. First, The Vault. As you all know, i've been with the Vault since day 1, and i've had the pleasure of seeing the play change and evolve into something quite incredible. It is easily the best Centrestage production i have ever seen. I don't think anyone was really suprised when we cleaned out the awards cabinet. Best Actress for Elsa, Best Actor for Yiyang and finally, Best Play of the night. Wow. This has truly been a memorable experience, and i would like to thank you all for letting me be a part of it.

But.

There's always a 'but' isnt there. Always, always,always. See, the Vault wasnt the only play I was invovled in. About a month or so ago, Reuben asked me to guest-act for him. At first, i declined. But we've been friends for a long time, and I didnt want to leave him hanging now. When i first read the Reuben's script, it struck me as an a very interesting play. It could have been great... Not as good as the Vault maybe, but great , nonetheless. But then something happened. I dont really know why. For the last week of rehearsals, i was mainly with the Vault. I heard whisperering of changes to nuts and bolts, but it never really registered. I didnt think it would be so.... I only realized the extent of the changes when i watched them on the night itself from backstage. I wonder how Reuben must have felt in the Control Room. I dont know why Andrew did what he did, but i know how it feels like to get caught up and go overboard, and i pray that God will help him through this dark time.
