How the Form 4's life in MJSC LANGKAWI would be without drama entitled Gulp and Gasp? Every year, it is a tradition for MJSC LANGKAWI to organise a little drama fest for the fourth formers in order to enhance their creativity, public speaking and also English comprehension! Plus, the drama Gulp and Gasp is also included in English literature component so it would be so important for us, fourth formers to thoroughly understand the storyline and the characters. Thus, in order to be in that state, a drama based on the whole real story is organised!
WHAT IS GULP AND GASP?
Gulp and Gasp basically tells us a story about a blind girl who was so poor and how she lived with just by selling flowers at the railway station. Then, the villain named Lord Septic with his right hand man, Crouch whom he always bullied, came to the station. Crouch was his manservant who always failed in doing his work. Lord Septic was a man with a great enthusiasm for wealth and glory. When both of them saw Rose, the blind girl, they bullied her. That was the point where the protagonist came and aided her. The hero was Percy. He was actually an orphan and was left alone at the railway station all by himself since he was a little baby. All he knew was that he had a key with the words NSL engraved on it. The climax came when Rose was tied on the railway line and when the train almost hit her, Percy came to the rescue and was her saviour. Percy later knew about his background. The story ends with Percy tying both Lord Septic and Crouch and he proposed Rose. They got married and lived happily ever after. Aww, what a sweet cliche ending!The preparation started with the teachers who divided the storyline into six classes. From 401 until 406. All the classes were given a week to prepare and buy things for their parts for the drama. All of the students took this drama very seriously as this was the first time that they would work together as a large organisation for this year. Some of us made videos, bought dresses and make-ups just for the drama. From my point of view, I could see the spirit of friendship and teamwork blossoming in the air.
The day arrived! It was the delightful Tuesday evening when class 401 and 402 performed their drama. They were very strong and creative. Adding this and that to make their drama more scintillating. Later on the night time, 403,404,405 and 406 performed their dramas. The crowd cheered triumphantly after each of the performance. The night was awesome with the noises, musics and the yells!
It was indeed a memory which we would never erase from our mind. The moment where we exposed the acting side of us and the creative side of us. We still do not know about the winner but if anything happens, we know that we have already worked together and we are very satisfied with what we have done on the stage :)
