TELL-TALE HEART

TELL TALE HEART: Incomparable presentation ever staged

by Gerald P. Rabanzo

Could you imagine horror into real? That’s what the Tell-tale heart production made when it was staged in the room of IV-Amorsolo. It was the section’s first ever presentation this school year that was performed by John Benjamin Fresnido as the first person narrator and Gerald Rabanzo who acted out the whole story together with Christopher Tiamson , Jan Alexis Templonuevo, John Carlo Villamor who were the policemen , and Daniel Abriz as the old man. The story was written by Edgar Allan Poe.

It was during the first subject when the preparation of set began while the actors were working with their costumes, make-ups and their scripts. The actors, props and set were vintage-looking to make it more realistic.

“True, nervous. Very dreadfully nervous.” That was really what the audiences, who were the IV-Amorsolo and IV-Tolentino felt during the play. Spectators were really caught by the acts that made them shake and scream into terror. The production that was assigned by Ms. Madel Regis was really geared up and planned to make a dark and terrifying set which mainly adds realistic effects to the presentation.

While the play is being staged, the whole room was dark and only the actors were lighted by simple flashlights. It was Benjamin who was telling the story and Gerald that acts it out. Together with the sound effects, every scene were really bloodcurdling most specially the part when the old man was being murdered.

After the presentation was staged, actors, together with the production team, felt really fulfilled and happy about the reviews and compliments given by the viewers. True, it was really the best group presentation that was ever performed by IV-Amorsolo.
