Impressions of students of the Second Gymnasium from the theatrical performance in Agiassos

It all started just before Christmas, when we learned that we would take part in the student artistic competitions of our region. Auditions began immediately and then the distribution of roles.

Now we had to learn our roles. After some time the rehearsals began. The rehearsals were pleasant, we had a great time, we learned new things, we came close to each other. So time passed and after effort came the day when we would show our work.

We had already arrived at the Reading Room of Agiassos, an admirable theater, which when we saw we were impressed. We immediately began to set the sets to start the last rehearsal. We didn't care about anything or the first one – we only cared about having a good time. Backstage, there was a climate of joy and happiness.

The time we were going to play has arrived.We all had fun with it.We gave our best.

Even the viewers acknowledged our trouble and applauded us. They were having a good time and that was what encouraged us to continue.

After bowing down and entering the dressing rooms, a festive atmosphere prevailed, we were all happy. We had proved what we deserved and what we had done. We were all hugged and fell on top of each other out of our joy.

  • When we entered the event hall of Agiassos I was left with my mouth open. when I went upstate I had a lot of anxiety and we hadn't started yet.

On the dressing rooms we were baptized, we got dressed and it was time to play. When it was time to go out on stage I was afraid that I would fall . As soon as they put the music on for me to come out, all the guys underneath started applauding, whistling and shouting. That's it , the anxiety went away and I kept my number. As soon as the curtain closed we began to squeak with joy, kissed, hugged

  • When we entered the theater……….. a fantastic theater, with nice seats, large dressing rooms, I wondered if I would play in such a beautiful theater, and yet that was the truth. At first we did the rehearsals, which to tell the truth was a little boring, then people started coming and the stress started to come out of us. We went over to the dressing rooms yes we got ready and without realizing it the show started. I was backstage and watched the show until my own scene came and I was so anxious that I was saying the stupidity I was doing that I took part. My heart was beating hard. And here I went up on stage and started saying my words. The difficult moment passed. I did my tent. The guys were saying that I played my stage very well. The audience was very good with us and that took us up a lot. Then we sat down a little and saw another play and then we got on the bus to the way back, where there was chaos. We are all happy because we did very well and we go for the first time!!!!
  • I felt a little bad that I didn't play in the theater, but when the choice was made I wasn't here. I was impressed by some roles, but the role needs concentration and you have to know it from the outside. Sometimes you have stage fright, but I would like to play.
  • Where to start and where to end. We torn!!!

We worked a lot on the theater-in rehearsals the boys made a fuss and broke the nerves of the teachers.

When I entered the room I was amazed. It was wonderful. The Nereids were many and we had to be painted for the show. Fortunately, we were not caught in hysteria.

WE WERE ALL PERFECT

The audience encouraged us a lot. In the scene of Tekros fell LAUGHTER. And when the Nereids came out and danced they said ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ. I was very happy. Of course there was a stinging in the rap song, but that wasn't a problem. I didn't expect such encouragement from the public, really.

For me, our theatre was the best and I was glad that this year I participated too. I also liked the scene of Theoni, the music, the lighting. We did better than rehearsals.

  • It was a special experience, no matter what I didn't participate in. I really liked the teamwork that the children had. I regretted very much that I wasn't in the group , next time I'll think about it better.
  • During the rehearsals we gathered all the girls, talked and came closer.

We were all trying together for a good result and even though we were sometimes heavy, now that it is over I don't like it.

Even on the way to the theater, on the bus the Nereids said all the words loudly to remember them better.

When we entered the reading room of Agiassos I was very glad that it was big and had a lot of seats and a big tent. The scenery was great and we took pictures with the Nile as a background. In the dressing rooms it was a little sad but instead of teasing me I liked it even more.

When we put on our uniforms they were great. I wanted to fly out of my joy. I couldn't shut my mouth, I just laughed.

Luckily we didn't have much stress. We were very well prepared. The ladies and we have done a very good job and I thank them very much.The experience was wonderful.

The lighting of the theater was also very convenient because when we went out the Nereids we did not see the world and that was comforting.

On stage we made some mistakes. There my hands began to sweat, but I liked that we covered them and the world did not understand anything.We were with the t-shirts and we were warming up.Who to think on stage the cold. It was only backstage that we were beating.

When we went out and bowed, it was great there. I could hear the applause and feel like we had all played perfectly. Backstage there was mayhem.We were squeaking, we were hugging children and teachers. It was great. I would like to thank the teachers and the children who built the theatre so well and with such joy and vitality.

Also the children from Lemnos who watched us congratulated us and raised us a lot.A week now only that's what I'm thinking about…
