Against The Phobia
Though I reject all the offers but I could'nt refuse the offer laid down by my father to act on the annual program of their office
The stage manager and the director of the play was a bit concerned of my phobia and did all lectures possible to encourage me. My co-actors who seem to laugh at my sternatution also gave me moral support as it was the matter of the office's reputation as reputed chief guests were being called upon the program.
For me the act was way beyond this. More than myself I was more concerned about my Father. If I didnt perform well,my father's position would be at stake.
So acquiring all the self-courage and bravery, I went through the whole script, prayed to give my best perfomance without sternutating once and moved towards the stage.
Through the sidelines of the stage, I saw the whole group of people sitting around and front of the stage which will sum up to almost fifty thousand and more. At this view my heart started beating faster as the anchor announced the play and introduced the characters to the audience.As i heard my name,my heartbeat stopped for a moment and then started beating faster than usual.
The first act of the play was over and the manager gestured that it was my time to enter the stage.The play was about two brothers of contrasting nature. One would believe that technology will serve the world while the other believed that it is the duty of every individual to conserve the environment and believed that technology was a curse to the environment. I played the role of Mr.Ellsworth, the friend of the environmentalist who will do everthing to make the other brother understand the advantages of conserving the environment and make the two brothers unite.The argument between the two brothers took place and the stage was well set up for me to enter.
I stepped.
"Is this the way to behave with your elder brother, Greame?".
"You please stay away from our family matters".
"He is more than a brother to me",said Abraham.
"Shut your mouth up dude!!!!
I said"How dare ýòòoooouuu....ahhhhhhh.....chuuuuuuuuuuuu....!!!!...
"Oh! No", I said to myself as I sternutate once more."what will happen now",said Greame tensedly.
"See abraham, inspite of my illness and high fever i have come up to you to make you understand the right thing." I said hurriedly.
Abraham and Greame understood that I tried to use my sternutation as an extra attribute to my character and they smiled and said their lines as scripted.
We continued to potray our characters and I too continued to sternutate showing the audience that Mr.Ellsworth was ill.
But I never knew there was more trouble to come.....!!!!
