Release that Witch - Chapter 278

[Chapter 277 Theater Conflict]

Longsong Fortress, Theater Theater Performance Hall.

With the continuous whistle and cheers from the audience, the curtain fell slowly.

May wiped the sweat from her forehead, looked at Irene who was looking excited and expectant, and nodded slightly twice.

This affirmation made Irene cheer aloud, and as soon as the curtain fell, she couldn’t help but rushed forward and hugged May out of her arms.

“Hahaha, am I really good at acting?” I was so

annoyed, Mei rolled her eyes and pushed her away, “It’s still a bit of progress, I can go on stage independently.”

“Miss Mei, then… I What about it?” Another witch player, Luo Xia, asked cautiously.

“You’re far from it,” she said without hesitation. “The stiff expression, the slow movements, the lack of emotion in the lines, two mistakes in the second act and one in the fourth act are typical. Didn’t memorize the script.”

“Haha, Miss May is really strict,” Gate said, rubbing the back of his head, “but the audience’s response seems to be very good, listen, the applause has not subsided yet.”

“Most of these people came from Commoners who have never been to the theater, theater is a novelty for them,” May said bluntly, “If it is a normal performance, those few mistakes are enough to make the nobles boo.” She paused, “If you want to On the road of being an actor, don’t be satisfied with temporary success, only by constantly improving yourself can you gain a firm foothold on the stage.”

“Yes, thank you for your guidance!” Everyone bowed their heads in unison.

Mei Yi sighed, and came again, obviously she couldn’t be regarded as the drama mentor of this group of people at all.

But she didn’t bother to worry about such trivial matters, “Okay, keep working hard. “The Witch Diary” has been scheduled until September, and we still have several rounds to perform. This is a rare opportunity, don’t miss it.”

“Yes!”

Mei Yi received a notice from the Ministry of Education a month ago to let all the crew members go to the Longsong Fortress to perform.

The so-called all members are just a few miscellaneous actors who followed her to the border, plus Irene Hilt.

Perhaps His Royal Highness reached an agreement with the agent Pei Luo, and the theater specially cleared out a series of vacancies for the crew to perform the “Witch Diary” trilogy.

So, this group of miscellaneous actors with unfamiliar acting skills and not even newcomers stepped onto the big stage of the Fortress Theater in a grand manner.

In normal times, they are unlikely to be selected even if they show up as supporting roles, but now they appear on the stage as important roles, and they also perform hand in hand with themselves as the stars of the Western Region. impermanence.

Backstage, May couldn’t help frowning.

A group of people in the lounge were noisy, as if they were arguing about something. When Mei Yi and his party appeared, more than a dozen people surrounded them under the leadership of a woman.

These people are all actors in the theater, and the leading woman, Mei Yi, also knows her name is Bella Dean. She is a well-known actor and belongs to a different crew than herself.

Some nobles once thought that she was the biggest contender for the star of the western region, but in fact, whether it is acting skills or reputation, she has always firmly overwhelmed her opponent.

“Guess what I saw?” Bella bypassed May and walked up to Irene step by step, “A group of crappy actors who sneaked back from a small place in the countryside.”

“What did you say?” Irene asked with a puzzled look on her face. But Gaite, Luoxia and the others froze, and couldn’t help but take two steps back.

“Pfft,” Bella covered her mouth and said, “Look, she doesn’t know her identity.” These words caused a burst of laughter from the crowd, “Then let me just say it, a big city like Longsong Fortress is not The place where you should come, and the Fortress Theater also does not welcome such low-quality, vulgar third-rate performances. What is the Witch Diary? It

‘s better to go back to Border Town.”

“You” Irene blushed suddenly, “What is a third-rate show, didn’t you hear the applause from the audience?”

“Hah, the audience?” Bella sneered disdainfully. “You call those people who deal with mud, hoes, and kilns every day the audience? Don’t laugh at me! Even if you catch a few monkeys and walk around, they will Would you applaud loudly! If the tickets weren’t free, would they have spare money to watch your performance?”

“I…” Irene opened her mouth, but didn’t know how to refute.

“In order to arrange your three performances a week, the theater’s income has dropped by several percent in a row, and even we have been affected. As long as we are in line with your drama, the nobles will not come to see it at all!” Bella raised her voice, ” Who would want to sit on a chair full of mud and oil? If it were me, I wouldn’t want to step into a messy theater after a group of country bumpkins carnival.” The

other party obviously came to find fault, May thought, little The sudden insertion of the town crew did squeeze out many people’s chances of acting, but Bella Dean was not affected too much.

According to the news from some acquaintances, after she left Longsong Fortress, the theater deliberately made her a new star of the West Region, so it was naturally impossible to cancel the play she starred in.

Then the purpose of Bella’s actions is obvious.

She seemed to be scolding Irene and the others, but she was actually targeting herself. If these people backed down, she would not be able to continue acting the Witch Diary by herself, so she could only return to Border Town in despair.

In this way, she defeated herself in a head-to-head confrontation, and also restored the chances of other actors to appear on the stage. The prestige will inevitably rise, thus establishing the status of a new generation of stars in the western region.

But she never let herself be a stepping stone for others.

“Are you serious about the decline in theater income?” May turned around and said casually, “Because the exemption of tickets caused the theater to make ends meet, why did you come to such a naive conclusion. The theater operator has undoubtedly communicated with His Royal Highness, Pei Mr. Luo has reached an agreement, and the lack of expenses will naturally be made up by the Border Town City Hall. This is a business contract, not a play, you should really use your brain instead of yelling here based on your imagination.”

” You… what nonsense are you talking about!”

“Besides, it’s just you miscellaneous actors with low acting skills who have lost their income.” She smiled slightly, “I once performed at the Abelon Theater in Wangdu, which is an open-air theater. It’s raining, but the nobles still filled all the seats. So you said that because of common people’s reasons, they don’t want to come to watch the performance? No, they just don’t like to make a special trip to enjoy the performance of a group of monkeys.”

“…” The scene fell into an eerie silence, not only did no one stand up to accuse her, even no one defended her.

“Lastly, you said that “The Witch Diary” is vulgar and is the struggle and howl of a bereaved dog?” Mei raised the corners of her mouth, but her voice was extremely cold, “I may have forgotten to tell you that the script of this story was written by His Royal Highness Yes, do you want to say that His Highness’s ideas are vulgar and vulgar? To insult the royal family and nobles, you will be punished by beheading your tongue, are you still going to stick to your point of view?” She looked at the crowd behind Bella, “Or among you Anyone want to try?”

Under her gaze, more than a dozen actors stepped back one after another.

“Enough!” Bella gritted her teeth, “Since you went to Border Town, you shouldn’t come back! Do you think I don’t know, May! The reason why you went to that crappy place was not to meet Irene. Idiot, but for dawn”

“Pa!”

Her voice stopped abruptly, and a bright red palm print appeared on her left cheek, Bella touched her face in disbelief, “You, you dare to hit, Hit…”

Huh, she was still impulsive after all, Mei Yi took a deep breath.

In this way, you may encounter some troubles.

Sure enough, two actors came out from behind Bella, “Miss May, you are going too far.”

“You don’t know the importance of appearance to an actor, do you? She needs to apologize.”

Apologize?

Doesn’t that prove that you are wrong?

Mei Yi sneered in her heart, impulsiveness is impulsive, UU reading www.sonicmtl.

She looked sullenly at the two greasy-haired and pink-faced men, and couldn’t help but think of what Carter Lannis had said in her mind.

Regardless of men’s strength, they also have many weaknesses. Attacks on the eyes and throat will cause them to lose their resistance instantly, and of course… there is also between the legs.

As long as you are quick and decisive, it is not impossible to knock down men who are much stronger than you.

Although she didn’t quite know how she got to this point with him, she was already ready to step out, just waiting for the two of them to get closer…

At this moment, the door of the lounge was pushed open violently , A knight in armor walked in, followed by several warriors holding spears, and when they entered the room, they pointed their spears at the crowd.

“I heard that someone here is slandering His Royal Highness Roland and plotting against His Highness’ crew?”

May couldn’t help being stunned. She blinked, thinking that what she saw was an illusion.

However, nothing had changed. She also saw that the knight in front of him was actually Carter Lannis who was secretly smiling towards her.
