The first section to have a go was ABMA 153 in tandem with ABMA 154.
Their performance was AWESOME. They were in costumes of black shirts, bottoms and capes and as they took to the stage, they gave everyone in the auditorium a good morning start. There was one thing I noticed, though and that was the mood they presented the poem. As I recall, one of our leaders had mentioned that having only one mood to the poem was not allowed, that's why we had a few twists in ours.
The second section to show was ABMA 154 and they left us with our eyes wide open.
We really didn't expect what they did and I don't mean that negative in any way. It felt like they were unprepared and so they rushed their practice. Not to mention, not everybody was opening their mouths. They started from the audience with Katniss Everdeen's little anthem of hope for the hopeful which made me excited but then when they hit the stage, it's as if tragedy struck. But what's important was they finished what they started and they looked happy about it. They did a great job at it at that!
The third section to hit the stage was ABMA 152.
It was like they were in a play of APC's Theatre Phileo. They went with a good start considering they had people at it with their facial expressions and such. Their screams were blood curdling which I would give praise to but their "Caged Bird" performance didn't give that much difference. If anything, they sang the poem which is not a bad thing but they could've thought it out differently. However, I commend them for their talent in theater!!
The fourth section.. was us: ABMA 151.
Being one of the performers, I wasn't sure how we looked. All I could remember was what we had practiced (apart for my HARD not to notice - mistake which I had successfully pulled myself out of). But I'm sure we wow-ed the crowd with our very different performance. I had fun!!
The second to the last section to perform was CPE 151
(Their section and the other ECE 151 won last Cheers and Chants at 1st place and champion while we bagged the 2nd place.)
They set the bars high even though they didn't have much for props. Instead, they had everything in check with their performance!
And the last section to steal everyone's attention was ECE 151
They gave a lot with their performance which was AWESOME and they moved as one as they should. I can't help but think that it felt like they didn't give their all but no matter, they were great!!
Then finally, the moment we all were waiting for. WE WON and the two other 151 sections too!
ABMA 151 - 2nd runner up
CPE 151 - 1st runner up
ECE 151 - Champion
What were the odds, right?
And to make matters better 2 of our classmates reigned champion in the Ignite competition and the Public Speaking contest!
