Harrow International Shenzhen proudly presented three “Shrek The Musical JR.” performances

“在参与《怪物史瑞克》的演出旅程中，我们大部分演职人员包括我自己在内，之前根本不知道如何在舞台上打造和演出一场真正的音乐剧！但是，在老师和团队每一位成员的全力支持下，我逐渐学会了如何塑造并呈现出史瑞克这一经典角色。”

“当我第一次知悉自己将扮演主角时，我非常紧张。感谢剧组老师们帮我在唱歌和演技上松弛下来。尤其是在唱歌方面，我学会了如何自信地使用声音！”

“我认为，深刻理解驴子的本质至关重要。他不只是个配角，他是史莱克的忠实伙伴，时而令人捧腹，时而稍显烦人，但总能给故事增添幽默与温暖。为了表达这些层次，我深入挖掘了这个角色的各种小性格、动机和习惯。从他机智的“老干妈”笑话到那些让人倍感亲切的脆弱瞬间，驴子的每一个性格细节都被我精心雕琢，期望与观众产生强烈的共鸣。”

“在剧中，皮诺曹撒谎的那一刻，乐队会创造性地演奏一种“嘟”声，模仿他的鼻子伸长，而我会轻轻仰头，巧妙地呈现这一幽默场景。扮演青少年菲奥娜时，我全身心投入，表现出她对浪漫故事的狂热向往，就像歌曲中描述的那样，她憧憬着一位英勇的骑士前来拯救，带给她梦寐以求的完美结局。”

“我很荣幸受音乐总监Ricky Ware先生的邀请，参加音乐剧《怪物史瑞克》的表演。这次经历与以往的练习截然不同！乐队的加入为整个戏剧增添了无限的新奇和刺激感。与老师、同学们共同演出，真是一次难忘又精彩的体验！”

“In my journey through Shrek the Musical, most of the cast, including me, had no prior knowledge of how to create and perform a real musical show on stage. However, with the support of teachers and everyone else on the team, I have mastered the character of Shrek.”

“When I first found out I was a lead character, I was nervous; however, my teachers helped me feel comfortable when singing and acting. Specifically with my singing, I needed some support when it came to confidence with my voice.”

“I think understanding the essence of Donkey was crucial. He’s not just a sidekick, he’s Shrek’s loyal and sometimes annoying companion who brings humor and heart to the story. To convey this, I delved deep into the character’s quirks, motivations and mannerisms. From his witty “Lao Gan Ma” joke to his endearing moments of vulnerability, every aspect of Donkey’s personality was carefully crafted to resonate with the audience.”

“There are some instances in the show when Pinocchio lies and during those moments, the pit band would play a “boop” kind of noise like how Pinocchio’s nose grows when he lies and I tilt my head back slightly to meme the growing of the nose. When acting as teen Fiona, I try to act like a delusional teenager like how the song conveys how Fiona longs for a knight in shining armour to come rescue her and give her the happy ending every princess like her should have.”

“I am honored to have been invited by Mr. Ware to perform in the musical “Shrek.” The experience was fascinating and thrilling, as having a live band accompany the play was a delightful departure from my usual practice routines. Performing alongside my teachers and classmates was truly an incredible experience!”

“The most important factor for me before and during this production was to have fun. Being nervous and anxious will bring you despair! Not enjoying what you’re doing, causes boredom in your audience. Trying to create as little distance between yourself and the character is also important. I did this by placing myself in Farquaad’s tiny shoes enabling me to feel his insolence.”

“One of the biggest challenges I faced in presenting this character mainly revolve around wearing the Dragon head and performing in it. Singing inside feels stuffy and hot. As I can only see the outside through the mouth of the Dragon, it’s quite difficult to know when and where I should be on stage.”

“Between the flurry of props, costumes, and set changes, I experienced the rush of making things happen behind the scenes. From swiftly managing set pieces to ensuring seamless transitions, every moment was a thrilling challenge. The crew worked tirelessly to bring the magical world of Shrek to life. It was a truly unforgettable experience that taught me the power of teamwork and the hidden magic that exists beyond the spotlight.”
