Helmi and the Gang
9:15 pm
Time sure flies.
Particularly since I'm so immensely in love with my fellow club members, and SYF is in one month's time, which I predict will leave us only a week's worth of preparation left.
Scratch that.
I think it would amount to half a week.
But it pains me to think that soon, I would be graduating, and leaving behind all these wonderful, dramatic souls. What would I miss the most?
I would miss being able to look stupid in front of the people I know as my 2nd family, from Mama Tang and makcik Quraisya to our youngest brother Hakim 2 and Hong Wei (old man), and not be self-conscious about it.
I would miss having liberal and eerily open-minded people as company.
And I would sure miss our close knit circle of friends. Honestly speaking, I think most of my best friends are from KPDT.
And I would miss the way Miss Tang looks after me like my own mama, and the way Mr. Helmi affectionately forgets our names. I am sure Shazlin, or Sahzrin, Dellysda, or Dalisdah and Natalie Neo, or shall I say, Nataliar Tan would agree with me.
But as some saying from some wise old (presumably dead) man goes, "Most peole think too much abut the past and spend too much time planning the future to live the present."
And our present issue would be surpassing SYF unscathed and in working condition. Haha just kidding. But I think we could really put in more effort to focus in rehearsals, and as time progresses, our rehearsals are going to get even more intense, so we better be ready.
The Secondary 1s are quite new to this whole drama deal so they don;t know, but actually, we've been hoping for the SYF judges to be experts in drama rather than rigid MOE people who judge us based on enunciation and entertainment value.
Is that what our CCA about? Something as superficial as entertainment value?
If anything, I believe that the fact that the SYF judges are drama experts are an advantage to us, and owuld elevate us to the position of at least a silver.
But to get to the silver, obviously we need to put in more effort than what we are currently giving.
So bottomline is
GET INTO SHAPE PEOPLE! MOVE IT!
XOXO

History
We are the
Drama group from
Kranji Secondary School,
K Productions Drama Team (KPDT). We started off as
Kranji’s
English Literary Drama and Debate Society (ELDDS) in 2002 but merged with the school’s
AVA/PA Club in
2008 to form
K Productions. Now, we are known as K Productions Drama Team while the AVA/PA Club is known as K
Productions Technical Team. We have over 50 members from Secondary One to Four and we are trained every week by a
professional trainer,
Mr Fita Helmi and our very own school teacher,
Ms Geraldine Tang, who is a Speech and
Drama teacher.
Aims & Objectives
Our aim is to provide our members with an all-rounded education in theatre skills.
K Productions Drama Team provides a holistic approach to Drama education. Not only do we train the students
on
acting, we ensure that our members are exposed to
all aspects of theatre, including
script writing and
even
production management. Our club members also learn about
lighting and sound, essential elements
needed for a possible and successful performance. Students are also taught to
direct their own plays.
For example, during our recent October double-bill, the play Over The Wall was directed by our very own
K Productions Drama Team member who was
guided by our trainer. Our students are strongly
encouraged to
create their own play which allows them to
stretch their creativity and leadership to the maximum and most
importantly,
work as a team. Through excursions and annual camps, we expose our students to different
components of drama. Our CCA also hopes to create an opportunity for our pupils to relax and engage one
another in a
creative English speaking environment. We are always on the look out for students
passionate
about the Arts.
