After much discussion, our group decided to do a skit/drama for the performance. We first started out planning the basic storyline of our drama. Since our ethnic group is Bidayuh, we wanted to present a drama based on Bidayuh culture, so we did a lot of research and exchanged ideas on which aspects of Bidayuh culture we wanted to use.
We've gathered many ideas and soon found one relatively simple to prepare and easy for the audience to understand. Our drama will showcase the different and unique occupations in Bidayuh society such as the shamans, the healers/priests , the headhunters etc. We also incorporated a few key Bidayuh celebrations such as the Gawai Dayak.
After completing our planned storyline, our group started to create characters for the drama. We mostly volunteered on characters that suited our looks and quickly proceeded into planning on how are we going to act. Most of the acting will be impromptu, but our group wanted to make sure everyone is clear and did a short rehearsal during our breaks in college.
That's all for preparing for the big day, we hope you enjoy our drama. :)
