Real: History-replayed

This year for our drama production, we are planning on putting on a modern versioned Shakespeare play adapted from King Lear. This would be the first full length play i am part of since joining HCIEDC club. (Maybe its because this is only my second year) When our club first heard this news, many of the members were greatly shocked by this news as many of them felt that the two new teachers were still inexperienced and doing a Shakespearian on the same year they "reign" over the club sounded pretty shocking. Others were also unwilling to be part of a Shakespeare play as Shakespeare are known the be long, draggy and extremely dull.
However, although some of the current ex-co may have felt that this idea was not really too good, they still stuck by the teacher's side and tried to encourage others to support the idea as well so as to have an excellent production for the year. Indeed our current ex-co is extremely organised and tries to think of many various ideas to help improve the club, but many people in the club frequently think of what would happen to the club after the current ex-co leaves as most of the current Sec 3s are considered "slackers" by the teachers and the idea of having some of them in the ex-co is pretty hard to comprehend. However, there are still a few enthusiastic Sec 3s that i think are capable of replacing the current ex-co. I do hope during this years election we can find a good ex-co. :D
