C854 Actors Are Human too
Of course, as the premier theater of the London, the name of the First Theater was well-known throughout the city. However, under the attack of the rising stars such as the Rose Theater, First Theater had never gained any advantages. It was barely able to parry the attack.
When mentioning the number one theater in the London, people would immediately think of the Rose Theater, which was the best among the rising stars. As for the First Theater with the title of "number one," it was just a boring topic to talk about after a meal.
But now, the First Theater had regained the title of number one.
It only took a short seven days.
"What on earth are they acting for?"
In the backstage of the Rose Theater, the man who was writing the script frowned.
"Filled, full, full. No matter which day it is, it is always full. If we are a few minutes late, we won't even be able to buy the cheapest ticket. Who can tell me what they are doing? Why would they do it to such an extent? Does anyone know?"
" Err... "
Facing the angry man, the staff of Rose Theater did not speak.
Every time the tickets to the First Theater were sold, they would be snatched away. There was no way to find a chance to buy them. Although there were profiteers hoarding money in the middle, the high price of the tickets made them shrink back. Besides, the Rose Theater would not give them even a cent because of this. They were too lazy to care about these miscellaneous things.
"You guys... sigh."
Sighing, the man put down the pen in his hand and rubbed his glabella in pain.
After conversing with those old classmates, he originally thought that there would definitely not be any problems on his side. After all, he was now in the top theater in the entire London. In addition, with the help of his classmates, completing the topic set up by the seniors of the Oxford Hidden Cultivators Sect was an easy task - if the task was done well enough. He and his old classmates might even be able to enter the legendary Hidden Cultivators Sect in Oxford.
However, he did not expect that just as the matter had just begun, he would already be defeated.
That's right, he had everything now - the best venue, first-rate actors, outstanding scripts, and overwhelming promotional attacks. He did not lack any of these. However, when he was about to carry out the entire project, he realized that he was missing the most crucial part.
He didn't have an audience.
The audience had all gone to First Theater.
"You have no idea how serious this matter is..."
Thinking of the terrifying consequences of not completing the mission, the man's face instantly turned pale.
"Investigate! All of you go investigate! Investigate for me at all costs! "
Wiping off the cold sweat on his forehead, the ferocious-looking man waved his fist.
"I'll pay for it! It doesn't matter how much it costs! All of you, go and investigate! "
"Investigate... Investigate what?"
Facing the furious man, some Rose Theater staff members gritted their teeth and still spoke.
"They want us to investigate what the First Theater is playing..."
"All of them! All of them!"
The man shouted at the top of his lungs.
"The script! An actor! A screenwriter! Find out what the boss of First Theater ate today! "
"You like to snatch audiences, right..."
Suppressing his fear of the seniors, the man clenched his fists even tighter.
"Who do you think you are?"
————————
"Who are you?"
In the backstage of First Theater, Shakespeare, who was holding the script, looked at the Black Armor in front of him with a serious expression.
"I am General Timur from the east!"
A terrifying roar came out from the armor, it was deafening.
"I will conquer everything in my sight!"
... "Alright, it feels like we have met."
After hesitating for a moment, Shakespeare reluctantly nodded his head.
"Probably so. You are General Timur of the East, bringing your cavalry to conquer Rome. It would be more appropriate to scare them a little, so let's do this first..."
"Don't, I don't think this role is too good."
Du Kang couldn't help but sigh.
"Why must I be a villain like Timur? Can't I just arrange a few positive roles for me? It's a huge loss to be beaten up on stage every day. "
"It's you who said that you want to hone your acting skills..."
Shakespeare had a helpless expression.
"Compared to the main character, the antagonist character can train your acting skills more. Not to mention, the antagonist character has a higher tolerance for mistakes. It doesn't matter even if you say the wrong lines. As long as you act fierce enough, it will be fine. This is the role most suitable for you."
"I..."
Du Kang was so angry that he could not speak for a long time.
What did it mean to be the most suitable villain? This was to beat around the bush and say that he did not look like a good person. Well, his current appearance didn't seem to be human.
"But... is there really no positive character suitable for me?"
Du Kang looked at Shakespeare with hope.
"There should be some strong characters, such as brave warriors..."
"The roles you play are actually all warriors. It's just that in ancient stories, warriors rob enemies, the warriors you play rob passers-by. "
Shakespeare rubbed the space between his eyebrows as he thought.
"A brave warrior... Then we can only use Greek mythology. How about you play Hercules?"
"Hercules?"
Hearing this familiar pronunciation, Du Kang was stunned for a moment.
"Who is that?"
"Hercules, a famous Titan."
Shakespeare explained casually.
"When he was young..."
"Forget it. Let's not talk about this."
A familiar name lingered by his ears, and Du Kang couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
Hercules... How could he not remember the person he brought out?
It was a pity that later on...
"Sigh."
Sighing, Du Kang suddenly lost interest.
"Uh..."
The sudden silence made Shakespeare at a loss.
"Did I say something wrong?"
"No, I just feel a little tired."
Du Kang forced a smile.
"It's fine. Let's continue."
"This... why don't you stop performing this time?"
Shakespeare keenly sensed the other party's depression.
"It's good to watch the TV Series. It just so happens that Boss Bobby is preparing to try out a new comedy in the next two days. You have been acting for a week. Take a look at the drama and relax."
... "Alright."
Du Kang nodded.
"Let Old Arthur rest for a day. He has been beaten up for a week. I think there is something wrong with his bones."
"This..."
Shakespeare could not help but shiver when he thought of the tragedy that had happened to that big shot during this period of time.
"That's good, that's good too."
Shakespeare forced a smile.
"Master Arthur is more suitable for a solemn historical drama. Dramas are not really suitable for him..."
"That's right."
Du Kang nodded.
"By the way, who is the lead actor this time?"
"The lead actor?"
Shakespeare was stunned for a moment, then patted his chest.
"I will do it myself."
