Last year we bought other people play in order to create our own theater. This year we’re going to do something very different. We are going to write our own play, and act it out in the provinces. We’re going to travel to different places and show our play; this is why we called it Liger Traveling Theater. So far in this round, we write our own play. Our topic is about Critical Teen Issue (CTI), which relates to one of Liger Exploration. To make the topic more specific, the CTI teen is going to the workshop on the Teen Healthy Relationship. This topic divided into four types of relationships, teens relationship with parent, partner, peer, and society. So we also divided into four groups as well, and for me, I’m working alone. My topic for the play is teens relationship with parents. We did so many exercises about writing the play as well in class but also spent our time writing the play. The play is going to be in Khmer.
I felt very joyful in this exploration because of writing play in one of passion. Whenever I write the play I felt like this is not the assignment from the teacher. I love writing script and put myself into different types of characters in the play.
