Coming out of retirement
It is almost a year now since I declared my sort of retirement from the stage. I switched from acting to directing. After my debut directorial, I realized that I prefer to be on stage again. I can still direct but I prefer to act. I am not shying away from directing but I want to go back to the stage. It is not that I miss the limelight but I find acting very relaxing.
Ever since I dragged my butt all the way from up North to Central Malaysia, every person who knows of my performing background has asked if I was back on stage. When I said I am working as a trainer, they found it extremely odd.
“With the people you know and the opportunities here, you should go back on stage!� Screamed a friend of mine.
But then again, KL is very much different from Penang. Personally, I want to go back to acting. But I promised myself, I will only do that after I have settled down with the move.
Watching various performances lately have made me crave for the stage even more. It is the best rush of adrenaline you can get. Plus, the support I have been getting from my RC team has been really great.
So watch this space…
Adeline will be storming your local theaters soon.
