#TipTuesday A great way to ensure that you have the ‘Perfect Ceremony’ is to imagine your celebration as a theatre production. 🎭 From the venue, exquisite décor and flowers which serve as the set, to the enchanting music and lighting which creates the mood, every element sets the stage for an unforgettable experience. But what is a show without actors and a great script? YOU are the stars of the show in the ceremony and the ceremony script is the heart of the performance, carefully crafted to reflect your love story and create cherished memories for you, your family, and friends. The celebrant is often an overlooked aspect of a ceremony but selecting the right one is paramount, as they play a pivotal role in narrating the important story that brought everyone together whether it is to celebrate or mourn. No one element should dominate your planning process, a perfect ceremony is not about a single element; it's when the ensemble works together that the day is truly magical! Each member of the ‘event cast’ must seamlessly come together to create a beautiful memory that will last a lifetime. So, as you plan your perfect ceremony, a wedding, vow renewal, naming ceremony, life celebration or any other milestone you wish to mark in a significant way, give ample thought to your celebrant and think about how all the aspects will align on your important day! https://lnkd.in/eQxqFvtJ #TipTuesday #PerfectCeremony #Events #Weddingplanningtips #Ensemble #celebrant #wedding #namingceremony #memorials #lifecelebrations #funerals #vowrenewals #familyceremony #perfectceremonyuk #bedfordshirecelebrant #celebrate #love #loss #kentcelebrant #londoncelebrant

Do You Know Why Pine Trees Are Depicted on Noh Stages? The Connection Between Bonsai and Noh Theater The Symbolism of Pine Trees on Noh Stages Pine trees are always prominently depicted on Noh stages. When you enter a Noh theater, the first thing that catches your eye is the large pine tree painted at the back of the stage. Have you ever wondered what this pine tree means? In fact, the pine tree has a deep historical and cultural significance. Whether it’s Noh or Kyogen, a graceful or tragic play, the audience always watches the performers against the backdrop of the pine tree. The board with the painted pine tree is called the "Kagami-ita" (mirror board), and it is one of the stage props. At the Yarai Noh Theater in Kagurazaka, Shinjuku, a magnificent pine tree is also depicted on the Kagami-ita. Performing for the Gods: The Role of the Kagami-ita with the Pine Tree The name "Kagami-ita" is generally explained in connection with the "Yogo Pine" of Kasuga Taisha in Nara. "Yogo" refers to the descent of deities to the earthly realm. The pine tree, which is considered the incarnation of Kasuga Myojin, exists beside the audience, and the Kagami-ita mirrors this, implying that the actors on stage are performing not for the audience but for the gods.

🎭 YOU MAY NOT REALLY KNOW MOST PEOPLE AS WELL AS YOU THINK YOU DO 🎭 Ah, the age-old dilemma: knowing someone. Or thinking we do. We interact, we smile, we exchange pleasantries. But do we really know what’s beneath that polished surface? Spoiler alert: not always. People are like onions (or parfaits, if you prefer Shrek's analogy) – layered, complex, and sometimes they make you cry. Our understanding of others is often a delightful cocktail of limited interactions and our own creative interpretations. It’s important to remember that everyone’s got their own unique backstage drama that we might never see. From my own life’s soap opera, I’ve learned that rushing into friendships or professional alliances can sometimes lead to plot twists worthy of a prime-time slot. It’s tempting to share and connect quickly, but trust me, slow and steady wins the race (and keeps your secrets safe). In this grand play called life, some actors are better at hiding their true selves than others. So, let’s play it smart. Keep some cards close to your chest until people prove they’re not just Oscar-worthy performers. Even then, a little mystery never hurt anyone. Remember, trust is earned, not given. And while you’re at it, keep a few secrets tucked away for good measure. After all, it’s better to be safe than the star of your own cautionary tale. A word to the wise is sufficient. 🎭 #TitaFridayPH #TrustWisely #KnowYourPeople #LifeLessons #StayCautious #BuildingTrust #PersonalExperience #ProfessionalAdvice #LifeWisdom #TrustAndVerify #InnerWorlds

Let your impulses guide you⚡️ To deliver a truthful performance, actors must heavily depend on their instincts. Working off natural impulses brings out the authentic emotions needed for each scene. This approach not only enhances the emotional depth of a performance but also fosters a healthy form of improvisation. When actors trust their instincts, they can better respond to one another, creating dynamic and genuine interactions that captivate audiences. Rather than picking up on cues, actors should rely on their impulses to drive dialogue and action. For example, if a friend offers various drinks—gin, whisky, beer, scotch, vodka—the moment I hear my favorite, scotch, my instinctive reaction is to turn and ask for it. This natural impulse propels me towards a specific dialogue or action. Trusting these impulses over mere cues ensures a more organic and compelling performance . . . . . . . . . . #realisticacting #realism #actingtips #educator #theatre #stage #emotions #impulses #tipsandtricks
