Rehearsal - drumming

In this lesson we rehearsed act 2 without script, I need to add movement to my character and insure confidence with my lines, to get a smoother run of the play.

How am i going to do this?
     1. Create 5 gestures to my character that i can repeat so I'm not standing stationary.
     2. Read lines every night before bed as it is proven to stick in your head.

- In the second half Ben also does the same jump as me. Below is a video of Ben practicing his fall.

We then Rehearsed act 2 again but introducing Tim the drummer, it worked really well as it was raw and not over rehearsed. Tim was able to add drumming beats to enhance the movement and performance. Next lesson everyone has been told to bring in a prop i.e mask/juggling ball. This is so we can practise with the props we need so it doesn't look unrehearsed on the actual day.

- Think about using cardboard to create set i.e moving car, that we can pick up to move on and off stage in the Animal Taming Routine for Elle, Dylan and Dani. I have researched ideas on you tube.
Below is a video of how to make a cardboard car, it looks amazing but too complex to make in the time we have but was a good idea to think about in another production where I have extra time to make something incredible like the following.

- Next week bring in costumes. Black skirt / blazer / white shirt
Production role; helping choreography and costume
