Watching back the show we performed to Luna and Laura

Act 1 and 2 - We need to have more energy, and enthusiasm in our play I have solved this problem by re- motivating my peers with encouragement. We also have followed and solved the notes the National theatre gave us themselves, this is evidenced in the previous post.

Act 3 -

THE SONG - CLOWN
Have the girls singing on the blocks makes it more aesthetically pleasing. Have Ben in the middle because he gets lost on the side and we want to make it symmetrical as well as showing off his talents. Make the end more slower when exiting.

CLOWN ROUTINE - Danielle gets slightly strangled when they wrap a scarf around the body, they need to be sure not to do that as its not safe and could cause an accident. We also as a cast need to make car sounds and noises so it looks obvious when they are exiting that there leaving in an imaginary car.

ANIMAL TAMING ROUTINE - No talking on stage, I saw Lauren try to talk to me but ignored her. If you talk its noticeable but don't want to distract other action happening on stage. I suggest we use masks or paint to draw on our animal faces this is so its obvious for an audience. At a section of the dance there is a silence, we need to fill the silence with animal noises as it doesn't make sense otherwise.
The routine looked fun exciting but lacked slight energy, this will be solved when we perform to an audience with adrenaline. Make sure everyone is confident with the choreography so that it looks slick and rehearsed as everyone forgot which way they jumped and the correct arms.
