run through notes.

Shakespeare run through notes 28th April

Talking too slowly, not secure enough on lines, nervousness about 'speaking shakespeare'

Wait longer before touching Sophie's shoulder, allow audience to hear her humming.

Take time to get to still image, gradual transition/ understanding.

Think about use of space, using the whole stage, not forming lines.

Listen to what is going on in scene, understand what you're reacting to.

Speech, go over what we worked on, use bags.

What are you doing in every scene, who are you, what's going on, how are you feeling.

Don't come out of character when something goes wrong.



Shakespeare run through 2 Notes 28th April 
Take time getting off stage at the end of the opening.

Don't just move when you are taking, move when other things are happening too.

Remember acting to 3 sides.


Tech rehearsal notes 30th April


Spread out in opening, don't form clumps when willa starts.

Have bags for 2nd scene.

Don't be late in prologue before ship.


These are the notes we received from our run throughs this week, the initial notes from our first run are the ones i think i was able to rectify the easiest and the notes from the other runs are something i need to think more about, for example remembering to act to 3 sides and to not just move when we are talking. From doing our tech rehearsal i realised how important it is to know what exit/entrance i need to be at and when. Especially as you can't hear whats happening inside the theatre it is good to have a judgement on how long it is before your entrance so you can position yourself correctly. Furthermore its also important to know where your props are and where they need to be for your next scene so that they are ready for you there. I definitely need to look at my cues for coming on and off stage as well as when i'm on stage. I also want to look at my monologue as i still feel i need to work more on my delivery of it and working it to 3 sides.
