Hello readers.. I hope you are all enjoying yourself thoroughly on this lovely blog written by us lovely students.
My third rehearsal was on Tuesday during an MX block. That was the only rehearsal we had this past week because I decided to be a busy bee and go visit colleges. It was definitly a very productive rehearsal.
We started off with the 1, 2, 3 game where each person chooses a partner and together they count to 3 back and forth. This goes on for a while and then I told one of the partners to choose and sound and movement for the number 1 and then they counted using this and then 2 and 3. This continues for all the numbers. Then I told the groups to have a conversation with each other using their sound and movements. After this they partnered up with a member from the other group and tried to communicate using their different "languages". They all enjoyed it I believe and I found it very funny.
Then read through the script and I gave the actors specific spaces in the space to play off of to help them work on moving and told them to try to move to and from these spaces. When they were speaking I would give them small directions to help them move from place to place. Joel told me it looked as though I was conducting them.
Anyway, since MX is a short block we decided that it would not be helpful to do a specific staging of the show and we will be doing that this Tuesday night instead. I am really looking forward to it.
xoxo
Jill
