FLSB full run through and filling in!
My last two rehearsals consisted of running throgh the entire show (almost all off book) and before that having me step into Isaiah's role becasue he was not there. When I had my whole cast, I first had them say the long word phrase "What a to do to die today..." The one thing that they all need to work on a lot is there announciation and how they say their lines. They speak very quickly and sometimes I have trouble hearing what they are saying. They need to emphasize certain words and phrases. I then have them play "I love you, I dont care," while I counted to ten (1 being most quiet and ten being over the top huge!) I have them do this to help build up their energy and get into going over the top, and also to speak in response to their partners. They did a run through, but I stopped them numerous times to give them notes. During our official run through, I took a page of notes and then after the run I gave the notes to the actors. In one scene, I told Isaiah to run and tag the back door of the theater between each of his lines. The actors continue to suprise me with their choices and I have loads of notes to give them tonight at rehearsal.
