  1. Maybe I should come in from the other side whenever I sell the bread so that way I don't have to walk in front of the GG.

  2. I need to be bigger with my actions like I was when we did it without words and I need to make like facial expressions bigger. Louder and more believable. I need to make things hit home and feel every line I say.

  3. Kate needs to kiss Jim behind the carcass after helping him with it. There are some points throughout that need more facial emotion. Magie needs a deeper scream during rape scene. There are still sime awkward gaps throughout the play.

  4. One thing i have figured out to do is picture lord T as this guy i once dated who was very bad for me. He was controlling and i was sort of afraid of him. It helps me look frightened on stage as Emily. Another thing i noticed was that when Mark speaks its like hes talking to the audience he needs to look like hes talking to the other actors and when hes on stage by himself he needs to look like hes thinking out loud not telling the audience that.

  5. A few things I noticed while watching the video: some of the last words of sentences are getting chopped short so you can't understand them as clearly. Also (and I am really bad about this) whenever we are supposed to be moving very slowly so we're not frozen, we don't keep a consistent speed. No matter what we do when we're moving slowly, it all needs to be the same speed, not getting faster or getting slower. Next, I saw Kylie shiver at the beginning like she was cold, and I thought it was really good. It looked a lot like what Lou said we needed to do to humanize our characters, so I think we need more of what Kylie did and things like it. Good job guys, let's keep working hard!

  10. •since coop says "lady helena fixed me up in service" i could keep her behind after the maid scene
    •don should whistle!!!!!
    •don't touch curtains
    •get into the character! be the character, don't just read the lines
    •we need to learn the right songs
    •if something goes wrong do what happens in life not like "oh no, i messed up on stage as an actor and now have no idea what to do!"
    •we need to sing in the right places because i tried to start one and it was poop
    •exits need work :(
    •we need to find a steady pace and keep it, we don't need tempo changes like we have
    •eli and kylie hitting looked fake
    •step on lines!!!!!!!!

    we need to practice setting and striking, we're getting pretty close to contest!

  11. Everything is coming along but everyone needs to try their best at doing something different every time on stage. Don't get stuck doing the same motion as you always do just try and do different gestures from time to time. This will help us not become staged.

  12. make sure every line you deliver has a purpose! talk to others, not at them.
    and make sure to step on lines!!
    good job guys!

  13. Don't anticipate lines and try not to look at each other before someone says there line. This will help it to not look as staged. Way better on consonants!! Maggie deeper voice in rape scene.

  14. I saw a lot of blocking in the gutting sheds at the beginning.
    Lots of times, people were profile. Cheat out a little bit more.
    There were lots of gaps between scenes.
    Maggie, in the rape scene, might need a deeper scream. It kinda sounds like you're laughing.

  15. Transitions need to ne smoother. Lights need to match with thunder. Audience needs to understand what everyone says
