Times and critiques

COMMIT TO MEMORY

Especially that Ellen
10
How did it go?
15
I thought to myself
20
Edwin: Picture of Jesus
25
Lord will provide
30
You were harsh
35
I was at the mercy
36:12
 

Everyone
Act and react – listen
Wait a beat, do the fart face (if you haven’t reacted), before exiting the scene.
All actors fill out costume plots and turn in on Monday.
Pay $5 and list what you want as snacks.
I need to know what you want from Subway for Saturday’s lunch.
On Friday, be in my room by 9. Wear T shirts.  We will leave SHS at 9:45 and will eat at Furrs on return.
Monday and Tuesday – rehearsals at 5:30
No rehearsal Thursday because of track meet.
LEN
Ask for help to make you more repulsive.
What a woman? Drink, ahh and belch 
Maggie
Look to see that Harry is gone before saying you’ve got to watch him
Good evening lord tartaden
Wear shawl whenever you are out.
Harry
Don’t touch Lady H’s arm as she exits – bow or something as a good bye.
Annie
Examined for diseases
Gut girls
Make a big a transition as Maggie does when getting to go outside to eat sarnies – make sure that everyone knows you are outside.  Weather is cold, but smells so much better.
Don’t let laughter die abruptly after fallen women.  Maggie have more fun with that scene.  Laugh so hard that you almost wet your pants. – let the frivolity melt into the lantern scene.
Lantern scene – amazed words
Crikey
Bloody marvelous
This is one off
It’s spiffing – good
I’m gobsmacked – surprised
Quiet moving furniture in scene where Lady H and Priscilla are talking about the bruise
Lord will provide – squeal laugh – you finally figured out why Polly has so many pockets – watch out for Harry
Faces out at the end.
Emily & Annie
Make it obvious Emily is telling Annie about sheep gutting.
JIm
React to Ellen saying – Lady H wants to change women not men. Beat then exit.
Lady H
Flabbergasted that Polly has finished.
Maids
Be sure to be amazed by lantern
Priscilla, Helena, Tarty and Arthur
Gloves off in houses

  1. I think everyone needs to work on staying consistent with their accents. It takes everyone a while to get into character, but once everyone does it looks much more natural. Try and flow together better and don't look expectant for each line. Y'all are doing great!

  2. i think Jonah's character has improved so much! I still think you can play more of a douche though. Mark i think you can be more gross. don't be afraid to make a fool of yourself!! because you are a fool to us as Len (sorry) Brooke i can tell your diction has gotten so much better!! Be sure to watch your breath and the way your mouth is because sometimes it looks like you're smiling. I'm so proud of us!

  3. In know in the first scenes i feel like I can't move or make any noise but like they said yesterday, the audience will only remember our actions really so it's important that we are still big like the time we did it silently. I also think that some of the ideas and little things like showing how your character has changed through every scene that we focused on at the beginning of the season should be brought back. We have a great show now we just have to focus on the little things

  4. I LOVED how Lou played with tempo. It made a huge difference especially if there are multiple Tempo in one sentence. Also remember to pronounce endings more. We lost both on Sunday.

  5. i have more things to add after we had Stacey come and critique us. I loved what she said to Maky and Eli! i never thought about this but you do need to develops a relationship so fast with Ash. this man has taken every ounce of trust and hope you have. you are insecure and rely on him with everything. so why would you open up so quickly to a stranger? be more guarded and fragile. Eli, you shouldn't have to put your hands on Maky to let us know you are an abusive man. This has probably been going on since you met her so maybe you're thing isn't necessarily hitting her anymore. maybe you find something to do that's just as worse. does that make sense? maky fears you every time you walk in the door. she doesn't need to be hit to know you are abusive.

  7. Don't forget to enunciate every consonant you can if u need a tip try saying your lines more slowly that really helps with pronounciation

  10. Have a steady place throughout the show and make sure consonants are hit.

  11. The ending has now become amazing!!! We just have to make sure we don't go over time.

  12. I absolutely love the end! Make sure to watch the lighting in Ellen's room scene. Try to lean into each other more to get in to the light. So proud of y'all, keep up the hard work!

  13. This is one of the biggest things for me. During the slow motion scenes, it appears as if half of you are moving in a slightly jarring manner. If you would pretend that you are underwater in these scenes, it would make your movements much more fluid and natural while still maintaining that level of resistance against your jarring body motions
