Practice Makes Perfect

This week we rehearsed Act IV and then next week we will rehearse Act V during co-op.

I am pleased to say that everyone was so focused the last couple of rehearsals and things are looking good!

MEMORIZE, MEMORIZE, MEMORIZE

Today we did actor's training on improvisation and then ran through the blocking for Act III.  
This week, everyone needs to work on memorizing lines.  Bring your script with you everywhere you go and work on your part!  
Next week we will do some more actor's training as well as run through blocking for Act IV.

And so it begins. . .

Today we had our first rehearsal and everyone was very focused and working hard!  I did see some of the scholars who were not writing down their stage directions, however, and I do hope that when we do Act I again, that they will not be asking where it is that they are suppose to be going.  Next week we will be rehearsing Act II. 

Also, next week please bring any costumes pieces that you have at home so that Sage and I can look over them.  Bring them to the fellowship hall before school begins on Thursday. 
We will also be starting class fifteen minutes early in order to learn our dance for the sock hop.

Thanks for all of your hard work!

Let the Rehearsals Begin!

Rehearsals begin this week!  Now, what does that mean?  It means that every Shakespeare scholar must show up to class with their binder, script and pencils.  It means that immediately after lunch, we must come to class focused and ready to work.  If we cannot come to class and get right to work, then we will stretch rehearsals into lunch time.  If you do not have a pencil, you can "buy" one from Teacher Leiloni.  "Buying" a pencil can be done through sweeping the stage, running errands for the teachers or other cleaning or working jobs.  

We are not done with actor's training yet so that means that we must come to class and start actor's training right away so that we have time to get through the entire act that we have scheduled for the day.

March 3rd - Actor's Training Week 9, Rehearsal - Act I

 

March 10th - Actor's Training Week 10, Rehearsal - Act II
