Thursday, April 15

Morning classes (Voice and Movement) were canceled to give the actors of The Game of Love and Chance a chance to rest after their opening night.

ACTING
From here on out, we will only be working on our scenes for the Showing. The Showing will be next Thursday from 3:30pm-5:30pm in the Cook Theatre. The scenes will be:

- Julius Caesar (D-Train & O.D.)
- Much Ado About Nothing (Big Show & Two-Shots-Up)
- Measure for Measure (Iceman & Newbie; cameo by Angela)
- All's Well That Ends Well #1 (Two-Shots-Up & Wifey)
- Titus Andronicus (Thrill)
- Richard III (Angela & Big Show)
- Two Noble Kinsmen (O.D., Thrill, Newbie, & Two-Shots-Up; cameo by Iceman)
- Taming of the Shrew (Iceman & Newbie; cameos by Big Show & O.D.)
- All's Well That Ends Well #2 (Angela & D-Train)
- Comedy of Errors (All-The-Way & Killer)

All-The-Way & Killer might also each be doing a monologue... but we haven't timed the run yet, so we don't know if we'll be able to fit those in or not.


We spent most class spiking our set in the theatre, and figuring out how we're going to do all the set changes.


Here are the notes I got on Richard III:
- relax body... practice walking on stage by myself and figuring out how to cheat out without looking awkward (apparently right now I just look awkward)
- don't be afraid to play with Richard
- don't show him anything until the end when he seriously frightens her
- be innocent in all questions
- ask real questions, not rhetorical ones
- land lines, especially when ending with words like "brothers", "children", and "death"
