19.10.2020 - Principles of Acting - Mrs Williams

 We had a small discussion period at the start of todays rehearsals on our goals for today and our goals for the week.  We then went to the common room to repeat what we did on Friday's rehearsal with the chair duets.  We've managed to fully secure what we wanted to do with this section of the piece.  For the start of our rehearsals after lunch, we went through our lines and learnt the order of them.  As 4.48 Psychosis is very abstract, the lines are quite difficult to learn and the order is even more difficult to remember.  We has to go through these for quite a long time to get everything engraved in our heads.  After we learnt the order of the lines, we continued with finishing the rest of the piece.  We then blocked where we would say our lines and the emotion each of us would say it in.  I am happy, Louis is angry, Silvana is sad and Tristan is emotionless.  We really looked into pacing and volume today, especially with the numbers section.
