DUN DUN DUN the day of the show all the meotions running threw your head of nervs , nah thats not how i do it i face this show head on with confidence , I mean this is what we have been practicing for ages and i was determind to perform even tho my parents were unable to come i didnt care i belived that i am here to bring entertainment to any audience. My opion of the hole performance was that it was good but could have gone because i certain scenes i saw people loooking at words (not mentioning names) and I belive this should have benn learnt at leat the week before the performance . During a rehersal before the performance i had to cover for 3 seperate people as they forgot lines but that is what we do as we are a company not just a single person.my favourite scene must have been the scene romy and camerone are gtalking about monkeys it was funny and deep at the same time but the most aspect i loved was how romy played leah i mean it was like she was born for that roll and i have always said tha\t since we started DNA. the set was effective even tho we didnt have leafs or grass the swing and bench still told the audince that this particular scene is outside and Phill eating food made it all the funnier. the costumes really showed our age it really made our language ad words stand out. the main strengths of the show was the language not just threw the mouth but threw the body aswell all thanks to Miss and our physical theatre showing us the way. the weaknesses must have been standing on the side it really made the back of my feet hurt and was uncomftable but to be an actor you must push threw this but my problem was that i came out of charcter the longer the show went on.


 10-11 and a dress rehearsal 11.15-12.15 with a small invited audience to give some feedback. We will then had a chance to work through some notes from 12.15-1.00.

today was are dress rehearsal for the first time so we were all focused AND READY TO GET ON WITH IT we went threw this performance like it was a real show and it made us really know that we were performing next week. we have worked on little pieces like mine and sonias bit so the lines come out like a flow of water.for next week of the performance i need to know what im saying , who to and why , what im thinking and how i should feel at the point of it leaving my mouth.

next rehersal

on thursday we went threw the show and helped each other get off script this was useful to us because i believe that we were not ready yet for the show that was in a matter of weeks.My targets for the week are to really work on my posture for my character Mark.

17th january

Today from my notes we began the day with a few warm up exercises  to get all us actors in the mood for a hard days working i was ill so i did not get to stay but from what people told me we started with adapting on the opening sequence but i can not say anymore this would have been good for me to stay because woul have helped me to be off script

10th

today was a new year and we started it off by getting into the 3s we were previously in and try to make the opening  better by changing it the only thing we change in ours was a bag and we made the leg swap shorter timing so that we could shorten the scene by a bit this made it a bit more easy for us to follow my character has a ball in each of his scenes and we use it a lot in different ways but it shows apart of our character to the audience we haven't worked out a costume yet.we want the audience to understand that this character might be the most normal out of the lot he trys to look cool but gets worried like everyone else .we then went off into scenes and i had to work with Sonia again just to tighten up the scene and i believe it really helped and helped us to be nearly off script.

20th

in this rehearsal we managed to do a full run threw of the show this was good for us because it meant we got to watch everyone else perform. in the rehearsal i learnt that watching others can help you because it shows you maybe how to use the posture or the way they speak to your advantage but our characters were our own interpretative in own ways my target for the week would be to be fully off script soon i think the play is starting to look good and it is coming together.|Romy impressed me because i believe her personality and ability is meant for the way Leah is Romy plays her so natroliastic.
