Acting - 02/04/2019 Today we read over our lines. It was the first time reading it as a group so I was excited to see what I could deliver and what everyone else could too. We were told that all the exotic, extraordinary characters such as Frank and Riff Raff had to be British and everyone else who seemed normal were American. I was told by my tutor that my character had to sound masculine and charming but dumb. This was exciting for me and I think everyone because it was as if the actual character was coming to life through reading the lines in that particular way. Although I don't have a lot of lines its shown in the scenes that its important I stay in character.
To do this I made sure that I used my research on body building to wield into our rehearsals.
Singing - 05/04/19 In this lesson we went over the backing vocals for "Science fiction/Double feature".
Ballet - 24//04/19 We started with barre exercises which includes lunges as usual and foot warm ups, piles, Tondus, Rond de jambe, Grande battlemont, frappes and glisses. My corrections are to fix my arms and pointed toes.
Singing - 25/04/19 Me and Ghazal had came in to go over our solo songs such as "Sword of Damocles", "Rose tint", "Hot Potootie" and "Eddie's teddy". This lesson was beneficial because it allowed us pitch and arrange our backing tracks. From this lesson I was able to work out I was going to deliver my interpretation.
Singing - 29/04/19 In this lesson went over "Time warp ", "Science fiction "and the solos for "Rose tint" .
Acting - 30/04/19 In this lesson we were asked to run through as much as scenes as possible without singing or dancing. This was very difficult because the each song specified for each scene, making it hard to stage direct and notably remember our next lines and actions.
By this point we had as a class it felt like we had repeatedly gone through things but still needed to do more which was very stressful.
Singing - 02/05/019 In this lesson we went over "Eddie's teddy ", Sword of Damocles and Dammit Janet.
Jazz - 02/05/19 We ran through the whole of rocky horror for Shannon to give us feedback. My notes were to;
- Make sure were doing exactly the same on stage/ try not to laugh.
- Try to walk like a man.
- Don't loose energy in time warp.
- Be bigger and dramatic with movements in "Sword of Damocles".
- Actually choke on eggs in "make you a man£.
- Be more animistic in "touch me".
Acting - 07/05/19 Much wasn't done in this lesson as we just went over Usherette's parts and tried some scenes off script.
Singing - 09/05/19 We ran through every song (except Brad's solo) in order.
Ballet - 15/05/19 We learnt a specialist tap warm up from Ella. It included cardio, isolation, flexible exercise and movement warm up with a ending.
Jazz - 16/05/19 After doing a brief warm up we went over our choreographies and realised we needed to polish "Time warp".
