Everyone	It was a good rehearsal.  We are within 3 minutes of being where we want to be. Wednesday will be an important clinic for us. Quiet backstage React to the door slam Stay in character Don’t drag props and set Levels Come in on time Step on lines Not enough energy Straight lines Don't all stand the same way Quiet in light booth Don’t stomp feet Practice second dance Watch words that are not in the script Puppet spacing is wrong Do not stand in a straight line. Hit a level if the person next to you is doing the same thing. Do not wait on lines. Who’s this – line should be sooner BET WITH CIGARETTES !st group therapy meeting should be closer to Ratched. Listen to each other. If someone is talking – they are the focus of the scene. When Ratched says – Mr. Harding stated. … there should be a reaction of relief that it wasn’t you. Focus on who is talking Watch being in the same physical form – one point everyone’s head was down after TV scene. DO NOT WALK BEHIND THE SCRIM Don’t block Billy’s exit with Candy Do the Ratched scene the way we used to do it.
Paige	focus on what’s going on make sure we can’t see your arm during second dance work on facial during shocking scene/DICTION           Good facial expressions
Jared and Graham	Cut the Maxwell Jones Freud lines
Sydney	louder/talk over the music/louder/walk with attitude/happy feet/ don’t step back /slow down/louder/don’t move when supposed to be frozen/diction/come out sooner/walk out like you are hurt IF you don’t mind should be earlier. Enter LS during scene with bedtime line.
Music	Make sure music is soft when someone is talking Be prepared to fade music when Ty is starting to talk Sound effects are off. (geese) Electrode music was late
Lights	Go back to the way we used to do Ratched appearing.
Lights and Music	Lights and music must fade
Tucker	Too much swaying stand like a doctor/don't look awkward You have no previous history – look in folder “feigning…. “ is a quote so look at the folder Watch swaying You were late on an entrance
Austin and Nolan-	don’t say things that are not in the script/stay behind curtains when not on stage
Martini	Great characterization. Watch blocking Mac on here comes the champs.
Hayden	stay frozen Don’t pause before your lines. You can’t use words not in the script – running off – I hate her
Graham	good on focusing on what's going on I wanted a womanly woman -  Think about this line.  You wanted a woman with a figure to prove that a “sensitive” man could dispel thoughts of others that he was too feminine.
Jared	Slow down watch diction React when Ratched is describing you at the beginning. Did you say, “Cheese it.”?
Cody	Diction Good leg shake Great news line Cheat to the audience when you say “bringing up a vote” line Good shaking the box Where they got him – faster.
Graham	Wipe your clothes any time anyone touches you.
Cheswick	You forgot the fast walk
Brodie	Notice and reach for Paige any time she is in your proximity. Wink at her. Do the shuffle feet dance when you are excited.
Kayla	Sydney’s dress was uneven when she went out with both on.
Brooke	When Bromden is speaking – just a blue light on the window – I think I programmed it wrong.
Sydney and Jared	Breaking everyone of them – move upstage of Ty
Austin	Wait until “I bet $10.” To go tell the nurse – I told you wrong. Also, on why using red when Ratched’s slip is red.  She has tried all of her life not to be human – the red slip shows her humanity.
Aides	Stay busy Keep holding Mac until he is past the curtain.
Nolan	Good reaction to the television – you were smiling – do not let Ratched catch you.
To Do	Fix gurney fix big box Lock for cabinet Paint underside of desk Paint capitals Clean windows Fix record player White pants Make cue 10 shorter Tone down the geese Food company for gloves Lights burned out Put thunder in crazy Make sure sign(clip bored) is on the other side of gurney Fix the last song Thunder Puppet spacing is wrong Cut the music shorter on You jumped. Cut Candy music Rain no thunder
