Everyone

Hallelujah!
HOPE IS NEAR!
We are contenders!
I’m going to be nit picky
If anyone wants to go to Seminole on Tuesday, let me know. We can only take five and Paige and Jonathan are going - so there are three spots left.

Ratched

This was your best – I disliked you.
Enter faster and interrupt the aides.
Interrupt Flinn and walk off before she is finished.
Interrupt defunct line and move more CStage.
We need to see the decision to say Billy Bibbit and his speech
problem.
Say may terminate to Spivey.
Neck brace
Use the window more. Have it
closed unless you are speaking to the men.
From Teresa
Please (look out
over audience’s heads) Beat -Look at Mac and say the rest of the line – shut the
window.
Would anyone Like
to begin
Be denied.
First…for 30 days – walk among the men.
Don’t cross arms
After billy’s death, don’t stop – head straight for Mac with
determination. Barrel into Mac.
From Reagan - react to the bell and look at the clock or look at your wristwatch.
We still need to get meetings started on time.

Men
|
Bench needs to be down.
Commit to being crazy so that Harding’s line will make sense about SILENCE!
Thanks for the people noises
React to the door and entrance.
2nd dance – come in as puppets.
Step on lines in the first therapy session. It DRUG!
Hide the red on stage somewhere so that we can start that scene
earlier.
LOONIES, Remember to hide when you leave following bedtime &
watch them wheel Mac in.
Pecking party – the therapy session – you are supposed to peck at
each other like chickens.
The reaction to Candy’s entrance was too staged. When you hear her heels walk – perk up. Everyone is in love with her at first
sight. Stop in the middle of putting chairs back. You need to be 90% more
infatuated with her essence.
You all are still not reacting to Sandra and Candy enough.

Medical people

Wheel Mac in as Nurse Ratched is speaking to the boys. You should be coming in as the loonies are
exiting.
When the poem starts to go slower, you should be through – too much
time in electro shock.
Clean up the area following the party quickly.
|
|
Music
|
Interrupt Harding’s therapeutic silence with the door.
|
|
Mac
|
It’s a sure thing – hit thing and bring it down.
Heya – say it on the way to the table.
Whistle sooner after second dance.
Enter asap.
Talk to Billy about being funny with the muh….
This was your best performance.

Billy
|
Excellent job trying to get people to notice Mac’s entrance. You helped create the ensemble so well.
|
|
Lights
|
Light on the guards entering USL when they come through with
flashlight.
Lights off the patients during Electro shock.
Overall the lights were great!

Excellent talking to Harding when Ratched attacked Billy.

The best you have done. You
had such feeling talking about your father.
Loved the end.

Before the fight scene, loved the way you hit the chief.

Loved the way you held Mac back… make that part of the play.
|

Sandra
|
Great job tonight. You were so
much better tonight. Read the
instructions for Sandra on the blog for the party scene. You and Brooke are
still in the running for the role.
Good job giggling in. Throw a beer bottle in the trash can so it will be used.

Martini

You were focused and the smile was great!

for you.

Great job keeping the set together. Loved you peeking out the window

the rehearsal was great tonight everyone did so good in putting out so much effort! I could tell the ending got a lot better its not so dull the toilet paper was a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI wasn't there last night so I don't know how it went, so we usually need more energy and stepping on lines. I feel if we step on lines we won't need to cut very much more.
ReplyDelete-Brooke
So so happy we finally have it all coming together. Also, if we step on lines even more I think it will help trim some time off.
ReplyDeleteWe had a good rehearsal last night. We were over time, but we accomplished a lot character wise.
ReplyDeleteLast night was really good! Good job you guys! We just need to step on lines and have more people noises throughout the play! Good job again!
ReplyDeleteLast night was really great I feel like the first part really drug we can fix this easily
ReplyDeleteMy mom said that she had some trouble hearing a few of us at the public performance so I guess we could project a little more
ReplyDeleteThe party scene is worked better last night with a little more practice we can easily make it one of the best scenes
ReplyDeleteAre practices are improving a lot but we still have work to do. We all need to bring energy to every practice as we did on Thursday. It improved our characters and makes the whole show better. Time has been a issue but having energy, stepping on lines will assure we can make it under time.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry I couldn't make it last night the doctor took forever but it sounds like we made good progress I wish I could've been there to contribute
ReplyDeleteGood job guys. Stepping on lines and making trasitions smoother will help with time.
ReplyDeleteWe had a great practice last night but still have things to work on. we need to continue to work on stepping on lines to cut down on time. The party scene improved by a ton and if we keep working like we did last night we have a shot at winning district.
ReplyDeleteSorry I wasn't there til the last like 5 minutes of practice!! But from the tiny bit I saw and what i've heard about it it was a great practice!! We just need to fix the tiny little details and we should have a great show.
ReplyDeleteGreat rehearsal last night guys. If we improve every practice like we did last night, we will be well on our way to our goal of winning distrcit and advancing. The party scene improved tremendously because of the high energy level from everyone involved. Awesome practice and lets keep it up!
ReplyDeleteAnother thing to be worked on is myslef as Williams and Austin as Spivey. I feel Austin being a big guy being afraid of Ratched could be a great asset to our play.
ReplyDeleteI think that one of the main places that is dragging is the beginning so if we just fix that and make therapy sessions a little faster we should be able to fix any timing issues.
ReplyDeletemy first year in one act has been a blast so far! WE are getting closer and closer so remember people noises and hand movements! love yall!
ReplyDeletewe came a long way from the begging of oap. lets not stop and giving up we can do this just keep improving each practice
