Kaili-Ann Akimseu

This past week was a pretty good kickoff to the Akimseu/Franco production of Proof by David Auburn. We made a lot of progress during Thursday's class period and received some great feedback as well. Unfortunately, we were unable to meet over the weekend because I (Kaili) was camping and hunting for mushrooms, hit me up if you wanna see pics :D. But then yaaaaay I returned and Emma and I linked up on Monday afternoon to rehearse more. We went through the first two minutes of our scene in the Akin lounge (honestly not the greatest idea because there was a lot of traffic in and out of the lounge, so it was pretty distracting) but we powered through! We wanted to set the scene as best as we could, so thankfully there were some bed frames casually in the lounge, almost as if Akin knew that we would need them. We created our own makeshift "porch" and ran through our scenes about ten times before we could find a run through that would satisfy us. We used a lot more movement, rather than just sitting in the chairs and was able to create a more intense scene. The ending of our scene is my personal favorite because it is the start of where sh** goes down, but you all will not be able to see that until next week . Check out some pics of what we did, taken by my lovely friend Angelica

This is my favorite:
