I'm writing this blog entry on the heels of another rehearsal with Charlotte. I've really been enjoying the scene and memorizing lines has gone well for both of us, baring a few lines here or there. All considered, I think we did very well this past performance in class today! I was surprised at how well I knew the lines and how engaged with the material of the scene I was. Personally, I still need to work on remaining grounded in the scene. I often have this tendancy to wander and pace when I'm speaking, but I feel like in order for me to really activate my lines I need to remain stationary and use the rest of my body to articulate my emotions. 

All in all, I'm very excited for our final performance. Me and Charlotte have alot of rehearsals planned, so we should be quite prepared for the final showing.

    You guys seriously nailed the performance yesterday!! I could tell you both were insanely present and the characters felt incredibly natural. I can't wait to see your final performance!

    I am really excited about the final result of this scene! In your last performance, both of you were so grounded that the tension between the characters was tangible. It was clear from an outsider's perspective that you have rehearsed a lot managing to know the beats and lines very well. Like I mentioned during class, one f the main things that distracted me a bit from the plot was the anticipation of physical actions in moments of high tension. Keep up the amazing work!

    I saw Charlotte and Adrian's performance today and was blown away at how different your performances were. They were both fantastic, don't get me wrong but It made me realize just how much we work off our partners! - Emily Wagner
