We didn't have a chance to do this blog entry earlier since the first week of rehearsals was pretty hectic for both of us, so I am writing it now! The first week was an interesting and difficult time. I was pretty sick, so it was hard to find the energy to really look over my lines, and Elizabeth and I couldn't meet up at first. When we did, our rehearsal went really well even though I felt a bit anxious about the large task ahead of us. The main part of the first week was learning about our given circumstances and trying to understand the emotional states of our characters. I feel like actors have to constantly work on understanding the given circumstances because they are so integral to becoming grounded in the scene, so we are definitely still working on this. I am excited to see everyone else's scenes on Tuesday because I find that they're really helpful to see and everyone has been doing so well!
