Anyone in the world

What's up y'all! Hope you all are doing well. Like you guys, we are feeling the stresses of the final performance and many of our other classes. It was hard for us to meet up this week more than one time, so we just met yesterday to go over lines and come up with/tone out our movements for the scene. Our scene is kind of long, so we are still trying to fully memorize the lines. I would say we are pretty much there, but we can definitely refresh a little more. Our goal is to have it fully memorized by the weekend so we can focus on the movements and actions mainly. Well, hope y'all are doing well with your rehearsals and we are excited to see them.

    Sana and I are in the exact same situation! We’ve been trying to learn the remaining lines and it’s been hard! I’m sure you guys will figure it out and perform great again! I’m excited to see how you guys decide to take on this scene!

    Definitely feeling the stress from other classes too! My schedule has been hectic lately and it's been tough for us to find times that work for both of us. Hmm, for lines maybe try saying them before bed? Or like in the car or something? That has helped me a bit, but not always haha. Pumped to see the second showing!

    You and Ziantae's first 2-minute performance of the scene was so great, I'm really looking forward to seeing the full thing! I've been using digital flashcards to help memorize my lines more fully.

    Your scene was absolutely phenomenal! Thank you for putting the end of year stress into words, I'm definitely feeling it too. A good trick for memorization is to run the scene with one person on book and then switch: you probably know more than you think smile
