I can't believe the semester is nearly over, it went by so quickly! During our last two rehearsals, Isabel and I have been focusing on applying the feedback we've received from our fellow classmates (ya'll) and Rebecca. One of the biggest takeaways from this last Monday's showing of the full scene was to put additional emphasis on the love between Callie and Sara, even as they're just about to have a big, messy fight. We made small adjustments to our physical actions within the scene that allowed us to be closer to one another- sitting side by side on the sofa instead of standing further apart, having Sara hand off her jacket as she comes through the door into the apartment, etc. We're hoping to work in the Black Box at least once before the final performance so we can get a better sense of the space and improve upon our blocking, since we just made some changes to it today. All that being said, I think it's going really well, and I'm excited for Isabel and I to share it with everyone on Wednesday. Good luck with your finals, folks!
