Progress...

Progress... that's what's been happening latley, progress. I'm really happy things are starting to look up but I keep on thinking is it a little too much, a little too late? The Sunday practice after Trinity Sunday was very handy because we did get some important things done:

1. We finished the play! We have finally covered every scene down to a tee so that's that! The final scene looked AWESOME! I also FINALLY got to do my monoluge which I've been hanging out for weeks to do now! Feedback said I nailed it so kool!

2. We started to run through the play with no stops! This was important because I feel the random stopping in the rehersal process has slowed us down and even though it's important, it could be a factor to why we are stressing with one week to go and we haven't had a full run through!

Things To Do This Week (The Final Week): Costumed will need to be up and running, Front Of House (which has Jamie, Jenna, Leonie and I) will also need to happen but what we talked about will need to be brought down a notch because I thought we were thinking too big. Our lines/cues will have to be spot on which is hard if you haven't been doing the scenes over and over again like I did with every other play I've ever been in. If we can nail these things by this week we might be able to make this miracle work :)

Dad: My character has been developed ALOT since my last few blogs. I think doing my monoluge to an audience got me in the mood to really stretch his character even further to places I didn't think he would actually go. I also have a few other characters to work on also:

Volunteer: Hah, that should be a funny one! How I'm not going to laugh while belly dancing will be a miracle!

Boyfriend: The first time I did this was yesterday and even though this character is on stage for like 20 secs, it needs to look real so I will be looking into that one a little more this week...

Wolf, White Rabbit, etc.: The fairy tale characters are coming along nicely as well. Sure I haven't spent alot of time creating their characters like the Dad but I will make them look believable and not just silly.

Well that's about it for now. We've got a few more rehersals here and there until week 6 to make this thing happen so lets pull out all the stops and make it work :) Knowlesey.
