Rehearsal for performance -10/01/22

 What we rehearsed? 

In this lesson we rehearsed the whole performance, we went from the beginning to the end of the performance taking it apart and working on what needed more work than other parts. We looked at our timing and our characterisation throughout. 

What needed work ?

I feel we needed to work on our timing in our rat duets. I think that they were being rushed through and not having 100% put into them. I feel that making them as rat like as possible will show a much bigger difference when we then go back to being human in the next section.


What I need to improve?

I personally feel I need to improve on my lines by taking my time to say them because at the moment I am rushing them and they are sounding messy and jumbled up. Therefore I need to slow down and process what I am saying.

What skill I used effectively?

I feel I used my facial expressions effectively throughout when portraying a character. I feel this was really noticeable during our rat duets and the section where we had to pretend to be children.

This made me think of different ways to show expression not just in my face, I feel I did this effectively by moving at different paces and different levels to show fear. This skill is taken from one of her dances 'café muller'. Another skill I explored was movement together. In this duo we put 4 counts of our phrases together to create our piece. We did this in unison. The little section before was us conveying emotion through our expressions I was showing care/love towards Honey and she was showing resentfulness towards me. We used another style of Pina where for example I was the object and Honey was moving my b...
