Please SPEAK UP!

 Hello!

Our play is coming together SO WELL!  

I'm getting picky now because you are doing such a good job, so now we fine tune.

THIS IS WHAT WE NEED NEXT:

We need to HEAR YOU!

For your homework:

PART ONE: 

I would like you watch this video and for the next week DON'T MISS THIS PART spend 10-15 minutes everyday using the principles taught in the video:

HOW TO SPEAK MORE LOUDLY

PART TWO:

Continue to review your lines, your cues and your blocking.

DO YOU KNOW YOUR CUES? 

Do you know WHEN and WHERE you move? 

PART THREE:

CREATE A FLOW CHART.  That means you make a list of what you do in the play and when.  Here is a sample from another show.. . . 

HINT: this will be a HUGE help in knowing your cues, blocking, etc.

SAMPLE FLOW CHARTS BELOW

What does your character need?

Reminder about memorizing lines: 1. When we meet this week your lines should be memorized.   2. Now that they’re memorized practice saying them so that they sound natural, not robotic and NOT like you’re from Scotland…OR Ireland.  PLEASE START WORKING ON THE FOLLOWING Think about what your character needs to be your character. This includes: 1. What clothes does your character need to wear to look like your character? What your character wears needs to reflect who they are. IE. What Alice wears will be very different from what Imogene wears.  Your assignment is to make a plan for what your character will be wearing, write it out on a piece of paper or sketch it out and show me on Thursday.  Start gathering items of clothing you have at home that you can use. If there’s something you need but don’t have check with other Vanguard students. 2. What props does your character need? If you’re one of the gossipy ladies you need access to an old cell phone.
