Everyone
|
At the beginning, everyone was moving at the same
tempo and everyone was one level – straight.
Don’t laugh when you are frozen – brooke and Sydney
WE HAVE TO HAVE WIND ON narrow steep way.
Someone pick up the camellia
DICTION
At the end, Everyone looks at Quixote – Shhh then
look out at exit sign and freeze.
Wind whispers die out.
Villagers moving into Kilroy’s entrance are in a
straight line and there are no levels.
Must have hard freezes then move out naturally – do not
move eyes.
Ladder needs to be at an angle EACH time.
During Kilroy’s chase scene at the beginning, try to
grab him and miss. Kilroy, try to dodge some people. This one scene looks too
staged.
Really a great job – better than district. Keep making
the lines fresh. When you meet new
people, treat them differently. Don’t
treat everyone the same.
5 min – Cognac
10 min – I gotta find something to cash
in on
15 min – Where’s the grey hound depot
20 min – Anxious old hawk
25 min –Violets in the mountains can’t
break these rocks.
30 min – Maky – the street cleaners are
waiting for you
35 min – Block 14
|
Kilroy
|
Where was the wallet and the picture?
When you first come in be a slow record…. Excited,
then slower, then look then line.
React to the streetcleaners.
Be more vocal when you fall during end of play and
with Esmeralda
Fight after Guard takes you off the Fugitivo
Lean in for a kiss after I am sincere
Move head naturally when speaking to villagers and
Casanova… talk as you are moving your head.
Change your personality with each new person/group
of people you meet. Do not stay the same – Shanghaied is an example of how
you change. This is what one of the judges said – need to see your heart.
Sleep under the stars – first time excited
Sleep under the stars – second time resigned to
fate.
What happened to one true woman’s pic.
Rose between teeth.
This PLACE is confusing sounds like this play is
confusing.
|
Gypsy
|
Keep coughing and stay in character until you are
two feet out of curtain line.
|
Quixote
|
More energy – I know you are getting frustrated, but
you are doing a sing song. A little faster on some of lines. Show blue ribbon
prominently at the beginning and end.
Choose one among shadows – look at these people –
squint your eyes
Seemed too memorized and slow.
|
Survivor
|
Come in desperate for water, see fountain,and try to
rush to it. More disappointed when there is no water.
Be more dead, head lolled to one side – legs and
arms at unnatural poses.
|
Gutman
|
Did you say I sorry buddy?!?!?!!?
Wear helmet as the airplane.
|
Carly lights
|
We need to see Gutman when he moves the ladder and
touches his hips.
Gutman, during one of the scenes, roll your chair
around and with back to audienc, move your head and say block….
|
Prudence
|
Fight for
your suitcase
|
Prudence and Olympe
|
Exchange coats and hats
|
Stage lights
|
Light on Gutman block 12
Light on Madrecita during her curses
Light on Kilroy’s entrance.
|
Streetcleaners
|
HISS and move bodies weirdly – only Payton and Evan
are weird. Move hands crazily. Crouch.
|
Gypsy and Gutman
|
Exchange cigs as we talked about during class
Don’t move during caged bird lines.
|
Olympe
|
As Prudence, age must match voice – see Ms. Keeler
|
Guard Riley
|
After you say Hey – scratch or something
After chasing Kilroy off – escort him with a gun.
After Fugitivo, take extra suitcases off USL, not
across CS.
|
Casanova
|
Kuehler likes foot on back?
Louder at times we could not hear or understand you –
especially at Morris code. See him
blink then rush to him.
Say honor like you say Jacque Casanova
Say I am Jacque Casanova with a flourish of your
cape. Pose beat lines
The knees in each scene seemed staged. Do something
different.
|
Marguerite
|
Legs are a problem, make a choice to hold them apart
WIDE and pull your skirt up a little.
Purse is gone – do not look up – look down and
around. Faster on discovery.
Don’t anticipate Casanova on knees.
When you can’t find a wrap after the cabana boy
tears your dress. Look around and make the decision to stuff the dress in
your bra so you don’t have to hold it.
|
Casanova and Gutman
|
You are not believable when you see the people. Actually see and react to these poor souls.
|
Elijah
|
Cut the storm noise until we can figure out when to
use it. People need to whisper
instead.
|
Soldiers
|
React to the scene – Evan look around – having Riley’s
back. Riley move among people and
scare them. Hold a gun up to someone’s head, then click and laugh exiting.
|
Esmerlada
|
We need to see the decision to let him lift the
veil.
