During this lesson we started with our normal warm up and
then went straight into rehearsing our scenes in the spaces we are going to
perform them on the day. We spent about half an hour rehearsing in our spaces
and this helped as we were able to clean up any small details that weren’t
moving swiftly in our scene such as entrances and exits. Even though we weren’t
able to properly rehearse it yet as some areas such as mine in reception the TV’s
weren’t yet available for the performance of multimedia, we were still able to
rehearse all the live action that will be performed on the day.
We then went back to rehearse the two choruses’s with our
whole class and this enabled us to strengthen any physical theatre that wasn’t
quite as yet as strong. This also gave us an opportunity to clarify that
everyone saying line on the chorus knew who and when they were saying them.
After rehearsing through our scenes and the chorus’s we had a
rough run through of the performance in which we would all move around the whole
school building (starting at reception) to where each scene was being
performed. At each scene one member of the group would roughly explaining to
the whole class what movement and dialogue would be occurring. This was extremely
useful as it meant that our whole class was able to really have a true
understanding of the movement of the play. Also it helped us understand what
places we need to be at before a scene to make sure the play moves swiftly.
