First week in Willoughby

First week in Willoughby 

We got cast and I play the role of a character called James he is a servant of the Willoughby family but is also a good friend to Bonnie. James looks after Bonnie and Sylvia when Miss Slighcarp and Mr Grimshaw take over the house hold and treat Bonnie and Sylvia horribly. I really like the character James because I see a little bit of myself in him because he's a really nice and caring guy who helps people and he knows right from wrong and if he doesn't like something he'll do something about it. I'm definitely going to enjoy playing James. The the first day of rehearsing we went over a few scenes in what's known as 'blocking' them, this is where you just roughly go over scenes to get a basic idea of what you want from that scene; we would decide roughly where people would enter and exit the stage and what the stage would actually look like during that scene and what everyone else would be doing.

  1. Good. This is better than your last journal already. Make sure you keep notes on each session like this. In order to push the grade up, though, you need to try to include a little more depth or evaluation in your posts. For instance - do you think we got enough blocking done in that first session? What style of production is emerging?
