Last week in Drama, we were put into small groups to practice our scenes. This was super helpful because I was able to work with people, who I do a scene with, and really experiment with it and perfect it. Also, it allows me to help the other person with their lines if they would like to change it around. In our lessons next week, it will be very good for me to work with Zaynah as she is playing Juliet and I would really like to focus on those scenes and have them perfect.

This week I have learned nearly all my lines, just a big paragraph to go and it should be completed! (including extra lines). I still have a problem with backing the audience mistake, so I was wandering if anyone has any ideas of how I can be aware of the audience, please suggest some. The play is also piecing together since were in our group scenes so we have time to perfect our lines and our characters expression and tone.

I think today was a good lesson because more people are performing without their scripts so we are not just reading the lines off the page but bringing the lines to life. Also i loved how we are going in separate groups and rehearsing the scenes because this way we can all put our ideas together in our group to make the scene better. I am also reading the real script so I can get a better understanding of my character.

this week i'm working on my characters voice as it is a man. Also on his moves and his gestures as he is angry or calm. the part i'm concentrating on right now is the one with Paris when he asks my doughtier Juliet hand

I feel very happy and confident with how i am portraying my character and just need to finish learning all my lines. We have did a few runs of the blocked play and i contributed a few ideas on how to improve the play.

This lesson i got given a new section to say as lord Montague. I am not sure how i should say the ending as he just finds out his sons died but he just saw his enemy so would i say it sad or angrily?

For Romeo and Juliet we have been focussing on learning all out lines and blocking out all the scenes one of the ideas that I have

This week in drama we began blocking the play to help us see where we have to be on stage.we also used blocking the play to help us see where we can add things in at and improve it. During other days we played with our lines to see different ways we can perform it so it can help us decide which ton tone right

I enjoyed this lesson because I read most of my lines and we started blocking.

This week I took on a directorial role as I helped construct the set for scene three. This has helped me develop my understanding of space and staging which will help me a lot more whilst on and off stage. I need some direction on how to say my lines though- could anyone maybe suggest a way I can improve?

Rehearsals so far are going reall good. Within a few weeks we have managed to pull it off. Now it's to perfectly polish this play! I'm very excited to be part of this production with lots of great, talented actors! Being one of the main charactes, is quite hard because it's all about remembering

I think in my drama class we all learned our lines and we practice on our performances and we had to repeat some of the performances on time also we make sure that we didn't backstage during our role performances.And maybe add more physical theatre

Yesterdays rehearsal was going in good shape! Just more blocking and learning even more lines and hopefully we should be ready to just polish it. Since I am a quiet person; I thought I might step up my game a little by picking some songs out for the play and a dancer who can teach us some Indian dance moves. I also like how i'm starting to ask things I don't understand and give some ideas to the class, I really feel that I am becoming confident and more interactive with my classmates and teacher! EBI: need to be aware of the audience and not turn my back towards them and careful around staging.

You are definitely growing in confidence and I am very impressed with your commitment! well done, and thank you for your help with the music and dance. Miss Jim

A good rehearsal today it is starting to come together. The cast do need to think a bit more about their characters and how to behave when they are ensemble and in the background.
I am very impressed that some of the students are now really giving some good ideas about the direction and staging- Zaynah directed a section using other cast emembers to create a wall in order to use a split stage for more dramatice effect..

Good rehearsal started to talk about the importance of lighting.
