Our aim throughout our peice is co coordination and have a wide trance of synchronisation.

Timings are key in our peice, what were going to solve this is write timestamps on our note book.

OUR plan for today:

10am-5-10 min warm up

stretching and cardio warm up

10.20- 10.45am go over what we have done so far

10.45-11 mini warm up and continue going through peice.

11-11.30 Smooth crisp movements and learn how to controlled some movements

11.30-11.45 film peice and note down improvements to be made, self criticism and peer feedback

11.45-12.15 add extra pieces of choreo yet to be made and film end of peice and upload to padlet 😁

# data[].attributes.body
In your groups, answer the following questions/complete the following tasks.

Create a new post for your group and add below.

What aim(s) do you want to complete in relation to your piece by the end of today's lesson.

Divide the remaining session time up into appropriate working chunks.

Detail what you are going to do in each of these timed chunks.

how are you going to complete these tasks?

Is it a collaboration or is someone taking a directorial lead today (this can change each week)

How do you plan on documenting the process you have made today? E.g. film progress?

Task:

You have been tasked with staging a short excerpt of the play 'Doorsteps'.

SYNOPSIS – DOORSTEPS Inspired by the large possibilities of small space, Doorsteps features a cast of 6 playing over 40 roles across 13 unconnected scenes, all taking place on the American doorstep.

CHARACTERS (6O) Many roles are considered open with regard to gender, race and ethnicity. It is hoped that over the course of a production run that such roles are performed by varying actors, allowing certain scenes to flourish and grow in unique ways.

TIME Now.

PLACE The American doorstep.

THE STAGE A single doorstep leads to the door of a Midwest American home. Steps may lead up from the stage level to an elevated porch to the doorstep before the doorway.

________________________________________________________________

In groups of your choice you must stage;

An adaption of the opening 'monologue' that begins the doorstop. The American doorstop'

and then at least 2 more scenes of your choice.

General Notes:

CUT YOUR LINES!!!!! It's not fair on those that have cut their scripts

You won't be able to learn your lines effectively until you have edited your script

Remember you are being marked on collaboration and ensuring your script matches everyone else's is part of this collaboration

A lot of the pauses are people being lost in their script. These pauses will be eliminated the sooner you are all off script.

Know what scene you are on after (maybe create yourself a plan)

Keep the energy going in your scenes; this might be the 498697592407th time you've performed this script, but it will be the first time the audience see it

Work on the '/' indicators within the lines

Elise / Tech Notes:

Add school bell to school noise for prologue

Between scenes 6 & 7 - another SX; need to set the museum (opening the lockers); projection change

Add a rolling SX into scene 7??

Add Fire alarm and weird sound SX into You Don't Own Me SX.

Between scene 12 and 13 - shut museum, change projection.

Add in school cross and sound SX to reestablish school location

Add beach/wave/cave SX for Coda and projection change

Create set/ props list

Company bow

Scene 1

Lauren and Grace: more conversational e.g. face each other a little more

Jason, well done for having your script down

Jason come downstage a little more, almost mirroring Grace

Scene 2

Sienna / Grace - MORE Intense, e.g. the quiet nature of the scene has to feel like a choice rather than just you can't project

Scene 3

Kacy / Robin - remember this will be on central rostra blocks so you won't need to worry about moving the chairs,

Scene 4

Sam/ Lauren

Quicker into this scene - the chairs will still be there

Sam think about Auden posture

Projection and slow down!

Might play with Lauren moving more in this scene, e.g. around Sam - more intimidating

Scene 5

Keeley - play with entrance of this scene, e.g. wait for Lauren / Sam to leave and look to 'see if the coast is clear' before sitting down.

Kacy, quicker entrance on 'I saw you at the dig'

Jason, Sienna, Lauren, Liam, earlier entrance before 'did you tell them you were here.

This group look at staging - you are all blocking each other

Liam - come forward and across to the side of the table during your longer section

Scene 6

Keeley, remember to use pronoun 'she/her' when talking about the thing in the dream as it is supposed to be a mirror image of you.

Have a go at getting through this 'story' without the script.

Make sure 'I had a dream' is really clear, so the audience know you are talking about a dream, not a real like scenario

Keeley - let Grace come to you to look at your sleeve don't approach her.

Scene 7

Faye / Sophie - Louder as you are far away from the audience

Scene 8

Kacy - make sure the word REPLICA is really clear here.

The crossing and moving in this scene is really effective, keep up your own individual character movements in the background - think about what your character might be doing

Liam / Sophie - we'll look at this scene where Liam you're not looking at Sophie to add a little more communication between you two.

Chauvet - Shor-vey

Lascaux - Las - co

Jason - don't add in extra swearing

Everyone - don't be afraid to add in some sound ad lib (not swearing) as this scene ends

Scene 9

Grace / Lauren - again make this a more natural posture, e.g. facing each other a little more when possible.

Scene 10

Scene 11

Play this more like you are all staring at something at the museum - we'll pick a spot to choose for you all to focus at

Scene 12

Fire Alarm SX & weird sounds to play - add in general chaos from everyone before song starts with Kacy in the middle just laughing???

Grace - well done for learning ! think about your character and how they are feeling during this song

Scene 13

Scene 14

Scene 15

Scene 16

Scene 17

Scene 18

More reaction from everyone in the background - what is your character thinking/ doing / reacting / feeling / who are they speaking too

e.g. more reaction to 'so he's human' otherwise Jason's bin kick seems completely OTT when actually it's right

Louder Sam (Auden) when stopping the Bin chant
