April 16th, Masters!

Hello!
For those of you who we missed at Shakespeare, a quick summary of what is going on is below:
We're going to attempt to record the play online through zoom! You won't be walking around, but there will be different panels where we speak. Our hope is to have it formatted similar to the video below. This isn't a replacement for performing our play on stage, but rather a backup just in case we're unable to:) If we are able to perform on stage then we will just have two different types of performances!

With this is mind, we're going to be very limited to act and communicate our lines through body language, which means we're all going to need to be very expressive through our face and our voice! 

You have three assignments for this week. Please do not put it off to the last minute. We're counting on your hard work to be able to put this together. :) 

Assignments: 

1. You must have all of your lines completely and confidently memorized by next week. We're going to run through the play without using our scripts. Please practice everyday! 
2. You must come prepared with around 1 minute of your lines practiced with a lot of facial expression and voice inflection. Preferably one of your longer lines. You are also able to do a bunch of small ones that are close together, but in that case make sure you practice how you react to the other person speaking. Some of you have lines that only take a few seconds to say. In that case make it the most dramatic seconds of your life! ;) Also make sure to practice adding a lot of expression to the lines you won't be including in that one minute. Expression is everything!
3. Come wearing your costume! We'll only be seeing your torso and up, so you're free to wear pajama bottoms if you would like. But make sure the top half looks amazing! Hair and makeup that would be fitting for your character would also be great. 

Summary!: 

1. Memorize your lines completely and confidently. 

2. Come with practiced line that is filled with a lot of expression.

3. Wear your costume (and make it during the week if necessary.) 

For those of you who need fairy wings here is a tutorial for how to make some that are simple but also look great! 

If you have any questions or concerns PLEASE ask us! We're here to help you!
We hope you have a wonderful week:)

Sincerely, those who've lost all their pigment...
