Everything has gone down hill…
Hmm…what to say…
 Things haven’t been at their greatest this week. We have not had one whole rehersal this week within our group because of illness of some of our members.
So it’s looking extremely unlikely that our group will be chosen for creative arts simply because we haven’t had the rehersal time (i.e our first practice of the week will be performing for Mr Cash). Very unfortunate because our group would have loved to have performed but we still get Bunjil!
Back to our ensemble. We have our 60’s scene…barely. But I cannot be a man! It is very odd…I cannot seem to get in character as a blokey bloke. And I think Jess is finding it hard with her character in the skit. Heather and I were thinking at lunch today that maybe we could swap Jess and Heather around. Jess has been in 5/5 scenes so far so if she is in 4 instead then she can be apart of the earlier scenes. Otherwise it would be very uneven.
One thing that I have been happy about the progress of this week is our 80’s scene! Leah and I have added extra dialogue and facial expressions and hopefully we can portray the contrasting types of music in the form of a boom box and an ipod.
For our 50’s scene we are going to be portraying television (Australian context). Heather and I were trying to come up with the perfect scene but it just wasn’t coming. I think Heather was feeling very sick…she looked very tired! After this I’m going to go google 50’s and see what I can come up with.
I’m stressing…we still have tightened change overs, made it slick, make sure timing is right and scenes don’t drag on. This week has been hell! We should have had an afternoon rehersal but Friday has come too fast…
