DONE!!!!
Drama drama drama. That is what this week is all about!
So far:
Year 11 Showcase (Ensemble and solo) on Monday DONE
SAC on Analysis of Solo and Ensemble on Tuesday DONE
Drama Exam on Thursday SOON
Our showcase was a fantastic night except for the stress and the nerves before our solos. I was so nervous but as soon as I got up and onto that stage I was absolutely fine. I thought the worst part would be waiting for Cashy’s little spiel before our solo but I was pumped and ready to go! Solo went okay I guess, except I wrecked my second line and that nearly screwed up my focus but I just took a breath and kept going.
Ensemble I wasn’t nervous about at all. Odd considering this was the task that we would be marked on, on that night. I think it went well and we only had a few minor glitches (Jess saying tattoo, me nearly forgetting to move the boom box out of the way) but no major stuff ups. My voice was screwed at the end of the night because even before solos it had been playing up but I managed to push through.
It was really good that we had our SAC today, straight after completing our ensembles and solos. The showcase refreshed our memories (in the case of our solos) and was perfect timing for our ensembles. Not sure how I went, my hand was dead afterwards.
Drama Unit 2. I cannot wait!!!! Unit 1 was great and I was definetly pushed outside my comfort zone as the unit focused on comic acting but it was definetly necessary as now I know exactly what my strengths and weaknesses are for Year 12. Hopefully there will be a dramatic solo as an option for next semester Unit 2?
