We're done blocking!!!! Yay! Now, we're going through all the scenes and getting in the details: how we should react, how we should stand, speak, move, and look at different points in a scene. This is the part in the rehearsal process that requires a ton of focus-- but, that's kind of difficult.
I got there earlier than I needed to, but that's okay (it's always good to be early in case the director needs you for something, or just to get some extra time if you're caught in traffic.). I did some math homework while I was waiting for my scene. It was rather difficult, because the events taking place on stage was more than a little amusing. They were using fake bread rolls for wood, it was quite humorous. Next to me, Sam and Ben were talking monologues, and Sam was reading one of them out loud. I didn't know they were reading monologues because I was so ensconced in my math homework. Everything would have been fine...if Sam hadn't have started professing his love for Ben. It was from the monologue, I promise! But the way he was reading it made it seem...real (Props to you Sam, you wonderful actor, you.). As soon as I realized he was just reading, I was fine, but I was worried for a second. Haha!
Later, we were rehearsing my scene, but Madison, Moriah and I were technically on pause while our three little boy actors (appropriatley dubbed FOG [characters Feliciano, Orsino, and Gavino. Get it?]) worked through a rather difficult scene. Madison took to dancing with a stool, and, well, I don't remember what Moriah and I were talking about, but there was a lot of laughing.
This is indeed turning out to be quite an adventure. I don't have another rehearsal until October! Oh, no! But, I'm looking forward to seeing how it all turns out =D
Peace.
