reflection for performance
After changing our scrips several times, we finally performed our scene on Friday. The accident happens in my monologue influences us a little bit, but our performance is better than the first draft in general.
For me, I have more movements and lines this time especially the monologue part, which could show Laura's characteristic and her crazy in glass managerial. Also, It seems like that I get more into the scene than before instead of staying out of from Amanda and Tom's fight. I have more movement details to show my nervous and uncomfortable when they are arguing each other. For example, I rowan my dress and kinds of play with my fingers by myself. Since I have been told to have more movement from the classmates' review. I kinds of tried to walk back when they are fighting to show my afraid. Moreover, at the second part of our scene, I don't have lots of lines, which needs me to have more movements to attract the audience. It's the time that I could show Laura's depression about the families' situation. She is kinds of in the middle of them and feels so sad when they are arguing since she wants to have a warm and cozy family. So I tried to touch them in order to stop the fight. But I failed because of their loud voice and I feel afraid. So I walk and sit down and start crying through shaking my shoulders and cover my face to show my depress. However, I think this is the most important part to show her hesitate that she wants to stop the fight but her personality makes her afraid. Actually, I can walk to the chairs and look back and stop, try to go there again but give up finally. Also, I could have more movements when I was sitting there such as standing up a little bit and sit down again. Hugging myself and make some crying sounds. I still think I could have more actions in the stage to attract the audience. Also, in my monologue which could show she is in her world, I could slow down my monologue and dance on the stage to show my happiness when Laura talks her glass. I could turn around to show my naive. My emotion should be more enjoyable and happy instead of speaking a monologue. So, I think I still have a lot to work on.
Our team has an accident in Laura's monologue. Our plan is that Tom and Amanda frozen and I start my monologue, but they continue talking which I could not interrupt them. It may lead the audience feel confused because of that. The main reason is that we change our scrips so many times. It's hard to change the habit when we already memorize all the things. So I think we could talk about the scrips completely first and then start practicing. However, we also have some advantages such as our voice. We slow down a lot to explain our emotion well and make the audience listen to us clearly. The background music that we chose helps us explain the emotion a lot, especially for Tom's monologue at the beginning of the scene. Also, I think Amanda and Tom's fight could be more aggressive which gives a strong feeling to the audience to show their relationship. They could have more movements on the stage. For example, Tom could walk around the stages and feels annoyed by Amanda. Amanda follows him and keeps nagging at him. It means that we should have more connections with our partners instead of performance by ourselves through saying the lines. We should work on how to take advantages of stages. However, I like our group members' way to express their character. Each of us has an apparent personality. Amanda is annoyed by nagging a lot at her kids. Tom is keeping arguing with Amanda. Laura as the one who in the middle of the kinds of being quiet. The audience could easily distinguish our character. Otherwise, at the same time, we could add more elements to show their character such as drinking alcohol for Tom. We still need to work on some details such as to explain our character better.
