23rd october

I am really happy about what happened today, Miss Cordell told me that when the cast is dancing I get to stand on a higher platform and direct the dance, Miss wrote down all the things I will have to say and I will try to learn it by friday. Miss Cordell said that she would like me to play guitar whilst on the platform, I think I would like to base my character on Johnny Casino from grease, and I would like to wear a cowboy hat and a waistcoat, I will discuss my characters costume with miss closer to the performance day.

11th october

Today i felt went really well, we manage to do most of the first scene. I feel like my character of weinfield is coming on really well i feel like i am really connecting with the character. I need to do more research on my other character the purpiotor as i am not confident playing him yet i plan on reading his scene ans memorizing his lines by next lesson so that i can really grt to grips with the character and how he acts. Miss said that he is the owner of the camp so he is going to be very confident and be very strong towards other characters.

10th october doubles lesson

today we got a lot of work done, we started off by writing down a structure for our performance so that we knew what we had done and what other scenes we will have to do, after we got the structure of out performance we started off by going through all of the scenes that we had already made so that we knew where we had to go and what we had to do. I did not feel that this lesson went as well as it could have and i have a feelinh that our doubles performance with miss will not be ready in time unless we start to work together more and reallu get working hard.

tuesday 1st october

Todays lesson went really well, in miss Cordells lesson we got our parts for the play 'grapes of wrath' i have four parts in total, the 2 roles in the first act the only character i acted today is winfield who is a 12 year old boy, because he is the youngest character in the play he has the least power because of this, all the characters push him around, when we were acting out the dinner scene i was kicked out of my chair by danny's character, i feel like im going to play this character as a quite boy who keeps to himself, so far he has had one line, this shows that he is shy even around his family. In Mr Nobiles lesson we were set the task of making a 15 minute performance based on the title 'morning routine' and we have to base it on a certain performance group, my group consisted of Me Rosie Liam and Zach, we decided to use DV8, i had my guitar today so my group asked if i would play it in the performance, for the music i decided to use 'give me love' by ed sheeren as i felt this fitted in with the movement the rest of the group was doing, after lesson sir asked me if i could play guitar and talk at the same time, i can so he asked if i could write a monologue for the start of the play about a morning routine, i tried to at home but i havent been able to write one as of yet, i plan to have it written by monday.
