EVERYONE
|
Opening of play was slow
You are anticipating the freezes and especially
Tipperary
Everyone freeze in motion.
Freezes were sloppy at the end.
LISTEN TO EACH OTHER – IT’S BECOMING EVIDENT
Look around after first bomb scene – You have to
make it clear it is the first time this has happened.
KEEP watching the soldiers as they leave until
SHHH
GREAT COMMENT FROM MAKY – SAY EACH OTHERS’ NAMES –
THAT WILL MAKE THE LINES FRESH.
Rule Britannia was great today.
In the first freeze everyone was facing the same
way – ask Maky. I noticed Frank and
Judith
DICTION
DICTION DICTION
Everyone needs to be louder – the stage will be
bigger.

Judith
|
Tag on dress
Thanks for moving suitcase down. Do you want Alee and Kate to do it?
In Judith Joan scene – we believe – hit believe
You say front twice in the last monologue – hit both differently.
Lower pitch in doll scene.

Bela
|
Don’t anticipate Sheila singing.
|
|
Sound
|
Could not hear some of the gunfire at the beginning.
Louder on air raid sirens when no one is talking in the beginning.
Sound in dead person scene needs work – see Maky
|
|
War head and soldier puppet
|
Don’t move them too late. They
are the entrances to the scene. Head
listed to the left at the beginning.

Viv and Soldier 1
|
Viv, let us see the expression on your face as Sheila does the desert
fox line then shimmy – seems too
orchestrated. Aussie – have a funny face – oh gosh- react more.
Also, Aussie, a beat longer before you follow Viv. They laughed last night but would laugh
more if you milked it.
|
|
Soldier 2
|
Start and finish in accent
|
|
Judith and Frank
|
Freeze in motion
Frank, your diction is good, but Judith’s is REALLY good. Match hers.
Last shirt line was weird – no vocals. It just stopped.

|
Frank

Look out – don’t turn upstage to Judith. – I don’t know what
|

Military men

Work on win the war

Joan

What’s our wages? Slower diction
Amazing – don’t tell me to say good bye. I agree with Maky. You improve with each performance.
Good job raising flask – that’s right love

Aussie 1
Brian
|
Down under – hit the n’s and d.
Let your voice crack as Aussie 1
More Aussie than English
More heartbroken, not mad when speaking to your mom.
|
|
Sheila
|
Monologue more heartfelt. Think
about the words
Change the way you say – we haven’t killed anyone – many of your
lines are starting to sound the same.Maybe laugh – like she is ridiculous –
you haven’t made any bombs.
|
|
Aussie 2 & Angie
|
Watch your scene being too memorized.
|
|
Joan
|
Hope you remember how you did little woman. It was magnificent.
You changed the way you said many of your lines – wonderfully fresh.

Frakker

Cost us the war – hit t
DICTION make each word different.

Briggs family

Good on getting up quickly after the bomb.
Speak to Mrs. Kuehler about her view on the scenes.
|
|
Alister
|
COMMIT to UGGGH
LOUDER, but you were better with everything else.
|

Mrs. Gently -

Say Mrs. Gently in your lines about Alister when the men have gone.
Good noise falling
Don’t anticipate drum

Louder
Fall when the bomb hits.
