4. Look at Act III, Scene I blocking
5. React to the bugle in Act I and Act III when you drop the wine.

1. Don't be angry at the potroast:)
2. Be careful not to turn your back to the audience.
3. Speak clearly. There were a few times today that I had a hard time understanding you.
4. Make sure that your struggle with Elaine looks like a struggle.
5. Keep it moving. Don't be afraid to jump on the end of other's lines. Don't leave any space between their lines and yours.
6. Make sure you actually are surching for Spenalzo.

1. Make sure you check the blocking notes.
2. Pay attention to which way you're facing. Don't turn your back on the audience.
3. When you're unconcious, stay still:) It was funny, but there are other things going on at the time that the audience needs to be paying attention to.

1. You did very well today. I am impressed with the character work you did. Not many high school students, let alone freshmen, would be able to go so far away from the "norm" and make a character so completely and delightfully his own.
2. Watch standing with your back to the audience. That was probably the biggest thing i noticed today. Just pay attention to where you are. Keep your face at least partially turned to the audience every time you are speaking. Also, don't stand in front of anyone, and don't let anyone stand in front of you.
3. Make sure you keep the energy up at all times. It was rare that I saw it drop today, but there were a couple of times. Keep working. You are doing great!
