- "To do something, just be it"
- All have the ability to get distinction
- work as hard as we can
- our show, make it the best it can possibly be
Today in class, Mr Rennison and Mr Hughes spoke to us about how rehearsals have been going so far. As a group, we have not been working to the best of our ability by speaking unnecessarily, going off task and not putting in full focus and effort in rehearsals - regardless whether or not we are on stage at a given moment. Due to our lack of effort as a group, we have gone massively behind schedule in our rehearsal process. This is was originally our plan for rehearsals that we made on Monday 16th February 2015:

Evaluation
This week, we are in week 3. Within this week, we were supposed to run through the whole of play. Unfortunately, we have not started to even configurate act 2 which pulls us back massively in trying to construct the play as a whole.
From observing and being in the class during the rehearsals, I have seen that as a group we have not been focusing and excelling to our full potential. We haven't been taking time outside of lessons to improve our work and rehearsal techniques which was evident in today's rehearsal.Nonetheless, we can still improve this as we do not have our performance yet. To improve this, we must make sure when we rehearse as a class, it is as proactive as possible. We must put in and use our full amount of energy to have successful rehearsals. To make this performance successful, we have to work productively as an ensemble. If we all aim to remember this throughout the rehearsal process and on the night of the performance, we should all excel in our performance and hopefully achieve the highest grade possible!
