things that happened in the 1700s

Women were allowed to act in a theatre since 1660 and not before that. Before 1660 young boys used to play the role of a women because they still had a high voice and their muscles hadn't grown properly yet .

the way of the world

about my scene charater 
qShe is marred to Mr fainall.
qAnd Mr fainall is having an affair with Mrs marwood which is my friend.
qShe is really nice as she try's to help foible by telling her that Mrs marwood saw her in the park with someone she should be with.

this here is my charater and her husband >>>>>

done monologue

i did my monolouge yesturday and i think it went really well exsept from me being nearly sick at thw end but apart from that yer i think it was ok. i spoke loud enough for people to hear me and i did it pretty slow .

also i added more blocking in it so i sat at the chair doing my makeup and then i get this photo out of my pocket and then start going offit and throw the photo on the floor. but because i love it so much i run over and pick it up to go and sit back on my chair. i remembered most of my lines and i added my facial exspressations in it so u could tell when i was upset and when i had an idea.

the way of the world

right i haven't written about My scene :( oops so here's alittle bit
my scene is from the way of the world made by willaim convgreve

right well we have had lots of ideas for our scenee first we were going to wear and do everything the same are the time the piece was made in but then because of costumes and props were found it hard so we just changed what we wear and what we do to in the time but with obviously the same Shakespeare language.

changed my monologue

right we have been off for a week

 i have figured out what i am going to do and change for my monologue. i have leaned my lines and added pauses in to it so this time i will slow it down instead of rushing it .also because Sonya told me that my character is sooo obsessed with this boy i have to show that i am. for example keep a picture in my bra or have photo at the side of the table and stroke it so it looks like I'm abit weird but also to show i am totally in love with him.

so when i do my monologue I'm going to to just get this photo and i think i will talk in to my mirror for a awhile then when i get angry about love i will rip up the photo or put it in the bin and then get it back out and sit on the floor looking at it so really i look a little bit crazy :P

presentation!

yesterday was when we did our presentation to Sonya and some others students. i really liked mine i enjoyed doing it. but i think i may have read it out really fast and i was finished in the matter of 5 ish minutes ... i think because i had a little bit of butterfly's i just tryed to get it done but that's not really what i should do . i should take my time and explain more but i just talk abit to fast , when we do it again next time I'm going to talk more slowly and explain more. also i don't think i read off the board because i know your suppose to understand whats going on and you have got to know what u are talking about and i did i tryed to explain as much as i could remember but i think i need to do more research.

aslo i need to add things about ym script work in to it and talk about that.

dammm!


today we acted our monologues in front of Sonya and Amy. and to be honest i don't think i think i tried my hardest. i rushed it and forgot to stay in character and move around.these pass few week i have been so obsessed with remembering my lines i forgot to learn who and what my character is and what movement i was going to do. so if i could change it i would not be so obsessed with remembering my line but also concentrate on who and what my character would do and how she would react in my monologue. also i would put the pauses in it i think because i bugged it up the first time, i just wanted to get it over and done with because i couldn't remember my lines i forgot to be the character i was and forgot to use the movement.

all i no is that in the future i will remember when i get something to learn i will have to remember the learn who and what my character is but still learn my lines.

stupid royals!



the globe - on stage


i remeber when we got the tour around the man said "that is where the royal people would sit so eg queen elizabeth". he also asked why do you think they would want to sit up there because if there behind the stage and behind the actors they wouldnt see much so why would they want to sit up there and the anwser was so they could be seen :I ...............STUPID ROYALS!

about the the globe


helloo! right this is a pictureof the shakespeare globe, and i had taken when i went to london with the college :)

i just done some reseach because im cool :)
so here is some facts about the globe:
  • Elizabethan theatres attracted huge crowds - up to 3000 people
  •  Shakespeare and his company built TWO Globe Theatres!
  • The Globe theatre started building in 1597 and it was finished in 1598
  • There was no heating in the Globe theatre. Plays were performed in the summer months and transferred to the indoor playhouses during the winter
  • to show what plays were on the flags were erected on the day of the performance which sometimes displayed a picture advertising the next play to be performed.
  • Colour coding was used to advertise the type of play to be performed - a black flag meant a tragedy , white a comedy and red a history.

hello! - 1st Feb Wednesday 2012
today we had independent study, scenes work and rehearsing monologue's :)

1st script work (the way of the world)
i did this task in my group and today we went threw the script first so we all knew when we came in and then we go on our feet and started to block it. we did have a few good ideas but we have decided to put only the ones we could actually do in our scenes for example (when we hind Mrs mar wood we were going to put her in a box but i thought that it would look stupid and not really what people would do in them days so we are just hindering her behind curtains now ). then we had to talk about what costumes and props we would need and use . i decide instead of basing the clothes around 1600th we are going to do it more up to date so i have chosen to wear a black skirt with a white shirt and blazer because my character is very upper class and posh so i am going to wear like a suit kinder style.

2nd independent study ( monologues)
on the afternoon i went threw my monologue i sat down for most of the time because i really just wanted to get it in to my head so i wouldn't forget it, so i sat on my own and leaned it. how i leaned it was by writing down a word or two words next to each sentence so i didn't have to keep reading it threw i just remember these little sections of what the next line is and now i feel i easy to remember what is next. i now know my monologue : )

yeyey! : D

first day on here!

right this is my fisrt day on here ! soo anyway all i have done today is learn my monalogue and my script! and im very pround because i know it all! :D ,, i still sometime get two lines mixed up but i will be ok by next week . hopfully :L
