One scene in particular was the school scene. It needed to be more sharp and the children needed to be more fearful of Brisket. As well as the cheese alphabet being sharp and making sure Brisket would give sneaky hits when the Inspector wasnt looking.
After we had spoke about this scene and going over it in different ways, we had finally got it done in a way that not only felt like it was good but also looked like it Brisket had all the control and the children feared her.
I think the last few weeks had really helped us develop scenes further, especially the chorus and made it more interesting when we had movement or were scattered.
When it came to the final performance i think that the time we spent going over things and repeating them to make them better had paid off. It looked very appealing and had given a great effect on the audience.
I believe that all the work we did towards to the play had benefited us, as we were able to give the full effect of the characterisation and themes that were explored within the play.
One key element of a journal like this is the exploration and evaluation of rehearsals. It is very difficult at the end of a process like this to write about the rehearsal process, much easier to keep up with it as you go along.
