We had continued to rehearse the dance and also create our own versions. We needed to make them look more like a wolf pack and more fierce. At points it was too soft and gentle, meaning we had to adjust things so that they could be sharp and almost angry. Although it took a while we had begun to make things look better and make it more like wolves so that they would be presented in the play and the audience would know that they were still there.
We blocked the skating scene. We had started to sort out how Sylvia and Bonnie would be on stage and look like they were skating on the river. We also blocked how the wolves would move and seem like they were lurking in the trees that lined the river. This was kept in thoughout the whole process of the play and i think it worked very well and looked appealing to the audience but also gave the audience the effect of the wolves being present again.
You are really skirting over the process, here. You need to include a lot more detail about the rehearsals themselves. You identify a couple of key elements of this week's rehearsals, but you do not unpack those elements enough to say what the movement was like, or the atmosphere. You do, however, give a sense of the ever-present wolves.
