MAY 5TH
WEEKLY SCHEDULE
FOR
INTERMEDIATE ACTING



MONDAY, MAY 5TH:

The actors who performed on Friday will watch their taped performances and then write reflections on their work.

This is a heads-up: We are going to plow through the remaining scenes this week and get them up and running by Friday. This means that I will work with you this week and that you must have your scenes memorized. If your lines are not memorized then you will receive a D for rehearsal.

Today: Alberto, Maria and Andrew will rehearse.

If you have not performed your scene yet, then you will rehearse a minimum of five times with your scene partner each day I do not work with you. You should spend some time creating the environment; establishing the relationship with the other character in your scene, and reconnecting with your objectives. You should be moving around on your feet with props in your character’s world.

During this time, you should also be working on your lines.

At no time should you be “resting” on the planters, trotting off to the restroom, hanging out with your buddies, playing the guitar or frolicking by the picnic tables.

Everyone else who has performed her/his scene will begin working on creating a character based on the photos.

Today you will create a background story for your photo character: minimum of three pages. Must be detailed.


TUESDAY, MAY 6TH:

Today: Anais, Alicia and Tatevik, and Jazmin will rehearse.

Check Monday’s agenda. Ditto for Tuesday.



WEDNESDAY, MAY 7TH:

Today: Kathryn, Crystal Munoz, Junior will rehearse.

Check Tuesday’s agenda. Ditto for Wednesday. However, today, you will begin working on a “Day in the Life” biography for your character. This should be at least three pages and in detail.

THURSDAY, MAY 8TH:

Alberto, Maria and Andrew

These scenes will be taped and critiqued by the audience, and then the actors will watch their scenes and write reflections on their performances.


FRIDAY, MAY 9TH:
