October 28 Critiques

October 28, 2012

Everyone	Read back over the script and hit all consonants. What happened to the wood. We must SEE the journey. Everyone adds to it and everyone is changed by it. Mud and trees –enter quietly Gates – enter quietly During the times when Bastian speaks to the characters, YOU HAVE TO LISTEN. People noises with Gmork Do not speak upstage React to the weather. Get locker tags from Payton Gates 3 walk out together Go see the nothing – face to the audience. Work harder.  Have purpose.  THINK on stage. Hit consonants Tuesday – 5:00-8:00
Dad & Bastian	Unfreeze at the same time.
Bastian	Mental health People noises  when bullies are bullying you. Books about heroes It is raining – must rain on you as well.
Bookseller	Hat off in store Slower. Think about what you are saying
Lights	Bump lights during storm Lights are only on the focus of the scenes. Red wash must be faster – anticipate Late on Yuyulala Bump lights during Y’s scene.
Artax & Atreyu	React to Gmork. Watch Last of the Mohicans or any movie that shows hunting.  Be stealthy.  Look around. You must be on guard during the entire show. High pasture – see it. Leave the pylon off at the beginning. Put it up when you are hiding – don’t wait for lines. Gmork has been following us – scared Swamp – you must make us feel. Stand on different strands He has been following us all day – faster and be frightened.
Elder, Cairon	Step on lines.  Think about what you are saying. This must sound realistic and not presentational. Wisdom in your choice
Atreyu	Awed by the auryn.  Change from the beginning of the play – exaggerate being weak and fearful.  Learn to be confident and strong. Don’t backup Come death - cocky
Elder, Cairon, Artax, Atreyu	People noises when Gmork howls and growls.
Colorful pedestrians	People noises during this transition Cut troll lines.  Atreyu just says stories are getting mixed up.
Morlas	Step on lines.  BE CHARACTERS! Move into the light at the end.
Falkor	Dragon Those are sharp – people noises Laugh before your dance
Urgl and Engywook	Watch backs. Speak and LOOK at each other. DICTION Life and death – say differently
Music	During dragon dancing, be louder Watch being loud when people are talking. Light off dad at the end until he is the focus.
Urgl and Engywook Falkor Atreyu	Celebrate after each obstacle
Yuyulala	Remember cut lines
Nothings	Be spookier
Dad	Turn pages Work on ironing
Cairon	Put auryn around his neck.
