  1. So... I don't know who is in this committee in Senior Shakespeare, but it would be awesome to know if there was anyone and also what you have gotten done so far in designing the fight.

  2. Stage movement is going along kind of slowly right now. We have about half of the fight of the first scene designed, and hopefully tomorrow we can make bigger leaps!

  8. For the part where it says Bri kills the little boy, she doesn't, it was a threat, she just slinks away... also before doing so, she slides the knife to Tibalt.

  9. Finally get to see Hannah's fight because my 'net is fixed. GREAT JOB HANNAH! Stage combat is moving kind of slow right now, due to the fact we can't work with the Seniors.......dang scheduling.......But I will find the necessary actors, not to sound stalkery.....

  10. It is looking really good guys! I was concerned with killing the little boy, but that seems to be taken care of. Also who is the little boy? And did you know that there is a strong possibility that Mimi is going to be the Princess?

  11. Sounds good guys! My email is dancercjt@gmail.com if you need to get a hold of me (I'm Balthazar). Also just so you know - I did dance for a long time, so if you either need help with falling or need someone who can fall well, I'm here :)

  12. @ Samara:
    we don't know who the little boy is yet. fergie had the idea that he would be on of the people we cast later on. she wanted to cast the custest, littlest, and most innocent we could find for that.

  13. K, thanks Carley! Today we worked with most of group 2 (see fight), and made some progress and uncovered some issues we will need to work on, as was expected. For instance, we have an issue with timing, and a debate started about when the fights should start compared to when Tibalt enters with the knife. Also, we talked about not having Bri slide the knife to Tibalt, because Tibalt would always have a knife with him. We made some really great progress though, It was fantastic to finally get to work through part of the fight scene, hopefully everyone comes to Jamie's house (Check the acting blog) so we can have all the actors in one place (that will probably be our only time with the whole cast before the showcase!) and have something to show at the showcase. (:

  15. Today we cleared up any confusion over the fight among the actors and we will begin progressing in leaps and bounds next time. Also I got all the contact information from the Senior Shakespeare class, and will be sending out an email to all of them to make sure I have it copied down right. The original fight is being altered a lot right now, and the final draft WILL BE READY BY FRIDAY, Sammy and I are finishing it up right now. Thank you Senior class actors for getting me your contact sheets. Here is a note on the fight, the Posse members in the Senior Shakespeare class will only be fighting other Senior class actors for the MAJORITY of the fight, same goes for the Junior class actors. This way we will be able to get a lot more practice in then we would in the original rough draft of the fight. So.... I think that is it! (:

  16. Today during committee time, Hannah and I finalized a new draft for the Gregory/Sampson/Abram/Balthazaar fight. The effect is very comedic and funny, and will be posted soon!

  17. Alrighty, so, since most of the fights we drafted haven't been able to be rehearsed, since the actors needed were unreachable. So, for showcase, instead of a fight from the play, we will be demonstrating different moves from said fights. Sorry for any confusion.
