The Wardrobe (Week 8)

This week was our final chance to rehears before next weeks shows, we had all our scenes blocked, so we all practiced our scenes in order to get the movements smooth and efficient, after we ran the show in full whilst plotting the music and how long it would go on for, I think that this run through just helped the group to not stress about whether we would get the show finished in time and it also helped that we had the music to work with as it really helped to get into character during the performance.

Later this week we were looking at costume and props which took some time, but once it was done everyone seemed to enjoy playing their characters which really excited the group for the show to come, this will help for next week as Sam Holcroft the writer of "The Wardrobe" likes writing for young people as they bring energy to the performance, and I think all of this excitement will be turned into energy next week.

We finally managed to get the wardrobe in a space where we could use it in rehearsals, this helped settle the groups nerves as we worried about breaking it at first, towards the end of the week we looked at the prologue and the epilogue, as a group we wanted it to look like our characters were echoes of the wardrobe and so we played around with a few ideas again, but the finished project looks fantastic and I cannot wait to preform it next week.
