Last night was a night for;
Line learning. Otherwise known as "scripts on the table, lets see how much we don't yet know".
Accent improving.
On Sunday afternoon some of the witches got together to watch The Crucible. Hard going or what. As a result of watching the film we decided to alter our accents slightly from Bostonian to English/just arrived in the US and picking up the lingo. As a result, by the third read through of the night, the accents were all much improved and far more natural than they have been.
Stuff learned last night (pinched from Asst. Director Demon)
1). The vicars daughter keeps forgetting the Lords Prayer. Is she getting tongue tied, can't she concentrate with the shouting going on - or is the essence of the play taking hold. Hmmmm.
2). Birds can throw their voices and sound as if they are coming from inside the hall when they clearly aren't.
3). Tabby cats are very nosey.
4). Her has a bird at the bottom of the garden that sings "remember you're a womble".
5). Director Witch likes egg far too much.
6). I remembered the words (most of them) just not necessarily where they fit into the script. Not very helpful.
7). Blue plastic trays breed like rabbits.
