Dear
Stage
Stars,
Welcome
aboard a unique vehicle to the world of imagination, wisdom and fun:
the stage!
Let’s
all hope that this amazing journey turns out to be a life-changing
experience for all of us!
That
being said… we
have less than four months left for our performance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, you actually have till next week to have learnt every single
line of yours! (No buts…)
Here
are the things you should do during the following week:
1.
Study
really hard!!!!!!!!!!! No
kidding!
2.
Find
your teachers on Facebook/Messenger
and add us, since we have to make a Messenger group (Stage Stars) in
which we will be discussing issues that come up. (This will be the
official page with no silly comments! Should you wish to just chat,
you may create another group, thank you!)
3.
After the group is formed on Messenger, the songs
of the musical will be uploaded. It is up to you to learn
them by heart
(yeap, till next Sunday that is!).
4.
We will never get the idea of what happens in ‘Annie’ if we don’t
do some research. So… Search
for the fact files behind the musical
(you will be tested next week 😊).
Who
first thought of and created ‘Annie’? (You will be surprised!)
Which
year and which city is the musical placed in?
What
is the social/financial situation of the time?
How
do you think an orphan might have felt in such circumstances?
Some
of the names of the musical actually have a real meaning. Try to
guess what they imply!
5.
Make sure you highlight
all your lines
(check for changes) and try to deeply
understand your character.
To achieve this, do some brainstorming! Write
next to your lines how your character feels or
anything you think might help you see through your role (for instance
who made you feel this way and what you would like to do to this
person). This will help you understand which gestures to make, what
your style may be and how to actually become your role!
6.
After doing this, spit
the mirror!
Όχι
για να μη σας ματιάξετε! Stay
in front of the mirror and rehearse,
rehearse, rehearse! Try gestures, facial expressions, sing, spit
(wipe and spit again!) until you get to like what you see. If it
helps, record yourselves and try to understand what you would like to
change.
That’s
all folks! We are pretty sure you will get to do all of the above
because we know you love what you are doing here: staging
your whole existence!!!!!
Keep up the good work guys!!!
