The argument over the song felt a little trivial
Blocking/setting was realistic and good
Smoother emotional transitions needed, otherwise pretty steady
Talking is slower since the R+J project, but still needs a little less speed to be perfect
Work on body movements to play the part of a man better (personally I think wearing the skirt didn't help)
A few longer pauses between lines
Good chemistry/balance/volume/dynamic between actors/characters
How is time passing? Explain?
A little more physical contact
Arguments need variation instead of being the same stuff yelled over and over
Work on varying tone when speaking, be more affirmative, “im the man” speech felt forced.
Actually get physical when shaking lili, otherwise youre breaking character
Practice with props, empty set made the whole thing feel weirdly hollow
Dont break character
“Do you still love me?” At the end was too quiet to be impactful
Wording of some lines needs work to make more grammatical sense
More confidence when yelling at lili
Overall I think the feedback I got from today was a big improvement over the feedback I got from playing Friar Lawrence in the first half of the year. I still need to personally work on solidifying the character and mannerisms of Guy but I do a good job of contrasting with his wife. I still speak a little too fast and at some times too quietly but it’s a marked improvement compared to the last project of this nature. I think a lot of that stems from working with a more responsive partner as well as the script itself being something more original and collaborative rather than feeling as if I were acting the part of a character using wor someone else had written. I also seem to have potentially gained a little confidence or experience from the last project as some of the feedback received pointed at some of my biggest issues being somewhat resolved (mainly speaking too fast and unconfidently).
