This evening marked the first rehearsal for the cast of Hamlet or Does Father Reeeeeeally Know Best? and it was great. I decided to try a new blocking technique with the kids. Instead of blocking as the kids went through their lines, I covered each blocking note first, page by page. Once the actors had their blocking notes in their scripts, we then ran through most of the show with the lines and blocking. The kids did really well with on their first blocking run.
Before the cast arrived in the theatre, I sat down with the script and got most of the lighting blocking down and in the computer program. :o) YAY!
This week, I'm planning on pulling out costumes that may work with this production and see what we're lacking. My hope is to have a really well costumed cast for this show, elaborate and colorful. We'll see where that goes...
