When running through our part of the performance we had to make sure that our energy was high and focussed throughout. Although we didn't make any changes when we were in the New Theatre, it was clear for us as performers to see the things that needed improving. For example refining songs that we sing as a unison and any transitions to be made clearer. It would be a better rehearsal next time as we will have props and costumes to bring the performance to life and engage our young audience. The dress rehearsal was performed clearly however it wasn't overly effective as the energy levels could have been higher. Confidence could have been higher, although it was a bit daunting to perform in front of our peers for the first time. However in the next dress rehearsal we will be over this fear and be able to get on with it effectively.
It was useful to watch others perform as we were able to use the power and energy other strands had bought to the performance area. Some strands had costume ready so their performance looked at its best already. For us it is a matter of being slicker and refining movements with our energy suited to what we are doing. Our costumes are mainly focussed around pyjamas. However for me as a Beyoncé dancer, I am going to make my pyjamas look as if I am a dancer too. Overall our performance now just needs refining to be made clearer. Our work was controlled and sustained throughout and would engage children to watch our work, it is useful that the stage is always changing with movement. From one moment there are discoverers to breakfast cereals and at other times there are musical theatre moments going into dance routines and finally ending in music to end the piece. This idea of always changing will keep our young audience engaged at all times.
