Your Final Notes!!



Thank you for keeping the energy up for our preview audience!! I am so proud of each and every one of you.

Sophie – black socks!

Act I:

Oct  - let Scap say “about these trousers” instead of interrupting.

Maddie – YES! Good look for you and the schemer’s boogie!

All – YOU GUYS ARE KILLING IT UP THERE!!

Leander – volume and articulation!

Selina/Scap – Good job on the cloak!

Lea – wait for Syl to say Zamboni before you yell Zerbinette.

Scapin – please don’t cover your mouth on “erratic gentleman I told you about” – makes it v. hard to understand you.

Scap/Arg – Get past the hedge on “I can get him back…” “NO”. Make that old guy run farther!

Geronte – money bad jingles too much when you hit it against the ground during your tantrum.

George – that was the saddest walk offstage that I have seen. Good job!!

Act II:

Ginger – keep the smiley sun turned smiley side away from the audience until going onto the stage.

Ger/Scapin – I think you dropped some lines at the top of this scene? Ger asks about his son before Scapin tells him “they” are after him.

Scap – say the camouflage line after pulling out the bag – we lost it entirely in you running over and sticking your head behind the wall.

Scaaaaaaaaaapiiiiiin – you caaaaaan’t make noise with the sword when you are Scapin, only when you are the foreigners.

Ger – can you pick up the bag and throw it over the hedge instead of kicking it? Not through the hedge, over it. We gotta get that thing offstage!

Scapin – where’s your PTA necklace? I know Erin put it with the outfit…

Syl – gooood sneaking away during reunion

Nerine – “okay” needs to be louder. All your other lines were loud enough, though!

Mob – getting spread a little thin again…

Scaaaaaapin  - flirt with Argante longer at the window. Staaand in the window, lean out, wiggle your chest, wink some, whatever, just really reel him in before you disappoint him.

All – The chase scene is dragging a little. Make sure the cues are picked up fast fast fast!!

Wolf – when gma slug comes out, you question what is in your booze. The whole time she is onstage. That is the blocking, please follow it.

George – I think we need to shorten the wedding at the end a bit – it’s running too long

All – George appreciation at the end needs to run faster… tighten the space in-between people coming up. Next people start going up as the last one is ending.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NATHANIEL!!!

Act II ended up with more notes than Act I for the first time… Act I ran quick and good and smooth – Act II felt like it lost a lot of energy. Remember to keep that energy up and flowing!!

Thank you for a great show tonight! I’m so excited for opening tomorrow!

<3 Love you guys so much!!
