In this lesson we rehearsed Ease on down the road and brand new day.
I feel like I have finally got Ease on down the road sorted for me, as I have been practicing it a lot at home, I think though that I could still add more characterisation but I feel like this will come through costume and set. I think when we get the final set in we will end up changing the spacing once again as we haven't tried it yet on the proper yellow brick road staging that we have. I think that I have really developed my character in this number since first learning it, as well as showing the relationships with the friends within this number.
With Brand New Day I had already taught the rent class the dance so in thislesson I just had to teach the friends their parts within the number this wasn't too hard as their movement is a lot simpler than the dancers movements. I think they picked it up really well and that it will look good when it is all put together.
To improve I need to practice the dance in costume so that I know I can do it all in costume, I will do this when I have spare time in the next week before next lesson/rehearsal. For brand new day I need to run it all together and get everyone in to try the singing as well.
