Today was the day of my casts performance of Dissocia! Yesterday was Izzy's cast and they did an amazing job and it all came together so well on the night. Watching the show from an audience perspective was a great opportunity to see how the other cast performed certain aspects of the play and this really helped me to develop my character, Lisa and how I play her.
Today, our cast ran through act 1 and 2.We did this to ensure we had no worries or doubts when it came to the performance this evening. As a whole cast, our main concern was the Britney scene and which order characters are meant to deliver their lines. Because of this, the Britney scene was the first scene we ran through. this run went fairly well however we still had some issues we needed to iron out at this stage. The main problem was that everyone needed a reminder of cue lines and when to move arounf the stage. The problem wasn't so much with the actual lines we have, because everyone was prompt on their lines however not so prompt on their cue lines. This made the scene loose pace, which is one of the most imporant factors of the scene as the idea is to portray that everyone involved is trying their hardest to stop Lisa from finding her hour. To improve on this, we ran through this scene again in the full run we did later on in the day. We ensured this was the focus of our rehearsals as this was the scene that needed the most attention as it is the scene where the audience start to understand the meaning and motives of this act.
