GREAT SHOW EVERYONE!! CONGRATS!!! VERY PROUD OF YOU ALL

GRADE: B PLUS

NOTES:

Cast- Don’t open the curtain up so wide-Your exposing backstage-Micah will open the curtain from now on

 

Cast-Don’t do another Circle up in the staging area after we go backstage. We do warm ups as a FULL cast. When six of you do your own warm up backstage you break up our ensemble-also it is too loud. Please don’t do it again (Abel/Macy/Cara/Aimey and a few others)

 

Cast-Don’t complain about your hats or costumes not being done. The costume crew have over 80 costumes to finish and they are spectacular. You will probably never wear as beautiful a costume in a show than at TCC.

 

Cast-Plan ahead-Most of you should be in the staging area and not backstage when you’re not at all-If you listen you can hear the show in the staging area.

 

Cast-Stay out of dressing rooms DURING show UNLESS you have a change. If Leslie tells you to leave the dressing room and you ignore her it lets us know probably not to cast you in the future so PLEASE listen to the adults backstage.

 

Cast-Please don’t complain about your costume or the show-Stay positive!

Goodnight-Missed solo in opening

Marshall-Keep diction clean and volume loud-I lost some of your lines coming down steps

Dylan/Genie-May want to have speed through of your scenes before show-Your scenes were slow with many pauses that do not make sense.

Emily-Please don’t say lines until Carpet takes you and Dylan back to your palace

After Whole New World

Stephen-watch Diction

Trey-Be behind Elephant NOT in FRont

Dylan-watch body position ¾ out onstage (Floor) and Platform during wedding

Kynley-You keep upstaging Dylan in his scenes-SEE ME

Kynley only throw one grape at Jasmine

Kynley-Don’t chase tail during Aladdin proposing to Jasmine

Coins were left onstage for 6 scenes-nobody picked them up

Everyone-Keep Volume strong!!!!

 

Curtain call was sloppy

NOTES

Narrators Shelby, Caroline, and Macy need to be louder-especially Shelby. 

Shelby is blocking herself. 

Caroline needs to come downstage to talk.

CAST-SPEAD OUT ON THE STAGE-BEFORE ONE JUMP

When on platform, come forward to speak to raILING, then back into places.(Abel/Emily)

Attendants come up steps quicker to have time for announcements-come up before music starts.

Kynley still losing monkey physical at times.  Peyton and Kynley remember to face audience, and stop looking at directors. Both need to not laugh during scenes. Peyton-Don't move or Jasmine might trip over you!!!

Kynley say exactly from floor instead of cart.

Note for all actors,  be aware of center, and stay behind tape.

Absolutely no talking behind curtains, and stop peeking out through curtains, it is distracting for the audience and others performing on stage.

Abel/Macy-Stay off cell phones backstage

Cast-No more hitting people in the sides-Some people are getting hurt with that game you play

Cast stay off the back exit steps to center palace

Dylan- you need to speak up when saying your lines-FILL THE STUDIO THEATRE, and you keep dropping them, and you are still not off book. go over lines again and again-

Kynley needs to hug Aladdin when she comes to unlock his handcuffs.

Kynley zombie walk forward not sideways you are blocking yourself.

Kynley-Carpet will help you gather treasure

Carpet rides needs to be center, you can use cave entrance as reference or tape on floor.

Kynley needs to laugh louder after Aladdin fools Genie with 3 wishes.

Towns people need to be busy in the entire town, not just standing in front of the market place.  There will be a cart in the spot where Madison was standing so you all will have to spread out and not stand there.

Townspeople-move around before one-jump-sell stuff-fill the stage???

Curtains on the catwalk need to be open for Whole New World

Dylan/Atlantis-See me to work Carpet bit

Elephant issues with Jasmine getting on

Sultan needs a look action then reaction with carpet.  Look at carpet, then come back, say the line about the carpet, pause, then say the next line. 

Jafar still needs to speak up, Lago and Jafar make sure you are center for your song and dance. Better Jafar on volume-keep going-fill the space

Claire/Bethany/Alana/Layla/Jack need help with the dances

Layla late on stage for puzzle.

 

Notes Monday

Shelby-Need volume as narrator
Narrators-Please smile all the time
Razoul-Look up when you speak and not down at the ground
Marshall-Don't look down during Why Me dance
Trey and Jack-you forgot everything we worked on as your Princes
Abel-You need to do something with your hands as Sultan-watch your voice-you slip out of what we worked on
Ethan-Jafars Genie needs a vocal and you look down too much
Dylan-look over your lines-especially 90-97
Kynley and Peyton-too much business during Aladdin/Jasmine scene (Marketplace)
Razoul-Enunciate-open your mouth when you speak-don't paraphrase lines
Need to look at those chorus members that don't know dances
Marshall/Emily/Dylan/Shelby-VOLUME during show!
Abel-play your punctuation in your scene-
Emily 3/4 out
Peyton/Kynley-cut dance at end
Atlantis-more reaction to everything
Trey keep your hands out of your pocket at end of show
Some people are not singing chorus numbers??????
The Prince/Attendants entrances need to be worked
90-97 really rough-train wreck
Narrators set treasure in cave when props arrive
Exits need to be bigger from all characters and defined
Jasmine/Aladdin-lost definition of (Beats) between lines
Jasmine/Aladdin-there needs to be more of a connection with you both on whole new world-Too mechanical!
Needs to be more celebration by everyone at end

MORE NOTES FROM FRIDAY

Aladdin Notes 07/17/15

 

·         Shelby – need clearer diction and get off book

·         Are arms supposed to be bent or straight on “nights” and “days” in ARABIAN NIGHTS

·         Macy – you are profiling on “Jafar, Jafar” pg. 22

·         Shelby – deliver “Prince Dadu Rahn Rahn” downstage – when you say it upstage, we can’t hear the line. You can indicate him with your upstage hand.

·         Kynley and Payton – try not moving as much in your scenes – sometimes you steal focus from the scene.

·         Christian – I love your Prince walk – good job!

·         We need to work on ARABIAN NIGHTS to clean it up

·         Don’t look at your feet or at each other when you dance

·         Good timing in dialog between ONE JUMP #1 and ONE JUMP #2 – thank you for fixing that!

·         Hannah Cowan – you turned too early on “Thief!” – ONE JUMP

·         Jasmine – I would like to work with you to check pitches at the beginning of ONE JUMP REPRISE

·         Narrators – character choices, relationships with each other – sometimes you guys seem mad at each other or at something else.

·         Pacing – pg. 42-43

·         Marshall – your fictions is really improving! Please continue to work on that on EVERY line – I still sometimes have a hard time understanding you.

·         WHY ME – check mm. 19-24

·         WHY ME – start laugh at end sooner

·         CAST – DO NOT PULL ON THE CURTAINS

·         Guards – I did not hear 3 laughs on pgs. 46-47. Know where those are and remember to laugh

·         Lauren – pg. 47-48 need clearer diction

·         Ethan – look out more on FRIEND LIKE ME, not down at Aladdin – I can’t hear/understand you as well when you look down *this is a repeat note

·         FRIEND LIKE ME – picture on SL and SR during “Column A/ Column B” SL seems crowded – faces need to turn out – claps not together

·         Good job Londyn and Brynlee – your faces are always out towards the audience!

·         I don’t understand what Kynley is doing when the carpet is flying

·         Atlantis – good entrance! Your face/reaction could be bigger when you are pacing with Ethan about getting a girl

·         PRINCE ALI – people in procession listen to feel the steady beat

·         Cast- don’t fidget with your feet. If you are blocked to stay in one spot, stand still – moving steals focus

·         Hannah Cowan- you did not look engaged during PRINCE ALI

·         Marshall – practice diction on “Abu Dabi Ababwas?”

·         Aimey – you were blocking Marshall on pg. 68. Check blocking

·         Ethan – pg. 70 – “you lied” is dragging a little bit. Try another tactic to delay the “zing” of that line. Stuttering makes you, the actor, sound unsure.

·         Ethan – you are blocking yourself on pg. 72 – check blocking

·         Jasmine- great job on your vocals on A WHOLE NEW WORLD – great projection and beautiful tone!

·         Chorus entrance – A WHOLE NEW WORLD

·         WHOLE NEW WORLD- this number sounds great! Good volume, nice singing!

·         Marshall – wait until music is over to say your line on pg. 82

·         Good freeze Guards! Only Brynlee moved a little bit..

·         We need to work PRINCE ALI REPRISE ending with Chorus

·         Ethan – wait for music cue to end before you speak – the music is covering your line

·         Peyton – stealing focus on pgs. 90-91.

·         Wait for music to finish before saying lines on pg. 93 – music is covering the lines

·         Atlantis – good job! I am seeing better reactions – keep working that!

·         Check melody on mm. 10 A WHOLE NEW WORLD FINALE         

FRIDAY RUN THRU NOTES-

Narrators-I don't think individual characters are working. I think you all need to smile more and be in "happy" storytellers that like each other
-Lauren-your character seems more like the actress is scared than the character
-Macy/Caroline/Shelby-You three need to smile more and watch your physical
-Have good enunciation and diction when doing your lines-your storytellers
-Macy-don't slouch
-You all need to have the great energy and smiling that Meagan has in the show
-During your song in the cave-you need to set up the treasure-We will work this Monday

Marshall-Iago
You must get even louder-You have grown by leaps and bounds but still swallow some line and some lines trail off and get quieter
-You look down at the ground during WHY ME
-You must go bigger with your character-especially at the end when you get the lamp-You must be MAD with power-Those lines have "!!!!!!!" at the end of them so that is your characters peak!!!
-Don't loo at me or Laura when you perform

Aimey-Iago
Your still looking at me when you perform-keep your focus out
-I know you may not like Jafar but he can make you rich beyond your wildest belief-I think your more annoyed with him. You must be a team with him and you don't like anyone else.  I would change some of your hatred towards Jafar-Only mock him when he steals your ideas or doesn't give you credit. Establish how you feel about others on the stage more than focusing purely on how much you hate Jafar-It limits your performance
-No script onstage-get your lines down

Ethan-Genie
Don't look at me while performing-Keep your focus onstage
I don't see a difference between Aladdin's Genie and Jafar's. You must make Jafar's  Genie Dark-Mean-Powerful!!!
Smile more in Friend Like Me-Get outta your head and have fun. I'm going to add the carpet on the platform during that song to help you have fun!
Have a better physical as Jafars Genie-Arms crossed and blow yourself up-Different vocal-BIG BOOMING scary voice
-We need more from you-More fun-More Energy-BE BIG! Too much in your head
-Don't speak until music play out on extra music
-Be a magician!!

Abu-Kinley
More monkey noises
-Don't look at me when performing-keep focus onstage
-Don't smile when Abu is angry
-Don't do too much where you steal focus of the scene
-During cave scene-I'm going to get you a bag to steal all the treasure
-Only dance with Raja a few times at end
-Don't smile when Raja hisses at you in market place
-Exactly needs to be bigger on mocking
-You fall out of monkey physical-not consistant


Peyton-Raja
-Don't look at me when performing
-Don't move during market scene with Jasmine. If you move by Jasmines feet she may trip on you
-Stay out so audience can see you
-Don't do too much where you steal focus of the scene(s) your in

Jasmine-Emily
Don't look at me when performing-Keep focus onstage
-Keep your body 3/4 out-no profiling
-When you say "why would someone steal a loaf of bread?" your body position is weird almost like your ready to sing a solo-relax and focus more on Aladdin than facing straight out
-Be more natural with your body-you come off stiff onstage-maybe your dress will help.
-More reaction to the Princes being presented to you
-More reaction on Sultan wanting to marry you
-More reaction to Prince Ali? Does he look familiar
-More reaction to flying carpet before A whole new world
-All your reactions need to be played BIGGER
-Much more reaction on Prince Ali procession-Who is this guy?????
-More reaction on carpet traveling to far off places-Wonderment!!! You really need to up all your reactions
-Don't be late onstage page 51

Guards
-You need to focus more-know where your suppose to be
-Facial expressions BIG TIME
-Hannah-Jump on your lines quicker as Guard 1
-You need to march on/march off-your entrances and exits are week
-Elizabeth/Devin-more facial expression
-Don't look at me while you perform (Brynlee) keep focus onstage
-three laughs are off in the cave-WORK MONDAY

Razoul-Stephen
Enunciation
Facial expression
Go over your lines
Go over your blocking since you missed Friday
You cannot afford to miss anymore rehearsal-either can Anna

Parents-

PLEASE pick your child up by 4pm. I have had to stay waiting for rides until 4:45 the last three rehearsals. Remember we cannot leave your child outside by themselves waiting for a ride-Its very unsafe-So please arrive on time.

Please text me if your child will be late or absent at rehearsal. We had cast members miss rehearsal that they did not have listed on their conflict sheet. My number is 918-687-8825 TEXT or call if they are going to miss or be late. Excessive absences from rehearsal will lead to dismissal from the cast.

Please let your child know they must sing while at rehearsal-we have a few that are NOT singing. We did not cast 57 children who wanted to be in the show. We need everyone to sing.

Please do not have your child come to rehearsal if they are NOT called. We had some show up Thursday and they were NOT called.

Forms were due Friday and I am missing 27 cast members forms-I NEED them Monday!
