· Katelyn – look over your shoulder to the audience and smile when you enter as a Mother

Pg. 39 – Ancestors – don’t forget Kate has a solo on “She will never be a perfect bride”

Pg. 39- Hannah come DS more to deliver line “Poor kid…” and bigger exit. The script says you SLINK OFF. How would you slink?

REFLECTION –

Pg. 41 – Drew – I cannot hear this line over the music. Turn your face up and out and see the blossoms at the back of the theatre. PROJECT your voice all the way to the back.

· Drew – everything you say should be as loud as “LEAVE ME ALONE, CHILD”.

KEEP EM GUESSIN (PART 1)

· Pg. 57 – Hannah – sounds like you’re saying “freel”

A GIRL WORTH FIGHTING FOR

Pg. 79 – Elizabeth – do not laugh. This is a very serious scene.

WRITTEN IN STONE/REFLECTION (REPRISE)

· Pg. 85 – Ancestors – good entrance on “See the pretty little China doll..”!! Yay!

· Autumn – I would like to work with you again on this number – Please practice this with the voice track to review words and pitches.

Pg. 88 – Zoe says line, then music starts. Zoe – bigger reaction to your mixed up words. I am seeing you react, but you could do more.

Ethan – keep laughing until you close the door – stay in character until it is closed.

Pg. 90 – Yao – Project lines

Pg. 93 All lines need to be louder! Can’t hear them over the music.

MORE NOTES FROM WEDNESDAY

MULAN NOTES – 07/20/16

ANCESTORS – Good vocal choices for your characters! Please work to project every line – you must be heard over the music.

WRITTEN IN STONE – work on SL circle – let everyone in!

Pg. 28 – Hannah – you do the rooster crow from behind the screen.

Pg. 29 – FA ZHOU – You missed your solo “Ancestors help this girl…”

HONOR TO US ALL – This number sounds great, but needs more volume with the BEAUTIFUL singing! Some of you need to review words on pg. 36 of this number – “Ancestors help this girl…” I saw some of you not singing or looking lost – you probably know who you are. :)

Pg. 32- MULAN – say “Ouch is beauty supposed to hurt?” sooner. That is a really quick music cue.

Haley – hit woodblock with same number as strikes.

CAST – react to Mulan and the Matchmaker – some of you are just watching the action and not responding to it.

Pg. 39 – HONG – HONOR TO US ALL (REPRISE) – You missed your solo “Little one, stand aside..”

Hannah – work on your exit on pg. 40 – it looked like Hannah walking away, not Mushu exiting.

REFLECTION – Autumn – you were looking off towards stage right while you were singing. Please shift your focus out toward the audience and let your arms be relaxed – you can use them to be expressive, but please don’t grab your wrist/arm with your hand.

Pg. 40 – REFLECTION – ANCESTORS and FAMILY – you need to PROJECT more – I could not hear you clearly – Fa Zhou – I could not hear your line on pg. 41 at all.

SOLDIERS marching – March with your whole foot, not toe first. – Autumn and Elizabeth I noticed you doing this.

Pg. 45 – Hannah – Mushu BURSTS in – Make this entrance much bigger – URGENT!

Pg. 45 – WRITTEN IN STONE REPRISE – ANCESTORS – entrance was late. Count 4 measures, then sing.

Pgs. 50-51 – Hannah – look up to say these lines and sing this song – Don’t look at the floor.

Pg. 52- Eathan – you growled “Nothing will stop me.” Take growly-ness out of your voice. Say a word instead of “Raah” when you exit. Try “MARCH!”

Pg. 62 – YAO – I cannot hear you line very well – Deepen your voice a bit and aim your volume towards the back of the audience.

SOLDIERS – Review “I’ll Make a Man” words – “force of a great typhoon”, “strength of a raging fire” – I’m still hearing some singers mix those words up. – EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE SINGING ON STAGE!

Pg. 70 – Group 2 needs to sing louder.

GIRL WORTH FIGHTING FOR – Dylan – late entrance on “Paler than the moon” and “What do we want” – tempo was behind (Dylan). – Yao and Ling need to PROJECT solos – “Na!” was late – March on the beat!!

Avalanche – timing with music.

ANCESTORS – WRITTEN IN STONE (REPRISE)/REFLECTION – pg. 85 -Entrance on “See the pretty little china doll” was late and the tempo was behind the beat.

MULAN – I would like to review WRITTEIN IN STONE (REPRISE) – pg. 87-88 with you.

MULAN NOTES – Week of 07/11/16 – 07/15/16

MULAN JR. NOTES-

Pg. 15 Cody have sound affects for thunder, wind, marching, and avalanche.

Ancestors look out to audience when saying lines.

Pg. 20- Megann Halford is lost in song. Jenna and Mya please be in charge of Megann and helping her get the choreography correct. We trust you two because you know what you are doing.

Pg. 25- Autumn don’t do the pose until they yell Mulan! Strong Soldier Pose!

Pg. 26- Don’t look down Mushu.

Pg. 26- Mulan come out during Mushu’s last monologue, to get ready for scene. Dovetail scene exits and entrances.

Pg. 28- Drew be more Downstage in scene. Drew wait 2/3 count after every line to make it slower and lower your voice more for the character.

Pg. 28- Mushu work on the poses behind the tapestry. RUSHED loses comedy!

Pg. 38- Haley be serious during the scene when hitting the wooden block. You body should be positioned straight out at attention-Don’t slump-Focus out. Sharp focus out!

Pg. 42- Kenzie pick up the chair, instead of dragging it on ground. But thanks for taking it off-Can you bring it on?

Pg. 43- Drew stay in character throughout the show, even if something goes wrong. You can’t show your mistakes. Your old man’s voice is inconsistant.

Pg. 43- Good job Zoe on commanding the stage, continue to develop the character. We need to work your vocal-You are doing too much with mouth movements.

Pg. 43- Jaxon be a little louder on your line going to fight for father.

Pg. 44- A lot of people have “shy hands” meaning they hold their arms, or put their arms and hand behind them acting nervous. We will work on what to do with your hands. Don’t grab your arms.

Pg. 49- There should be no scripts on stage. (Hannah) Please call for line, and I’ll happily give it to you.

Pg. 50- Mushu play every punctuation and have pauses between your sentences. You’re speeding through everything. You look down a lot-Focus Mushu up and out.

-Mushu you keep adjusting your clothes-you lose physical of Mushu

Pg. 52- Prisoners don’t smile. (Mya/Goodnight)

Pg. 52- Ethan actually pick up Liu-Mya (WORK) in the air in front of you when talking to her.

Pg. 55- Mushu don’t look down. Focus up and out.

Pg. 60- John Carter are you going to dance in the song? If you want to be in the scene, you have to learn the choreography.

Pg. 61- Autumn you were lost in what was going on. Call for line.

Pg. 65- Christian make sure you jump. On sword swipe

Pg. 74- Huns there should be no smiling. Have windows in the front and back to make sure we see all the Huns.

Pg. 79- Aiden you should be looking left and right and everywhere for your father.

Pg. 80- Everyone in scene should go down on their knees to honor Shang’s father.

Pg. 82- We will work on the avalanche scene.

Pg. 86- Mushu say the lines, don’t wait for the Huns to begin to awake.

Pg. 87- Shan Yu say the lines out to the audience.

Pg 82. Elizabeth and Katherine you cannot smile and giggle as Chinese soldiers-Take it seriously

Pg. 87- Mushu don’t wait for music cues.

Pg. 89- Don’t prompt lines for other actors. (Hannah)

Pg. 89- Stay forward Emperor, don’t move around.

Pg. 90- Dylan work on your diction. It’s becoming hard to understand what you are saying.

Pg. 91- Chenongsam is supposed to be Haley, not Megan Sumpter.

Pg. 96- Don’t stop for music. (Aiden/Hannah) Keep going even if music does not play

Pg. 96- There should be two circles Mulan and Shan Yu.

Pg. 97- Ethan you need to be downstage in order for the fire to hit you.

More Notes:

-Atlantis don’t laugh at your horse adlibs on stage-Stay focused

-Atlantis-Missed to Horse ad-libs

-Atlantis-Comment on Mulans walk as man-Get caught talking bit we worked???

-After Hannah says say anything to Mulan you have a Naaaay

-Hannah-Let Atlantis take care of the crickets-You worry about Mushu

-Autumn/Aiden-Come see me Monday on parts you’re confused with in Musical-You two look uncertain at times

-Ethan-You need to move downstage to be on the same plane as Hannah to get burned after fight scene

-Ethan watch GROWLY vocals-It hurts your character

-Dylan-I can’t understand you with your character voice

-Devin I can’t hear you most of the time

-Christian-You trail off the ends of your line

-Kenzie/Claudia-You are inconsistent on your reactions/Relationships to Mulan

-Drew-You voice id inconsistent for father

-Zoe-Great sharpness in vocal but you’re doing something weird with your mouth as Chi Fu

-Haley need to work on physical of matchmakers assistant

-Ancestors-Need to work on vocals and physicals

-Maddie-look over your lines-PLEASE

-Hannah-get your lines down-you are so unsure….

-Aiden-Keep strong physical with Shang-Work sharper vocals with him-You sound too much like Aiden!

GENERAL NOTES –From Laura

· Thank you for learning and listening to the music outside of rehearsal! It has really paid off – overall the singing sounds great! There are a few numbers that we will continue to review, but I am so happy with the hard work so far!

· Continue to work on diction and enunciating EVERY WORD.

Pg. 18 – FATHERS – Please sing in the octave that is appropriate for your voice on “Father must protect the family…” Girls and unchanged boy voices should sing this as written, boys with changed voices sing ONE OCTAVE lower (NOT TWO OCTAVES lower).

Pg. 24 – “I pray to you, be kind to me” – you is SHORT, not held out like the first time on pg. 20

Pg. 29 – Yay! HONOR TO ALL (PT. 1 and PART 2) sounded great! Much better – thank you!

We do not need music cue #11 SOLDIER’S ENTRANCE to be played twice.

Pg. 44 – GRANDMOTHER FA and FA LI – Please project your lines; I had a hard time hearing you.

Pg. 45-46 – MULAN/ANCESTORS – WRITTEN IN STONE (REPRISE) - great job getting the harmony on this number! Keep it up!

Pg. 60 – KEEP EM GUESSIN (PT. 2) – Please listen to music track to review the harmony on this part of the number. We will review this in rehearsal.

Pg. 62-63 – YAO and LING – Please project your lines on these pages – I have a hard time hearing you. LING – Try only cracking your voice once or twice MAXIMUM – I am concerned about your vocal health! It is also hard to understand you when you crack your voice repeatedly.

Pg. 76- SHANG/SOLDIERS/CHI-FU/YAO,LING, QIAN-PO – Review A GIRL WORTH FIGHTING FOR with you tracks. We will review this in rehearsal.

Pg. 81 – LING – Please don’t crack your voice on “What should we do, Captain?” – this line is hard to understand and hear when you crack your voice.

We need to work on timing AVALANCHE with music cues.

Pg. 85- MULAN/ANCESTORS – Please review WRITTEN IN STONE/REFLECTION (REPRISE). I will work with you on Mon., 07/18 on this.

Pg. 87 – SHAN-YU – Better using “Onward!” instead of yell for your war cry. Let’s look at the other times you yell and add a word. Better on growling, but I still hear too much gravel in your voice on some lines. Be very aware of that so you can save your voice.

Pg. 91- LING – Please do not crack your voice on the line “Like tug of war”. I cannot understand this line at all.

Pg. 96 – Soldiers as girls entrance – work on your “girly” behavior. It should be funny, but realistic.
