Disney Lion King Notes RUN THRU/All Called Tomorrow-Wednesday!

EVERYONE IS CALLED TOMORROW

NOTES-Work tomorrow STOP/START RUN THRU
Jaxon (Young Simba) Work on Volume! So important-You will be mic'd but you must be louder especially on the lines you are sad. Remember to face out and don't turn your back to the audience. REACT to everything. We need to fix some blocking issues with Scar and Sarabi scenes. I need you ro React bigger to Timon and Pumbaa .Pick on Zazu more.(Work with Kurt)

Abigail (Young Nala) Stay in character and don't lose your focus if something funny happens on stage. React to EVERYTHING. Don't turn your body upstage. Pick on Zazu more (Work with Kurt)

Devin (Zazu) Still need to be bigger with Zazu-More frustration. Keep working with Diction. (Work with Jonah)

Dylan (Simba) More Anger with Nala. Your reflection pool needs lots of work-I don't see a struggle still-that should be a very emotional moment when you see your father and your younger self playing in the reflection pool. More energy-Match Timon and Pumba in ACuma Ma tada. Need to see your decision with Rifiki bigger! Try to play more as Nala being your friend and how much she means to you in Can You feel the Love tonight. (Work with Kurt)

Kate (Nala) Wow! Great work today-Keep giving her growth. Don't drop character back into Kate on exit. Can you feel the Love tonight needs work-Come in sooner and let those animals surround you stage right and let them kbow your feelings for Simba. Stay strong!!!

Zoe (Rifiki) Great physical and voice-Just need you more confident on your songs which Laura can help you. One of your exits is a little bit too bizarre so see me

Ethan-Mufasa-Came late-Keep working on presence and Physical.

Atlantis-Sarabi-Great anger towards Scar. Keep working on your physical-NO ATLANTIS-Shoulders back

Christian (Scar) Get your lines down-That is REALLY stopping you. More connection with Hyenas-They work for you. More anger towards Mufasa. Try to not turn your body upstage during scenes play 3/4 OUT. Your loud laugh with Young Simba exiting is too big and comes out of no where

Mallory (Timon) See me for some bits your RUSHING in your scene. I have a mistaken identity for you in Scene 13 I need to work with you.

Reagon (Pumbaa) Try not to look at me when your performing-Keep focus onstage at all times. Your puking isn't working. Stay over by Timon to get the earthworm-If you move into the chorus is steals focus from the scene between Timon and Simba (See me about Pride Rock scene 13)

Hyenas: Claudia-Try not to look at me when you are performing-Keep your great focus and energy onstage. Hannah-Look over your lines Ed-Don''t rush your comedy OR forget the bits we added with wanting to eat ZAZU and the walking away and coming back with Scar

Lionesses: Some of you need to REACT much more. Some of you looked bored onstage-You are a HUGE part of the story and you need to REACT to everything onstage when you are on OR with each other.

Blue Birds: Don't block yourself onstage-Addison you need to sing and not forget when you fly on-You missed a flight. Remember the three of you only need to worry about yourself-Do not tell each other what to do.
