Character NOTES:

Brailyn-Alex 
Look over song lyrics-especially STEAK. In Living In Paradise-You need to play the comedy to the audience in seeing Marty as a STEAK and play the sense of Urgency of you not eating him and the struggle in Living in Paradise. There is a build in that song from seeing Marty as a STEAK and then seeing Gloria-Melman-Marty as a steak-to the charge. Need to see Alex's struggle and his fight with what he sees to what reality is- Continue to play your ACTION-REACTION in ALL scenes. Play your punctuation-especially the !!!!!!!! You are doing a GREAT job!

Hannah-Marty-Keep your focus onstage-You are doing a great job but your focus is off. Try not to direct others or direct onstage. Make your own choices and just worry about your own character. You have great ideas but trust in the direction given to you. Play your punctuation bigger and the scenes with urgency-you want to help Alex and its life or death BECAUSE he is your best friend!!!

Joey-Melman-Focus-Focus-Focus- is the name of the game for you. You need more Melman and less Joey on stage. The littlest thing can make you lose focus. Play the brave Melman when you want to go save Alex and play your punctuation-URGENCY and more physical with your character! Remember Melman likes Gloria-Play that into the production on line deliver and the hypochondriac lines, Pick up your cues,

Atlantis-Gloria-You need to be bigger and sassy. You monitor yourself to much and downplay the role. Stay focused onstage no matter what happens-Play your punctuation and urgency!!!

Kaden-Skipper-Play your punctuation and character voice-Too much Kaden. You are large and in charge.

Sadie-Maurice-You call it the way you see it with King Julian-Play your punctuation-Take care of Mort. Please help Mort onstage.

Noah-Mort-Make sure to stick with Sadie (Maurice) and Londyn (King Julian) Hold their hand UNLESs you have a WAAAAAAAA!!!! downstage-No back to the audience and no wondering or jumping up and down for no reason.

Londyn-King Julian. Keep an eye on Mort. Be more paranoid about the Zoosters-Remember your using them to get rid of the Foosa's-That is not playing yet-Play your punctuation more!!! Please help me with Mort.

Kowalski/Private/Rico-More sharper with Skipper. He is your faithful leader-no matter what-Play farther DS on opening.

Foosa's You need to be much more scarier coming on with your great physical-Make noises-scary faces. Don't stand on top of steps-stand on other steps-SEE ME

Lemurs-More lemur physical and sounds.
