The session that shouldn't have been.

First Rod tells us in the rehearsal he is so happy we screwed up and then I screw up some more by leaving my notes in Arnhem. Is this one of these moments the universe is trying to tell you something? Is this an evening that should not ever be mentioned again. Well I’ll take my chances and write al little about it. If I‘m struck by lightening while writing this we’ll all know enough, if not LEARN!

We played a la ronde guilty pleasure style and got kind of stuck in our story’s these are some of the notes which might help us getting unstuck:
* Do time dashes later in the show (things like 5 years earlier)
* Mention in your opening monologue how the guilty pleasure affects your life and try to avoid plot, questions and relations.
* look for details/ shiny objects and don’t be creative (creative/original stuff will come from good listening and group work)
*Be serious and comedy will come.
* If there is stuff unclear to you after the la ronde help yourself and the audience by clarifying it.
* We’re looking for truth (if you feel it is true for the character It can affect people.)

Wow I survived, no big cracks have opened in the earth to swallow me so we just might be on the right track.
GO GO GO Guilty pleasures.

PS did you know I like tot watch the extra bits on dvd’s?
