What a full class today! Not only was everyone in attendance, but we also got a lot done. We started by going over exact staging for the confrontation/battle scene at the end. Now that we have a clearer idea of what the other classes are doing, we are better able to picture what the stage will look like. Hyenas and lions should practice their battle movements and sounds.
During the second half of class, Emily E. (tap instructor) came in and finished up the choreography for I Just Can't Wait to be King. Elephants and Wildebeest should make sure they have all the moves down by next week because then they're learning a new dance along with the lions: the Finale.
At the same time, Michelle took the group of buzzards and hyenas out to practice the music and moves to Be Prepared. Keep working on that, guys!
Next week will be our last class with just Intro students. In June we start our All-Drama-Students rehearsal schedule. So, now is the time to make sure all lines, music, cues, blocking, and choreography are fully memorized.
Please note that the Academy is closed for Memorial day, but we will have an optional drama rehearsal on that day. Please join us if you don't have family plans.
And one more thing: all drama students are welcome to attend Michelle's vocal class from 6-7pm on Mondays, directly following Intro. It's an extra, free class to work on songs. It's a lot of fun and a good opportunity for younger students to get to know students in higher level classes before we're all thrust together for All-Drama-Students rehearsals.
Okay, that's it. For now.
