February 28, 2012

Lecturer: Jamie Roberts
Lesson: One

We started by briefly recapping Alibaba, polishing in some places. I found this tiring, but enjoyable as we really needed to practice it and it helped me work out exactly where I should be all the time.

We then did some mask work, in preparation for Es-sindibad.
We were each given a mask and were told to walk in neutral, turning together and looking towards the audience. Then do it again, but this time acting as the mask's character, and again acting the complete opposite.

At first, I found it enjoyable and easy, walking in neutral and sensing when the group would turn. But then, when we had to walk and act like the character of the mask, I found it very difficult. I couldn't keep time with the group any more, and I couldn't show an emotion properly without showing my face.

I think that was my weakness.
My strength was walking with the group by myself and sensing when to turn without any guidance.
