Community focus group rehearsals so far...

The rehearsals so far are all a little crazy, working with the community focus group is very unpredictable but I like it! It keeps a sense of spontaneity, it's taught me to be patient and calm, also its allowed me an experience of understanding how open these lovely people are. As a class I feel we are pulling through and hopefully the show will be fantastic !!!
It is very important to allow the community focus group to feel important during rehearsals, which is why we as a class have had many sessions of devising what each members character is.
As we get to know the members each week we understand their strengths and weaknesses, it has been challenging in finding the right role for each individual.
Another important key to our rehearsals is the warm up at the start of each session, inclusive warm ups are vital, it allows us to connect as a group and learn more about the members and ourselves in reaction to the members.
