There were two performances, the first for me was in my opinion was a better overall performance, I think that the nerves were in the right place and the energy was high but controlled within the right focus.The 'Grid' at the start was very much enjoyable and I totally through myself into it, I lost all fears and immersed myself fully, laughing, crying, screaming, all these emotions truly took place within the space and my space too... I feel that Liza and I connected during this time on stage which was inspiring. There was also a great energy between all the actors on stage, the downfall was that unfortunately some of the group members were missing due to illnesses, however we pulled through. It seemed like it went by so fast, which means that I was totally in the zone and focused.
The second performance was a little more difficult, more people were missing for the second night which gave a kind of, lets get this over with kind of feeling. Rather than fully enjoying an immersing myself into the show, I found myself thinking of what I was doing rather than just doing and being in the moment. There was also a couple of stage direction changes and an extra scene put in about an hour before the show, which in a way without realising threw me a little. In this case, a distraction on my acting which I let get hold of me. However the show was finally over and I do believe that I was totally committed for the first night. On reflection, I think it would be beneficial to find sometime alone to build an energy for myself to help my focus.
