Wonderful Monday night!

Thank you to everyone who brought their A-game to rehearsal last night! We got a lot accomplished and can't wait to fit the pieces together to make the ULTIMATE fight scene on the Jolly Roger! It's going to be great!

A few things to keep in mind for stage combat:

• Make the movements as tight as possible to make it look realistic and to avoid using too much space (since our stage is pretty small!) 
• Keep arms straight, move sharply & quickly 
• Make sure you're keeping rhythm in your movement
• Be careful with the weapons!
• Once you get used to the movement, it is important to add your acting to the fight ... Lost Boys should be angry when they fight, and the pirates can always be goofy... and a little angry, too!

A note for Starkey & Tootles: check out this video ... around :12 is where I pulled the lunge movement from. Watch this & we'll practice again!

Thanks! See you soon!
