Foreigner

EVERYONE	DICTION – SLOWER STEP ON LINES Don’t just say the lines – give the audience the meaning through your emotions. Look over lines Always be involved in what is happening. Don’t lose your character. The dialogue and emotions are one level: they should be varied. Watch who is sitting and standing or sitting on different levels. Adjust yourself. Quiet backstage. Hayden is the only one with energy. Everyone needs to be at his level. What is going on when the KKK runs away? LOUDER QUIET BACKSTAGE If you are supposed to be scared, be scared. LEVELS Look interested in who is speaking.  Focus on them. Energy level is down. Stay in character. During the furniture move, speak – be anxious. You are trying to keep the KKK out. LISTEN TO MAC while he is getting sent off.  Some be amused, some are mad at him. REACT TO EXPLOSION. Intermission – On page 21. After Charlie says, “Frankenstein, yes…” Keys – Amber Everyone’s entrances – they should be wet – except for Lindsey and Avery.  I WANT WATER!!!! Rifle bags – Cody and Nelsons Wheelbarrow - Hannah
