Everyone	As much energy at the end of the scene as at the beginning of the scene. Welfare scene – be sad, tired, hungry, cold, etc. That’s all for today – Don’t react the same way. SNOW Bar scene – don’t lose energy WORK ON ACCENTS- If teachers will let you, do them in class.  BUT DO THEM BETWEEN PERIODS AND BREAKS 2nd bar scene – don’t crowd behind bar and table. Make sure that you are fearful or disdainful of Michelle in voting scene. Workers have finally spoken – should be HUGE    REACT Losing accents halfway through show. Principles we believe in – react Train scene – work on it Thursday in class They can have their union – different reactions and BIGGER Slow mo in back striking – MOUTHE STRIKE – different slogans on signs. TOAST with GLASSES not fingers  We have glasses. Voting results – LOUD, then soft, look at Cody and Graham and speak differently – in hushed tones.  Tucker, Mac and Paige were not paying attention. WE NEED STRIKERS LEFT STAGE AND MORE THAN JUST JARED AND CODY. AT THE BEGINNING, WE NEED MEN WORKING IN THE BACK. Train scene- move only on the beat. CANNOT MOVE DURING THE FREEZE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STRAIGHT LINES Look HOT When it is hot Do not play with hair or costumes. Quiet in voting scene when Hilton and Kelly are talking. Talk over the rain.  IT IS COLD
Tucker	Work on slag line Dropped cig – pick it back up and put it in your pocket after you have made sure it is not lit. Don’t push the baby – you moved it to her left side. She looked like she had a tumor. Draw hand back harder to threaten Rose. Tucker – don’t keep your head down.  Wince, people noises Let the women take care of you.
Paige	LOWER VOICE   in welfare and WHOA!!!! Should be jubilant. Say Rose when comforting her.
Hannah	APRON!
Cody and Sav	Where’s the love?
Michelle	Can’t hear you.
Michelle and Carson	Change your scene up.   We need adding machine tape
Savannah & Allison	Good on Monologues, but be bigger!
Mac	Hit the metal after the Frank, Kelly and Hilton scene. Climb higher on the ladder.
Hannah and Graham	Look out toward audience and talk to Graham. Got to get Billy off – shake off water on your bodies. Hannah louder
allison	Nate – you look awful
MEN	Caps are making shadows on your face Suntan – need people noise Straight line when talking to Hilton second time – bring your tools.
Nathan	Socks?
Marie & Louis	Yours and Louis scene is in winter – you need a jacket or the shawl. Louis – get your coat.
Cody	Stress DAGOS & spit React to Savannah the way an Italian would Good job coughing. During the “action” scene,  you were blocked. More neck kissing
Allison	Lost your accent in welfare scene You turned weird when yelling at Nate.
Carson	Call security – faster and meaner We need to stress the coat you wear in welfare scene.
Lights and Billy	Turn lights off rose and Paige after Tucker pushes her. Billy will have to move to be in Alice and Reg’s light.
Graham and Ty	More DCS
Billy	Shake Mac’s hand after he carries in Marie’s box. Be more into the scenes as the watcher. Lean in. sit in a chair backwards, etc. Paint us a picture when you say Glory Days – memorable Don’t walk in front of Nate’s first line. Be nervous in welfare scene. Losing your accent a lot. Bring more emotions into your lines.
Graham	Good job not moving feet. Now make sure that you move your hands above the waist.  Keep your head up even in the serious scenes.
Alyssa	Barrel has to go off in train scene during the blackout or it counts as a light.
To Do	FIX the train music Adding machine tape
