Today we did a full run through of Act 2 and looked at the jumps/dives again to make sure they were perfected and looked good from the audiences point of view. It was a bit stop and start, because of lines or Rachel didn't like something or we didn't but it came together well. Rachel told us that when we all go to sit down or spread out, don't lose your character and have general chit chat, as it will look obvious and it won't look very good at all. Make sure it relevant to the play(what your talking about when you sit or stand with your groups).
When we run through Act 2 again, I tried to stay focused and in character. I made sure I didn't just talk about a load of rubbish, but I actually spoke about things that were happening in that scene at that moment. I stayed in character quite well, as I play a bit chavvy, and rebellious. I find it very easy to stay in character, if you know that character really well. It's just hard if people aren't concentrating very well, then its distracting and it distracts you and gets you out of the zone, so then you don't stay in character. This is why we all need to concentrate all the time and not randomly chit chat. I need to remember for next lesson to stay in character as much as I can, and stick with that character throughout the play.
