It was our last day of rehearsals, before we showed the two people who were en charge on the competition. We had to make sure we worked really hard and concentrated. We first went through a complete run-through of Act 1, 2 and 3. It didn't go very well, because people kept missing their cues and lines. We figured that the worst run through act we did, was act 2. So without any pauses we ran through act 2 once more, to make sure we knew it and helped each other with the cue lines, making sure they know them. A lot of people accidentally cut some of peoples lines too, so we went over those cues with the people we needed too. After a run through of Act 2 we felt a little more confident about performing tomorrow.
Rachel then spoke to me, Charlotte, Lauren and Amber about singing the song 'clown' by Emeli Sandi. Rachel has mentioned it on numerous occasions, but no one has actually done anything about it. Rachel sent us a video yesterday of the song on youtube, but with a ukelele. As Ben can play the ukelele, he was happy to try to play it whilst we sung. We all came together to give it a quick go and it worked quite well. We then added harmonies in. I did the melody with Lauren and Amber and Charlotte did the harmony and went higher. It went really well, considering we've only just tried it and put it together today.
This is the video Rachel showed us:

It's a good slow cover and we think it's good to start off Act 3 with it. Then everything gets really mental, so it will build the tension up.
