Mr Thompson's message: Put your scripts down!


Hi everyone, Make the most of this weekend to study your lines.
As from next week's rehearsal, there will be no scripts on stage.
(Somebody will be promting of course)
We also discussed a couple of weekend rehearsals at Reza's or Gloria's
new flats. Any sueggestions?

It's My Party Rehearsals

Rehearsal TIPS for IT'S MY PARTY
1: Know your lines by September (07!)

2: New information for the audience?
If so, speak your lines slowly, loudly and clearly.

3: Keep background party noise to a minimum.

4: Give your character something to do,
even when you're not centre stage.

CAN YOU ADD ANY MORE TIPS?
