Blocking Day 1

First day of blocking - Act I.i I forgot how difficult it is to act honestly and truthfully while everyone is running around with scripts and pencils in hand - trying to remember where to move and when.

It was the first day I was disappointed in my work. I had done all my homework, was off-book, and literally had a voice lesson a few hours prior where we worked on the music. I just got very nervous and self conscious and reverted to my "safety" tricks - or what Mary calls - my "bullshit." Bad acting, poor pitchy singing (and of course busting into high soprano instead of chest voice), and wooden movements.

Oh well, what can you do. It's the first day of blocking - there is lots of room for improvement!:)
