Talent that pierces the Heavens!

This week was the climax of our last three weeks, Bloody MIST.

We weren't ready for preforming Friday, due to the vacation, and the deadline had been moved backed to Wednesday. This was the absolute last day we could move it back. Come Tuesday, we were ready to conduct our play but instead use this time as a dress rehearsal. We cut it down a little and timed it, still over fifteen minutes but half an hour is better than forty minutes. The lesson didn't bring much progress but it really reinforced our recent progress.

Then BOOM!!! It was the day of our performance. I was a little nervous but was well aware that the style of our piece is incredibly mistake-friendly. The randomness of the piece allows for variation, no matter how intentional. However, there was an unforeseen flaw. A road was closed and thus my bus was rerouted, meaning that I missed it. By the time that I was back at my home I was half an hour late. Fortunately, its only fifteen minutes to the school from my house. I arrived just before they called off the performance. After quickly getting Make-Up (still a slight tinge of regret), we started. This brought to light a few flaws in our practise method, for one the lack of an audience. While we claimed to break the Forth Wall, we didn't practise its application. This was very clear in the feedback we were given, but it was incredible that we were able to draw a Thirty Minute piece out of "playing around".

This was by far the best part. The performance climaxes with the four of us singing Bohemian Rhapsody with all the energy we have left. It really fun but at the same time it was far more tiring than any other part of the performance. I think this part most felt like it was from Bloody Mess, the same amount of investment. Being able to exaggerate every part of the song is AMAZING though, its like a rock concert in both energy and movement.

Friday fit very nicely with the theme of Contradictions. We read off our Pitches for Bloody Mist, mine was very eloquent, and I am proud of that . Than we discussed the Talent show for a bit than started to consider what we would put on the now empty bulletin board. It was basically a prelude for what was to come.
