FYI - I have numbered the measures for ease of identifying when choreography happens. I recommend you do the same ;-)
Mm 1 - Martirio & Amelia team enter and meet in the centre, downstage
Mm 6 - Magdalena team stands, Martirio & Amelia teams turn to look. Adela team moves to the chairs that are upstage in the Gallery
Mm 11-12 - Adela enters, and her team joins her. Everyone else turns to look at Adela in her green dress.
Mm 12 - 17 Individual action in sister teams
After Mm 17, there is a break for text
After text, come back in with singing at Mm 18.
I've also added a new Video for Kyrie because there were so many people missing the first time I recorded it. I've left the other video active as well.
I've created a Bernarda Alba playlist with all of the choreographed pieces in order. You can find it here
