Blocking Notes from Full Run (Nov. 15)



In general, remember that there is no hiding when the audience is raised above you. If you end up in the wrong place, evaluate if it is essential that you move, and move with purpose.



Hey Ho
Set up the very first snap forward  (look around a little more just before that happens)

Family solo verse – Men, you started a bar too early




Mountain Nights
Xara, move to your three lines on the line “Pretty children they all were”

Your first movement will now begin on the Alto entry at the bottom of the first page.

Claire will review the video and provide feedback re: timing of certain moments of blocking



I See You
Xara exit during the piano ending, split centre and leave before the piece ends.



After Blow Blow
Large pause for the bear team to exit before Jennette begins narration



Tabula Rasa
Cue to enter is “You must have been so lonely”



Boadicea
Make sure you move to Forest B when Xara starts to sing again

In general, try to keep facing forward during the transitions between forests. Claire will review and make a decision if a change needs to be made.



Wind Soundscape
Review :
-       opening cues
-       south wind
-       aFRAID
-       traveling soundscape with decrescendo & west wind section



Ariana’s Lament
-       big pause (with Jenny filling with music) for wings to be set down and Xara to re-enter
-       narration starts at the same time as Ariana’s Lament




Scene 5 – The Queen’s Castle
When you are in the cross formation, the cue to drop arms for EVERYONE is now “As she approached the door, it blew open




After “The Sky and the Dawn and the Sun”
There will be a transition scene with the little family – the XYE sisters, and the brothers. This is to leave time for Xara to do their costume change. 



Jul Jul
Enter when XYE sings “darkness and shadow”
