Chicago- Lesson 9

Chicago- Lesson 9

In today’s lesson, we worked on the second half of the musical. I am barely in the second half which meant I had time to run through the other pieces I was in in the first half of the musical. In the second half I am a reporter and this scene happens before the song “Roxie”. I had missed the lesson where they had blocked this which meant that I did not know where I was standing and where I had to move places to. Also, I still need to learn my line properly for this section as I keep forgetting it even though it is really simple. After this small scene, I am a boy in the song “Roxie”. This song has not been set yet which meant we did not know what we were doing.

When I had some spare time in this lesson, I looked over my lines to make sure I had learnt them completely. I was finding it difficult to learn my monologue which is in “Cell Block Tango”. This monologue was longer than the one I had auditioned for which through me off completely as I could remember that one. There was one line which I kept forgetting which then made me forget the rest. I was also struggling with the American accent, I have never liked doing accents and I could not get it right and I felt embarrassed doing it. This is something that I need to keep working on.
