TO ALL MY THESPIANS...

GREETINGS!

I am sure by now you miss me so much already and you just can't wait to start school and be with me in class again...I feel the same way!

Anyways...as I mentioned, you have until tomorrow evening, Saturday, 25 October 2008, to complete and respond to this blog. Answer it as honestly and as completely as possible.

"How did you spend your October Break and what instance in your vacation could you attribute or relate to our class? Think carefully and explain well please. Remember that this is a first-come-first-serve basis again...so before you post, check other postings first so you will not end up duplicating anything."

That's All Folks! Enjoy whatever is left of your holiday and do not miss me much...we'll be seeing each other in three days time---WOW! ---October Break is over...! Take care and be safe...CIAO!!!

TO ALL MY THESPIANS

GREETINGS!

I have a number of QUARTER BREAK HOMEWORK/ASSIGNMENTS for you to work on given the 9 days you are going to "miss" seeing me and/or “miss” being in my class.

FIRST…you have the entire Quarter Break to continuously read, understand, and finish Chapter 2 of our text, Pantomime and Mime, pages 24-59…in case you have not done so yet. Take notes while you read so that you will not forget and waste your time…!

SECOND…make sure to continuously practice the suggested Exercises on Relaxation, Posture, Walking, Crossing, Turning, and Falling. Do not be lazy in doing it…as soon as we get back from the break, I would have expected you to know them all…I will call on you individually and give you the exercise type and you should be able to execute it properly without asking what it is…!

THIRD…do the following Exercises on Gesture, page 36 and Characterization, page 41. I will be giving you this as a test upon our return…you have nine days to work on the facial expressions and everything else involved in it to be able to execute the situations properly…!

FOURTHfind possible plays from the internet that we can perform in case Animal Farm will not be doable for our major production. Make sure to check whether we will have to pay royalty in using those plays. In case it is free, download and print out the script. Each of you should have at least one play to present to the group when we return…!

LASTLY… on Friday, 24 October 2008, I am going to post a blog for you to respond to. You will have the whole day of Friday and the whole day of Saturday, 25 October 2008, to post your responses. I am going to close that blog on the evening of Saturday between 7:00PM to 11:59PM…!

That’s All Folks! Have a Safe and Wonderful Quarter Break and come back refreshed and ready to Rock-N-Roll for the second part of the semester. Be good and get all your homework/assignments out of the way as soon as possible so that you can enjoy your break to the max…CIAO!!!
