This lesson, we first began setting the staging for the first scene 1 in 'Into the Woods'. As I am the narrator, I usually remain in the same location of the stage (Down-stage right a.k.a DSR). Narrator 2, Holly, stands opposite to me in Down-stage left a.k.a DSL, also facing DS. I've annotated this in my script, also highlighting my lines which are every other Narrator line. Before the opening line, the music starts in which me and Holly, who are facing US, turn around to DS. Further into this lesson, we practiced saying our lines accompanied with the 'Into the Woods' voice track, to see if we could keep in time with our characters speaking. I need to focus on maintaining an upright posture to reflect my character's sense of leadership of the whole production. By the end of this scene, we finish by performing our introductory song 'Into the Woods', where all characters on stage encourage the audience, whilst singing+/dancing, to make their way towards the exit path leading out to the next stage for scene 2 onwards, which will portray the 'woods'.
