In this rehearsal, we continued rehearsing scene by scene thoroughly, with Grainne briefly pausing us to give tips on how we can improve our performances. This included our voice techniques and body language in order to distinguish our character's purpose/disposition. We also started discussing props and costume ideas that we could start bringing into rehearsals later on, as it will help create a more 'Into the Woods' atmosphere.
I need to continue working on projection as we won't always have microphones to support the volume of our voice. I find I project better the more emotionally connected to the play I am, such as when I explain about Cinderella's mother's grave, it is such a sympathetic moment that my responsibility is to engage the audience in feeling the same way, thus speaking loudly and clearly to gain the attention needed.
