Overall I felt the musical was a great success however I don't think I'd like to go through all the preparation again as it was far too much work.
I think initially we all had doubts about the differences between the two groups of dancers and actors .It was a little bit awkward at first but as time went on we all got along and are still all close now even after the event. I was also worried about learning lines and performing to an audience, although we still have to perform in dance you can cover up any bits you mess up or in extremities run off stage if something drastic happens. But with acting you have to know your lines inside out as if you forget yours it could affect someone Else's performance and you have to be on-stage for the whole of the set scene especially if you have a speaking part. This is something i felt I dealt with fairly well even though on the day I was filed with nerves.
I really enjoyed working with the actors as I felt they seemed to bring out the best in all of us and made us really get into character which is something i really struggled with throughout the whole process.
I think I managed to learn my lines fairly well - even though there weren't that many I still seemed to really struggle learning the song words too. throughout the rehearsals and the performance there is one line I can never get right in the first scene and no matter how many times i read over the script and tried to learn that one line I still couldn't get it right. However I managed to learn the majority of my lines before the performance so I was pleased with my self.
If I were to do the whole process again I would like to have been more into my character from an early stage. When watching it back I think I managed to get in to character well however in early rehearsals I was quite reluctant to perform at all due to nerves I think in front of my peers. I think like I said if we were to re do the whole process again I would of liked to work harder on my characterisation from an early stage.
All in all I thought the performance went really well and we worked well as a company to pull off a really great show, even after all the doubts we had.although the process was long and tiring for all involved I would definately love to do it again as I think it was a fantastic experience and something i will never forget.
