Changing Section 4
During the rehearsal, we noticed that during Section 4 there was a segment where the cast stood up when their letter was addressed but I realised that that was defeating the object of the piece and going against the authors intention as the audience weren't supposed to have any sort of connection with the people onstage, hence the letter. So if we were to reveal who was which letter then that would give the audience to chance to make a connection between who the line was talking about and therefore make assumptions about the kind of person that they might be.
We have a short rehearsal video from what we were working on and the main thing that we were focussing on was our sychronised movements and getting them perfectly on time as for the majority of the play, the cast remain quite still with no movements at all so we need to make the movements that we do clean and slick so that the impact is greater.

Because we have movements that happen between a few people and then movements that involve the whole cast both need to be as effective as possible as they are all adding to the authors intention and presenting the play as it should be. We are performing the play as much to the original as possible as we were intrigued by the idea of it being more of a social experience than an actual play with characters and we wanted to see how our audience would react especially with the parents of the people who are on stage in the audience, as they actually know the students onstage.
