It states what this character is like, their quotes, their relationships with other characters and how I will portray that to the audience.

In the first rehearsal, we were very shy and not projecting our voices or not singing at all so this was a big improvement for us. Furthermore, our energy levels were much higher this time as everyone was bouncing around even during transitional movements and we all looked less bored and concentrated. However, the new section was very messy and out of time so in the next rehearsal we need to go over t...

To do this, I will set targets for myself for the next rehearsal. These targets include: co...
