MT Y1 Showcase

14/05/15






Today we performed our musical in the theatre.
The setlist included songs from Chicago, Miss Saigon, Wicked, Evita, Fame, Memphis, Legally Blonde, Les Mis, Bugsy Malone, Grease and Sister Act (sung with some of the second years).
I sang "I'd give my life for you" from Miss Saigon.
I think I did much better in one of the rehearsals we did before the show. My voice was really tired during the show and I noticed as soon as I began singing, I kept trying to bring it back and it sounded far too much like I was struggling. I didn't see myself act, I tried to remain focused and not to let anyone see how gutted I was but not sure if I did well or not.
I really wasn't happy with myself for most of the show, I think my ensemble parts went alright but I kept thinking about the solo and I couldn't get over it.
I was also really excited to dance "Tear Down The House" which was my favourite dance of the year, that I -for once- remembered and ended up falling on stage which ruined my night a bit more.
What I'll remember from this it not to push too much on my voice before a show, rest it as much as I can and also get over something that goes wrong. I've always been told to move on when something goes wrong but have never been able to do it yet.

Targets : take more opportunities to rehearse other than on my own, keep getting more conficent, be able to move on when something goes wrong
