Double Performing Arts Lesson (15th February)

In today's lesson after our physical and character warm ups we began working on out new scene that we planned in our last lesson. Our scene began with James (Zanni) picking up a bottle he found thinking it was hair gel, however it turned out to be super glue. He spotted Rhiannon (Colombina) and started rubbing the gel through his hair in an attempt to impress her, however he found his hands got stuck to his head.
We decided to have a comedic phrase where Colombina turns away from Zanni and he begins struggling yanking his hands trying to un-stick them from his head, however every time Colombina turned to look at him, he would be flexing or doing sit up, as if he was working out.
Eventually Colombina spots the pot of glue and realises what Zanni has done, therefore she goes over to help him and in the process gets her hand stuck to Zanni's head.
At this point in the scene, the Doctor is introduced. He begins to go on about the chemicals in the glue and why it sticks until Colombina interrupts him and asks him to help her get un-stuck, by doing this the doctor helps Colombina but gets himself stuck to her. Then Zanni decides to grab hold of Colombian's leg (in order to thank her for helping him).
After this comes the introduction of The Captain (me). The Captain enters to The Doctor bending Colombiana over trying to pull his hand off her shoulder.
However this was meant to be perceived as a more funny/sexual act, therefore The Captain reacts to this act by challenging The Doctor to a duel.

This was the furthest we had done through the scene so far. During this lesson we went back over this scene to see what we could add. We began by refreshing everyone's minds on the scene to see what we could add. We decided we wanted to add more comedy into the scene at the introduction to The Doctor therefore we decided to have him going off on a rant about glue and what chemicals are in the glue (why they are stuck) before he is stopped by Colombina and brought back to the subject of the script.
We also added more pause between The Captain's entrance and the realisation of Colombina, The Captain and Zanni to make it more hysterical for the audience.
