Today I will let you in on what I do durning the show.
It is a crazy run this year. In short, I don't have anytime to sit down. Maybe a little at the top of act 2 but other then that...NONE!
Here is a break down of scene:
1.1
I am on SR Prom top left before ambush.
Durning ambush, I fight Simon Kenton and get my butt kicked... but Live!
This year I am in the touture scene!! I don't mess with the captive, but here is a spolier alert:
When you see me go behind the captive, I am handing off a blood bag.
After this scene, carry the captive off.
1.2
This is the Leanig Tree scene, not in this year. However I still have to run over to stage left to change, clean up, and get ready for 1.3.
1.3
I am not on the main stage! However it is so worth it, I get to walk a horse!:) I love me some Phoebe (name of the horse)
Look for me using the pond path twice durning this scene.
1.4
Again, even though I am not in this scene, I have so much to do!!
I have to change costumes - this is the log part - and I have to fix my makeup - this takes the longest. Usually I can get done before the music cue but sometimes I don't. The music starts signals for the end of 1.4
1.5
A nice easy scene in terms of movement.
I enter Stage Left in the tunnel carrying the Chief's stool.
This scene, I kneel behind the Chief and that is that. Of course I am in agreement with the Chief, but not for Tecusmeh leading.
Once the scene is over, we run off like mad men through the stage left tunnel for 1.6
1.6
Thankfully I don't have a costume change -that is saved for act 2. This scene I enter with an evil white man that we are trading off. I don't like him very much as you may see. He is getting traded for my brother in this scene.
When we left him go, I make sure he has it!:)
This scene is one of my favorites becuase there is this great tension, but also a nice peacfulness that is later destroyed at the end!
I can't give that away!:)
1.7
After being involved with a special moment in this show, we exit stage left again. This is the one time I have some time to relax...ish.
I have a small costume change and this head over to stage right to get ready for the best scene of this show!
1.8
This scene is crazy.
Here is the simple run down:
Enter stage Right cross to stage left
Exit stage right
Sprint (and I mean sprint) to stage left
Enter stage Left
Exit Stage Right
Sprint to stage Left
Enter Stage Left!:)
I love that moment! I guess I love being times and I have to be on stage at a certain point to be able to get my weapon and war paint on. Sometimes I cut it very close!;)
This scene is all about the plan and Tecumseh getting us all rallied up! This is where my favorite moment happens:
THE WAR DANCE!
This year you will see me with a spear. I am a head attacker this year. Tony and I get to "kill" the head stag!;) that is such a fun moment!!
At one point I am handed the Cermonial War Spear! I must say that I am thrilled to be holding this. Do some research ok regarding the importance of this war spear and you may see why I was thrilled to be holding it. It is basically a honor to hold this!
At the end of this dance we exit stage left again. At this point there will be a 15 minute intermission!
Break time? Nope! You will just have to wait to read about what happens at intermission through the rest of the show!;)
That concludes Act 1 blocking and break down that involves me. If you are seeing the show...hint hint.. This will be very valuable for you!:)
Have a great Thursday! Look for act 2 break down tomorrow morning!
