After the warm up we started running act 2 which was beneficial in letting us see where we are weak and where we need to work on. Using the backing tracks helped us to get the timing right and get used to putting speech in the middle. In Act 2 we had much more energy then act 1 which meant that it was more interesting to watch. However it was hard to get a feel for spacing as we were not on the stage. To improve on act 2 we need to look at it on stage and make sure that the timing is right in songs like 'meek shall inherit'.
Once we ran act 2 we moved on to running all musical numbers then moving on to seeing 'Now/ Its the gas' which was hard as Dan our choreographer had to make it up on the spot however everyone helped to give him ideas. Dan had the idea of us being as if we were a jack in the box as the music is dark and sinister. We also decided that we are all in the waiting room so we decided we should all be holding magazines through out the song and we should be staggered up to the dentist chair on either side. We wanted to make the dance as fun but sinister as possible. Which I think came across in the bouncing.
