What worked?

Today we started working in the music booth, this helped us get more of an idea of how big a boat cabin would be- so we know how much space we'd have to make it seem more realistic.
Also we started using one of the sofas, this worked because when Maria gets pushed onto it, it makes us even closer which makes the awkwardness build up and it's easier for the audience to get that tension.
I think the gags in our piece work well as one of our characters are drunk; Beccy- (Michelle) also it adds some light hearted humour to a relatively serious piece

What do you need to do to improve it?

I think what we need to improve on is our projection. Even though working in the music booth is good for our special awareness, it doesn't help us with our projection because where it's so small we don't need to use our proper performance voice as it's so small, so we need to remember to speak louder.
I also think we need to improve on mine and Harry's little argument at the beginning, because it's too short and it doesn't really show what kind of relationship our characters have.
We desperately need to work on the big argument scene with me and Greta because it's too mess and all over the place.
We all need to stop talking over each other, because the audience can't hear what's going on and they also won't know who they're meant to be listening too.
Another thing we need to work on is Michelle's death and what happens after that.

How are we going to improve it?

To improve our projection we're going to practise in the classroom and in the music booth, by doing this we'll still know how big our space should be and we'll get used to using our performing voices.

To improve mine and Harry's argument scene we're going to think of how his character would react-(we all decided silly, then when he realises it's not working he'd then start trying to manipulate me), we also made it longer by doing this.

For our big argument scene between all of us we staged ourselves and then we decided what everyone would say at a certain part. We also changed the bit where Greta puts her leg over Harry- instead she was just pushed near Harry but at that point my character loses it and starts accusing her of putting her leg over him instead.

Once again when we would talk over each other we just decided what we'd all be saying so we weren't talking over each other.

When Michelle's character dies, Greta and I go over and start screaming for help just as the alarms start going off and while that's happening Harry's character is also screaming but only because of the alarms.
