Today was the first day of assessments.
Those of us who weren’t performing our pieces today watched everyone
else perform.
Tuesday 7th October 2014
Today was the day we had for our final rehearsal, and Jerome
and I did as much fine tuning as we could in order to feel prepared for our
performance the next day.
Wednesday 8th October 2014
Today the half of our group who didn’t perform on
Monday had their assessments. This included Jerome and I, it was finally time
for us to perform our scene from Medea.
All of our hard work over the last few weeks had been
building up to this moment, and it was quite nerve-wracking!
Our performance went well. I felt like it was very
successful, we both put in 100% and just went for it. It was terrifying but
exhilarating, the audience were great and receptive, and I felt the piece
worked well when we finally got to performing it in that space to all those
people.
And although we of course had to keep in mind to
do our best because this was the one performance of our piece that really
mattered, I just wanted to enjoy it, and I did.
I had a fantastic
time working with Jerome, and although I was nervous and hoping to do well for
our assessment, I felt a complete thrill and even a little sadness knowing that
this was the last time we would do our scene.
So much work, research, practice, rehearsal, weeks and weeks
of and perfecting and going over tiny details to improve our piece had really
paid off. I felt a total rush of happiness, relief and accomplishment when we
got off that stage, having finished our assignment.
