The Flint Street Nativity - PART THREE

September 25th, Friday

Today we were working on the scene in Flint Street Nativity where we are acting as the parents. I acted as Gabriel's mum who is a bit chavvy and I think I got in to the role well. The parents are talking about how the nativity went and they are eating mince pies and things. As Gabriel's mum I had to talk with a common accent and act really young. Charlie's character was a single dad so I thought that my character would have a bit of a flirt with him so I did so whilst everyone had their own little chunks of conversation with each other. I felt that this lesson did not go well at all because there was a tension in the classroom that we all tried to dismiss but we couldn't seem to. As well as this the communication between us all was shocking and I feel this really impacted on our performance and I hope that we improve.
