8th December

Today we rehearsed in the dance studio for tonight's and tomorrow's showcase so we felt prepared for the performances, meaning we practised Big Spender and Rhythm of Life, an improvement for Big Spender was to sing louder as we were all confident in the movements for Big Spender, for Rhythm of Life we also need to be louder. In this rehearsal we figured out how to get the ballet barres and chairs onstage for Big Spender, we did this by carrying the barres from the side of the audience and the chairs were pulled on from the wings as they could fit backstage.

3rd December

This was our dress rehearsal, we started with Big Spender where I found that my costume and a few other people's did not fit in with the general theme of the costumes. Afterwards we rehearsed Rhythm of Life in costume, both these rehearsals were in preparation for the winter showcase which was taking place the following Monday and Tuesday, we performed in it to advertise the production that we are creating. The thing that we need to work on as a group is to use facial expressions throughout the dances.

We tried on costumes for Rhythm of Life as well as rehearsing the bigger scenes, none of the costumes I tried on fit therefore I bought one similair to the style of the costumes we tried.

We rehearsed both the dance and song for Big Spender at the same time as we hadn't rehearsed them together before with just a piano for accompaniment. We also rehearsed the Rhythm of Life song and who was doing which part. Finally we finished Rich Man's Frug off but we haven't done the dance breaks within the scene yet.
