Learning WWRY lines and Characterisation.

I have learnt all my lines for WWRY and am now off script. I have found learning my lines rather difficult as I have a bad memory but I have found new ways to how I learn things and remembering lines and cues. I have also been finding it hard to stay in my american accent as I keep going into my English fluent accent too. To improve this I am going to keep going over my lines and performing them, also look on youtube and the We Will Rock You Musical at Killer Queens Scene to see how she pronounces her words.

I have looked at this performance by Ashley J Russell of her take of Killer Queen. I have take inspiration and have been influenced by her confidence and character in this performance. She is confident with her vocals, and you can see in her movements that she is a very big character too, as she opens her arms wide a lot of the time. I will use this in my performance as I perform my character. I will remember that my character is a big massive personality, so I have to show this is my movements across the stage.

 I really very happy that I have got my lines out of the way as this means I can focus on other issues that I have in this role, such as my confidence with singing.
I am still finding my confidence with my songs, as I have had the chance to perform them yet. I am still working on them on my own, and finding the balance between chest and head voice, and also staying in character at the same time.
I am feeling confident with Killer Queen song, although I haven't performed it. I have been working on this song with my singing teacher, and he has given me vocal exercises that help me project my voice. We have also moved into a larger space for me to perform the songs, so that I get used to singing in a larger studio.
My targets are to increase my confidence in singing. I can do this by practising my songs and keep practising them, also I will  practise in the studio with the class watching me so that I can become more confident.
