Rehearsal

Ring, ring, ring…. Everyone in the room turned with a look of surprise and when I met the director's eyes I could foresee the lecture I was about to receive. I was in the middle of an after school rehearsal for our upcoming musical, and the number one rule in rehearsal was no cell phones. I blurted out a jumble of words about how sorry I was, and ran off stage to grab the phone and silence it. When I reached for it, my screen informed me that it was my mother calling. I certainly didn’t want two…

night for a week leading up to this moment, making awkward eye contact with the director after the song had ended, and I scurried back to my seat to watch the other auditions for Soundwave Glee Show Choir. A week later, I stepped into the first rehearsal. I was instantly greeted by a tall freckled girl a few years older than me and a curly-haired boy with a guitar: the first of many friends I would make…

found myself gradually gain experience and confidence in the speech class. Based on the previous speech experience and recommendation from the professor and classmates, this time I used more strategies from the 4-steps methods. I started my first rehearsal on the day before our outline was due. Because I really want to make sure the speech won’t…

about 20 seconds or less. However, the information can be maintained through rehearsal (pg. 176). Therefore, I would have Sam rehearse the improved swing every day at practice and games until he felt comfortable with it.

person and what I dream of and strive for. My parents signed me up to join VOENA when I was seven years old. Less than thrilled, I had not realized I would rehearse once a week during the time I normally spent designing Lego utopias at daycare. At rehearsal, however, it was a different story. I learned how to harmonize and perform with my whole body, growing more confident and comfortable with myself in the process. I learned songs in Swahili, Galic, Japanese, Farsi, and Swedish to name a few,…

my journey and that I had a lot of hardwork left. I immediately began practicing and had the solos down, except none of the reeds I was making were good enough. Then, the last week before the intensive rehearsals and concert, I managed to make 3 good reeds. About half way through my first rehearsal my first solo came up and I played it quite well.
