Evaluation

In made in Dagenham, it took me while to get into character and have good characterisation. I think this was due to my lack of confidence of being Connie. She's an older woman and having to sing a solo was abit daunting. But after many rehearsals with my peers and mentors I sung my solo in front of everyone. Overall, the show went quite well for me, I knew my lines as both my characters, Connie and the teacher and I knew the movement well also. The only thing that really went wring for me was during the last show my dress broke during the Cortina dance and the back was open during the whole number. During that dance it was fun and really cheerful and I kept focused and in good character by constantly smiling and looking past and above the audience so I could stay focused. For Connie, it took me some time to get her characterisation right but I think it turned out quite well and my interaction with other characters was good as well. During my solo I was nervous during the first show but after performing it once I felt more confidence in myself.
