What I have learned during the rehearsal process is; to have patience while others our involved in their scene, to either concentrate, listen to my fellow co-actors and, I might learn something about my own performance while observing them. Or to run my lines in my head so they our fresh and clear in my mind.

When I get a direction e.g. be nervous, then told for the same bit of that scene, be firm and go on the offensive. Is not to get rid of my last note but to create a layer and build on each one. This is really hard to find the balance but hopefully for the audience will benefit.

I’ve learned to remember my cue to begin my line and my cue for others.
For if I fail or someone else fails to come in with their cue it holds the play and it becomes awkward on stage.

Something that is very hard is to maintain energy while sitting down for long periods. It’s not just for the play it’s the constant going over things that draw it out longer and make it more arduous, but I do understand why we go over them.
