Rivals Performance Review

Kelsey and Nicole

Kelsey had a great and comfortable use of stage and props, that really aided in the understanding of the scene and relationship. Nicole was hilarious and committed to her choices as the wild Lydia; her use of fanning herself was very successful.
Emily and Kristen

Emily communicated her relationship with Kristen very clearly and her use of language strengthened the scene. Kristen was a very avid listener and had a good scene of staying present in the moment, especially when defending her relationship with Faulkland.

Evan and Brandon

Evan had a nice and casual way of communicating the text, where it didn't seem like it was of another period; which was super interesting! Brandon was a domineering force, however i would've liked to have seen him use the space more and communicate the relationship through more movement.

Max and Allison

Max was great at allowing the entire character to show through his vocal and physical life, while also driving the scene with dynamic energy. Alison was great at showing the subtext of her character's intentions and she was able to inform the audience in a clever and sneaky way that aided in her character development.

Ron and Octavio

Ron had a strong and specific physical life, which helped him give his character's lines more definition. Octavio had a very fun and excitable energy in this scene and he genuinely seemed to enjoy what he was doing.

Will and Amanda

Will was very committed and it seemed that he was able to maneuver the scene very well, while maintaining a specific relationship with Amanda. Amanda connected and communicated with Will very well and the scene had a nice arch and flow to it.

Miles and Toby

Miles and Toby had the best connection and a very clear relationship. They were able to have such dynamic levels to their scene, especially when Acres discovered he was actually in danger.
