Got my marks for Ruby Moon

So I got my marks for Ruby Moon and I guess they're not bad. I got 8/10, 8/10, and 7/10. So altogether I got 23/30 giving me a percentage of 77%. Not too bad - it actually could have been worse, but I need to work a lot harder. Acting is definitely not my forte. I prefer to analyse and block performances - like a director. But as my teacher said, I need to 'stretch' myself further than I do. I got my results back for my essay on Ruby Moon and A Beautiful Life - I got 70%. Also not too bad - I am awful at essays! So yeh, overall I'm pretty happy, but I need to improvie a lot if I want to get an ATAR 85...

STRETCH


COMFORT

My teacher also said,

"Acting is REACTING!"

Australian Drama & Theatre - Contemporary Australian Theatre Practice

Ruby Moon

For my FIRST drama assessment for yr 12 is to perform a scene from one of the plays we've been studying and then writing an essay about it. The assessment is due this Friday, and I'm nowhere near finished - EEK! I am really worried about it, but I'm also really pumped. It's fun and exciting to play a crazy old spinster - Dulcie Doiley (from Matt Cameron's Ruby Moon). The main thing I'm panicing about is the essay. I am not at all good at writing essays. To get anything from me, that makes sense, takes a lot of effort and squeezing from pressure. And of course, as usual, I've left it till the last week to do it. Oh dear... But I have been thinking about my approach to it, and I've asked my tacher for their opinion on my introduction. But there is still a lot of work to do. Not to mention the work I will be putting into staging our performance. But hey! I guess that's yr 12 for you...
