songs for singing
EVITA - You must love me would be a good idea for a song
Where do we go from here?
This isn't where we intended to be
We had it all, you believed in me
I believed in you
Certainties disappear
What do we do for our dream to survive?
How do we keep all our passions alive,
As we used to do?
[Bridge:]
Deep in my heart I'm concealing
Things that I'm longing to say
Scared to confess what I'm feeling
Frightened you'll slip away
[Chorus:]
You must love me
You must love me
Why are you at my side?
How can I be any use to you now?
Give me a chance and I'll let you see how
Nothing has changed
[bridge]
[chorus]
chicago a duet with grace
Cassandra:
Come on babe
Why don't we paint the town?
And all that Jazz
I'm gonna rouge my knees
And roll my stockings down
And all that jazz
Start the car
I know a whoopee spot
Where the gin is cold
But the piano's hot
It's just a noisy hall
Where there's a nightly brawl
And all
That
Jazz
NYADA Dance Students:
Skidoo!
Cassandra:
And all that Jazz
NYADA Dance Students:
Hotcha! Whoopee!
Cassandra:
And all that jazz
NYADA Dance Students:
Ha!
Ha!
Ha!
Rachel:
Slick your hair
And wear your buckle shoes
And all that Jazz
I hear that Father Dip
Is gonna blow the blues
And all that Jazz
Hold on, hon
We're gonna bunny hug
I bought some aspirin
Down at United Drug
In case you shake apart
And want a brand new start
To do that
... Jazz
Cassandra:
Find a flask
We're playing fast and loose
And all that jazz
Rachel:
Right up here
Is where I store the juice
And all that jazz
Cassandra:
Come on, babe
We're gonna brush the sky
I bet you luck Lindy
Never flew so high
'Cause in the stratosphere
How could he lend an ear
to all that Jazz?
Rachel:
Oh, you're gonna see your sheba shimmy shake
Rachel with NYADA Dance Students:
And all that jazz
Cassandra:
Oh, she's gonna shimmy 'till her garters break
Cassandra with NYADA Dance Students:
And all that jazz
Rachel:
Show her where to park her girdle
Oh, her mother's blood'd curdle
NYADA Dance Students:
If she'd hear her baby's queer
Cassandra:
For all
Rachel:
that
Rachel and Cassandra:
Jazz
All that Jazz
Cassandra with NYADA Dance Students:
Come on, babe
Why Don't we paint
The town?
And all that Jazz (NYADA Dance Students: And all that Jazz)
Rachel with NYADA Dance Students:
I'm gonna
Rouge my knees
And roll my
Stockings down
And all that jazz (NYADA Dance Students: And all that Jazz)
Cassandra with NYADA Dance Students:
Start the car
I know a whoopee spot
Where the gin is cold
But the piano's hot
Rachel with NYADA Dance Students:
It's just a noisy hall
Where there's a nightly brawl
Rachel:
And all that
NYADA Dance Students:
Jazz
Cassandra:
No, I'm no one's wife
Rachel:
But, Oh, I love my life
Rachel and Cassandra:
And all that Jazz!
Rachel and Cassandra with NYADA Dance Students:
That Jazz!

singing combination
today i worked on my jaw tension i tried differnt ithings i feel the humming worked really well i think i should include this permanty in my warm upi also helps me out different sounds from different parts of mouth shape.
singing warm up
start with my stance i relax my shoulders i personaly find it easier to sing if im moving or walking i feel more relaxed than standing still. i also think this is good training for when on stage. i then move on to my breathing techniques in inhale for 4 and exale then increase the counts as i progress.
i thenmove on to toungue twisters dragons drinking dragon drinks. i then do a normal scale to warm up then move on to a slippering scale like scream. i then do my vowles v a r u also in scale with alpedjios
today i cncentrated mainly on stance as when i get nervous i freese up i have also been doing my warm ups in front of my parents somthing i would never do before this is a huge step i have never sung infront of them before

stimulus
we originally had the story of ............. however we decided to modernise and simplifie our story.
original story
the original story was about a prince who finds a feather and the king and queen his step mum want him to find the feather the boy goes on a quest with a fox who can change in to a boat an d changes in to the princess he falls in love with along the way he has to do different jobs to get the bird wich belongs to the feather.
for tie we diecided to change it to a boy who moves into a new town with his new step mum and dad she spots the feather and wants him to prove he can live by her rules he goes to find the bird ans comes across his mothers friend who hymnotises him however the step mum find that her friend has gone to far and trys to stop it the play ends with the boy waking up and the whole thing being a dream but the audience is left with the question was it a dream or real the stimulus sets well as it gives a message to children that respectign ur elders and living by the rukes is better than not

TIE research
TIE which stands for theater in education are organisations that help schools opertunity to social grow and a chance to perform they do this by relating there workshops and performances to lessons and adding criteria from the curriculum our TIE performance teaches them that you should never give up and that working hard makes a difference to getting what u want also that manners are easy to come by . we have also used techniques from Brecht and this will help them when devising there own theater pieces.
Tie was formed in 1965 by actor Roger Chapman at the Belgrade Theater Coventry.It was one of the first Theaters to be built after the 2nd world war.
Many TIE groups visit schools or youth centers to either make awareness like fire safety or similar as they go to teach specific skills like improvisation ,public speaking,confidence and social skills. our TIE performance teaches them that you should never give up and that working hard makes a difference to getting what u want also that manners are easy to come by . we have also used techniques from Brecht and this will help them when devising there own theater pieces. we also used a visual stimulus in the form of a picture with a political feature from this they have to create freeze frames and a short impro piece about what happening in the photo. i think that tie is great and that drama should be used more in everyday lesson like English for kids who have a disability or dyslexia as its shown visual involvement can be a better way of learning.
From the research i have done by looking at different schools and youth centers i think it would be best to mainly focus on schools like Davidson school and Portslade community college as they both like the arts and i think they would benefit from us coming in and help with there gcses and give them a better understanding of what our college has to offer.
also i see from TIE experiences in the past that it would be good for us to also receive feedback about our performances. and i think using the suitcase in our performance will work well with both school curriculum as this is what they are getting ready to use i know for a fact that pcc has a brilliant lighting and staging facility perfect for what we need to do and so does Davidson also i think having been given the chance to adapt our story lines and given the chance to modernize will help us hook the younger teen audiences. with the blend of fairy tale and panto making it light hearted we will not only be able to teach them skills we will also be able to show a message to our class. other people in my class are using physical theater so this would be really fun to teach them like frantic assembly specially after doing research they have a new show out. this would be very fun relevant to theater now a days this is typical of something involving t TIE.
maybe we could teach them a short part of our pieces and get them to adapt a ending to it.
overall i think TIE should be used more in the curriculum and and the arts should be equally balanced with other subjects like maths science and English as not all people are academic.
