Aim: To run through everything with Theatre Production member Luke. To give him an idea of what is going on with the new version of the production; he worked on the previous production.
*warm up*
Working on the Units:
The cast shoot through several scenes briefly. Sam wants to brush up and touch up newly developed scenes.

The cast have built up on the back ground of the house being alive. It whispers Beast's thoughts and enhances the sinister surroundings e.g. when Beast puts Belle into her room in unit 7. The rest of the cast huddle and crowd Beast as he walks with Belle's sleeping body, acting as an extension of his conscience and his dark history. The corridor of whispering dead becomes animated with each scene. It has been incorporated into the first scenes when Belle is being visited by Beast. As the cast runs through each scene, Sam states lighting cues and tells Luke of any props required for the scene.
The whispering wall practices acting as a corridor that shows Belle the way to the red ribbon. The movements are laid down quickly and the wall continues to act as a dark backdrop to Belle and Beast's relationship.

The cast skip onto scene 10 when Belle and Beast share a slow and intimate dance. The background cast in the scene practice breaking from the whispering wall and dancing with the shadow of a loved one.
Development has been made on unit 11 when Belle makes her way to Father. The rest of the cast whisper around Belle as she makes her journey back to her Father. The group begin to brainstorm ideas of what they would say to Belle as she crawls home. Belle runs through the manic group as they cry out to her to with each of their own pleas e.g ' tell my mum I love her', 'run'..etc. The scene has developed more with the background cast.
*five minute break*
Super fast movements through all units so cast revise their individual journey in each unit. Here are a few photos from a few of the scenes practiced:
Unit 5- Father wakes in Beast's house. The furniture is made from previous victims.
Unit 7- Father returns home hoping Belle not to be in but weeps as she runs into his arms and greets him.
