NEXT WEEK: ACT REVIEW & WORKSHOP (back at the Bossanova)
Bring everything you have:
- Music: on iPod/music player or email your MP3 tracks in advance to HollyDaiBurlesque@gmail.com
- Costume: whatever pieces you have... all of them, even if have more than one and you aren't sure which you might use
- Name/Persona: What's yer name? Who is this person? Be prepared to introduce yourself as your performer persona to the class.
Homework:
- Bring your name (or ideas for names) and 3 or more adjectives that describe the kind of performer you'd like to be
- Think about if you were in an elevator with someone and they asked "what do you do?", how would you describe your burlesque persona?
