I have been explained how important to own the step by the choreographer on the other day,as our premier of our new production is only three weeks away.
Not just repeatedly practice the steps, the choreographer try to explain us how necessary to understand the meaning of steps and digest and own them. Also, the choreographer warned us that, it does not mean dancers have a right to change the the shape or the choreograph.
I roughly got what she was trying to us dancers or I thought I did understand what the person was trying to tell us at the time.
However, things suddenly clicked when I was watching a tv programme on the other night.
They have a writer and actors lines would be given to them before the show to rehearse. However, they read the lines just so realistically, looked like almost lines are coming through their mind; looks like that is how they are actually feeling.
Then, I have noticed what the choreographer wanted to tell us; own the steps.
These actors truely own their lines. Like us dancers should own the choreography.
we have three more weeks till premier I hope I can really understand the character and relate the choreograph to understand the meaning of it. Other wise, public won't.
