Evaluation of my performance

Last week was the production of 'Walt'. I am now going to evaluate my performance and how I think the shows went.

I think that when performing 'Walt', my performance was of a high standard. I feel like I challenged myself to act, sing and dance in front of people that I have never spoke to before; I believe that I coped with this well. I thought that another strength of mine when performing was acting in a scene that involved me miming and showing emotion just through my face and not being able to talk. This was a challenge for me because I'm not normally used to acting so just having to mime and show expression through my face was a challenge for me. However I thought I did really well in this scene to show emotion and interaction with other cast members whilst staying in characterisation still. Also, I thought that for saying I had a lot of quick costume changes and a lot of material to remember - I remembered it all well and managed to do my quick costume changes with no guidance. This shows that I am a very individual performer and can do things for myself. I thought that I managed to do the acting scenes very well for saying I am not an actor and haven't really done any acting before. I coped with it the best I could and I thought that for saying I'm not really an actor; I did the best I could. This therefore makes me a good all round performer

However, during the performance, I thought that I could of showed more characterisation in my face during 'Fantasia'. I think that at some points during the 9 minute dance; I showed good emotion and characterisation in my face but in some parts I was just blank on my face which wasn't staying in character. Therefore, next time, I need to work on my face and how I can involved the audience into my performance and make them believe what's happening on stage.
