Today we worked on the blocking and the singing of “Pretty
Woman.” In the scene before, Ollie and I enter the Pie Shop while Sweeney
reveals the body of Pirelli to Mrs Lovett. We cross paths on the stairs and
then it is only Sweeney and Turpin alone in his shop. From there we perform our
dialogue which then leads into the song. Before blocking our movement
throughout this song, we sang through it a few times to get used to the timings
and to learn the harmonies properly. This was something Rob and I struggled
with but after working on this all lesson, we were much more competent with the
song.
Next lesson, as we have both Tom and Dan back, we will work
on Pirelli’s death and have Tom sing through “Johanna.”
