Smart Targets Log - Body Language - Waiting For a Girl Like You (6/11/23)

 (36:00 - 40:00)

Although this version of the number is considerably longer than the one which we perform, it has been very useful to analyse as it has given me a lot of inspiration as to how we can develop the comedy moments within the song and play on the awkwardness between Drew and Sherrie even further for a greater comedic effect. I particularly liked Drew's almost frantic movements that conveyed he was nervous in a much more light-hearted way that still clearly displays his emotions to the audience. Through his body language he is also able to convey his inner thoughts and emotions about Sherrie too which is something that although much more subtle I would definitely like to work into my performance. 

I feel that I can develop the character of Drew a great deal in this song through my body language. I hope to use those more frantic movements alongside more subtle changes in how I hold myself to create a more effective performance that will engage the audience as well as entertain them throughout the whole number.
