What can we learn?

What can we lean from Henry V (suggestions from the cast) We can learn that from the performance of Henry V it was incredibly picturesque, if you would want to take a picture at any moment you would find that it was beautifully blocked and very clearly plotted to make it as efficient and beautiful as a theatrical picture as possible. However we found that some of the movements were clunky when they were changing scene or leaving and that impeded the audiences ability to hear what has been said and thusly they were unable to capture some relevant information. We need to make sure that as our costume shoes and set is very heavy we need to still allow the performance to be heard and for the set to be as efficiently quiet as possible. 
I found that the overlapping was really good, as soon as one scene had completed the next conversation would start, never allowing the audience to be bored or left waiting you were constantly at the edge of your seat and the stage was never left empty. One thing that they could improve on as said by our cast was the working of three sides, sometimes it was executed with certain monologues but I can imagine that sometimes the conversations were faced inward and only available for the central batch of audience members to hear. This meant that the sides weren't able to understand or see the faces of some of the cast members in certain situations. Every scene needs to be a chase and as soon as you get to close the scene is over and you've gained what you wanted, you need to be available for more to come at you and so never blocking or achieving your objective because it doesn't enable you to justify the continuation of the scene. Henry V Cast were incredibly good at not upstaging others, you could still watch the cast as they had created a world around them but you wouldn't of been distracted by what they were doing as they kept in minimal and focussed so that you could envisage the battlefield they were in without taking the focus away from the main actress.

Notes from the director were to stand in neutral at the sides, rather than playing with hair, as eventually the audience wont want to watch you as well as not using the doors greedily, and execute this by trying to go in in clumps
