Notes Of Improvement - April 1st 2015

These were the notes I made personally after the run through we had on the 1st of April. Everything here are things that I noted that could be improved to help better the performance overall. With these changes made I feel that a higher standard of performance can be made, and therefore a successful production will be shown.
