If you can't get them to get the right feel perhaps you shouldn't be directing as that's a big part of the director's job. You are the interpreter of the piece. You come up with your concept and direct them to meet your vision.

If you can't do anything else, have them watch that clip.
Please,Hello

Today was the performance!!
