Lesson 15th January

For today, Rachel held our lesson in a room where we all sat around in a circle. We used these 2 hours to discuss our given roles for the upcoming play, and did mini activities to understand deeper about our characters. This involved questioning our Act Two's character's disposition, their journey to the hospital ward from home, their lifestyle, their friends etc. We did this by pairing up with our double cast member, which helped discuss certain decisions.

This activity was helpful as we started thinking about each character with a genuine life and background rather than just their parts/lines in the play, in which we can feed this through to our roles in the performance.
