Guard scenes

My role as the Guard was split in two between me and Emily. the guards serve King Creon, and report anything out of the ordinary. The first appearance of the Guards is in the beginning when we reveal that somebody has buried Polyneices body, but not who. This is Emily, the guard who hides the full truth. However my guard character although says nothing but follow the other a keep quiet, wants to tell especially when threatened by Creon.

As the guard originally is one person, we have interpreted by splitting the guard's ethics and integrity into two separate characters. Emily's guard was I feel the stronger and more dominant guard, who was initially covering themselves to avoid Creon punishing them for letting this slip through their fingers as they watched over the body. In the original version of 'Antigone'. However, after being threatened to find out who it is or be killed, my guard steps up and reveals all in fear, "begging for pardon from all punishment".
2 sides to guard

In my scene involving my monologue, I have sectioned bits of it in my script on my blocking decisions and where I should stand/walk and where my focus point should be. I've decided to speak out mostly to the audience and partly to the chorus as I retell my story. Particularly when I begin with "Suddenly, a vortex twisted..." I will look up overhead into the sky, as if my character is reliving that unexpected day, using gestures of raising my hand above. I feel this character gets lost in their monologue, stressing every detail to the point where sadness and anger switch throughout.

I need to remember my blocking for this and to make sure I say only important lines directly to Creon and Antigone, as my voice needs to carry outwards and project to the audience, who are the main listeners.
