Make sure you read the post below this one. I'll post more thoughts on character analysis early next week.
enjoy your weekend.
get to know your character =)
Question to Ponder: At first glance, what aspect of your character do you think will require the most work?

hard scene... but looking foward to it.
that's alicia..
Hmm...I'm playing the White Witch, and I think the hardest part will be having "presence". I'll need a lot of it, considering that she's supposed to be 7 feet tall and extremely imperious, and I'm 5'5" and non-intimidating looking! :-D
I'm really excited to get started!
I'm very excited about doing the "captive of the silver chair" scene; I just read the whole book (the Silver Chair) over again! I always find good excuses to read the wonderful writings of C.S. Lewis yet again :).
being whatever the heck puddleglum is supposed to be-like a marshwiggle-what is that?!?
I am excited to be doin the retelling of antigone (sp?). but i can't think of a way to portray the character!
i need to work on Ed being evil b/c im not that evil. [=
Neither am I, Ryan! We have some work to do! :-D
I think playing dead will be fun
not as much fun as playing a marsh-wiggle, who's supposed to be tall mind you...hehe
yeah for scenes! i don't really know what is happening in the play my scene is about...guess i need to find that out :-) so i'm really just guessing how my charcter acts but the scene is really cool!!!
Dude, I get to pretend to be crazy! For once I don't really have to act. Muahaha. But on a more serious note, I do think the trickiest part about being hamlet will be being "crazy" without really going over the top.
Its hard for me to subtext; I tend to keep similar emotions the whole scene when I should be doing a variety. I really need to "be" Jill (not just Rebekah playing Jill). Does that make sense?
One of the hardest things for me will be acting out all that I have in my brain. I can see the scene in my head as I read it and see what she is doing. Now it is just going to be hard to figure out how to convey "the Lady in my head" to the audience. So probably attaching hand/body movements to my text and subtexting! Enough so that the audience can not only see what I am doing, but also the setting that I am in. So...I better get at it!
y'all make me proud =)
awesome responses here.... keep chewing on it
the good news is, you don't have to do all this work in a day.... or even a week. Your character will develop as you start rehearsing the scene.
Work now to lay the groundwork so that your imaginzation and exploration later will match the text. But once your foundation is there, let your imagination soar ... and have fun.
Jessie you should wear some killer wedges.That would make you really tall.
AMR,
Caba,
