'Medea Monologue Evaluation\r'

'The monologue I was condition was an extract from the play ‘Medea. I contend Medea. My director (Mark) and I started with a read-through of the script, charge from the first read-through we decided the main typography was that we destinyed to manifest her need for revenge. We the realise this was from the same play that we watched last year. We apply this to rise up up with that themes needed much(prenominal) as her still being in love with Jason. We used units and objectives to the scene into sections. From disparate sections we got different units, some part should memorialize a very defenseless place then some others showed anger and love.\r\nWe realised this was a script needed different levels of emotion and having the ability to change your emotion very quickly was key. We decided to focus on her unre ratherd love for her husband (Jason) who split up and betrayed her. Also the anger that she held towards him because of the betrayal involve to be cock eyed. She needed to be quite hard and strong notwithstanding vulnerable at some points. Once we had zesty the themes and character personality we started do fitting rehearsals. I rehearsed by myself to learn my lines and come up with some ideas on how to set it.\r\nThen in school we tried and true the different ideas and different ways to scan severally line changing as we go. I sub-texted each line and brought it in so once again we can leave what she is really supplying to say with each line. This made us change how I said the beginning of the script. We hot-seated with different partners’ and the inquire really made me think. It made me want to show that she still loved Jason but hated him too. Our class did an exercise when we had to be stuck in a lift with as our character with other characters. This was eye spread too, just how much of a strong facade Medea put on to try and mask her feelings.\r\nThe set was just a simple chair in the snapper of the stage. We wanted simplicity so battalion could focus on the dialogue. The costume again wasn’t complex but discolor velvet toga (because she is a Greek princess); this was to show her royal roots. The rehearsal with Mr. Borrill was what turned it more or less because he told me what to focus on, what parts ar meant too be strong and what parts are meant to show weakness. It definitely helped me contrive how I wanted the audience to earn Medea in the last few geezerhood onward the performance. The day of the performance arrived.\r\nI used emotional memory to pull me into the mood just an hour before and I think this really helped in the believability. I think it is peerless of my crush performances; I felt like I connected with audience and used my jutting well. I had just enough focus filled moments and I used the subdue well. My main fault is my staging, I should’ve move around more and that is something we focused on in rehearsal but I think my nerves didnâ⠂¬â„¢t want me to move. I used props well, when I used it as a symbolization of different things such as one represented Jason. I think it was a very good performance other than the staging. I was proud of myself\r\n'
