Anyone in the world

Since our last blog post, Caitlin and I have further developed and committed to our characters' given circumstances. We talked in great detail about the specific choices we would be making about our characters' relationship to one another, and to the rest of society. We are planning on memorizing lines as well as blocking the remainder of the scene in the coming week. This will allow us to focus on the depth of our characters as the date of the final gets closer, rather than worrying about memorizing lines and physical actions. 

I think it was really interesting to watch the other Proof groups present the first 2 minutes of their scenes last week. From observing others' character choices getting portrayed on stage, Caitlin and I were able to make more decisive choices about the direction we wanted to take our scene. We have aspects of our scene that overlap with some groups, as well as aspects that differ, which is pretty cool!

    I think It is really interesting how you guys have other groups to watch, allowing you to see different interpretations and then comparing how you feel about her to what you see. It can be similar to a person thinking they are really nice versus someone showing them how they are can really be mean which can cause a shift in identity. It's crazy to think that's the same for these characters we become.

    I have been noticing that too! Either taking inspiration from other groups or going a completely opposite direction, it's interesting to see how other people go about the characters that we all play! You both have done an amazing job as Claire and Cathrine, and I'm excited to see where your scene goes!
