This is a commentary of what you can expect to see in the show. I will outline my initial ideas of what I am aiming for and why at the beginning of the process. Then I will add thoughts during rehearsal as to whether the ideas are working. Then there will be a final comment upon the finished scene. This section is to give audience members, particularly students, a clearer insight into the moment by moment action of our production so that note taking after the show won’t be hindered by a failure to remember – meaning that you can enjoy and watch during the play. Also, any opinions expressed are merely my own – there is nothing definitive here, agree and disagree as much as you like.
