Final Monologue Performance

Monday 9th November

The day had come to perform our monologues that we had spent over a month preparing, complete with costumes etc.

After the hot seating session on Thursday, and continued preperations on friday, I felt very confident about performing my monologue despite the nervous vibes.

After a quick vocal warm up, which consisted of the usual 'aahhhing' and breathing from the diaphragm, we got started on the performances. Overall, I felt that mine went quite well, but unfortunately I managed to mess up one of my last lines, and was unable to prevent this from being understood by the audience, as I came out of character, despite pulling it back for the last few words... what a shame...!

I thoroughly enjoyed our insight into Stanislavski, I felt that I could relate to many of his ideas, and was also able to use some of them in a workshop which I carried out as part of my CAS at my old secondary school!
