Scenes Round #2!

Scene time once again! I hate scenes but I love them so, we will see how this goes--

If you are curious as to the scene, my partner and I are doing, it is a scene from Crimes of the Heart, a fantastically funny tragicomedy written by Beth Henley. Check it out! You can access it, as well as many other plays, from Twentieth Century Drama, or TDC.

Deep thoughts

Some days I get super nostalgic and thoughtful and I write down things like this, then I save them for days like this. There are so many disappointments in life. I feel that often there are myriads of small or big disappointments within a day. But that's what keeps us human. Pain, rejection, hopelessness.

Scenes!

Now that as an Acting 1 class we've made an effort to establish a solid basis as actors as well as friendships, I feel that we are moving onto the bigger playing field. Monologues can be nice. You don't have to worry about anyone but you and your character. Scenes, on the other hand, are much more like the real world. We get to figure out how to work with and give to others. That is theater. As far as starting scenes go I am excited. It is so interesting to watch others work in a different environment then they've been working in. I've been lucky to be able to thoroughly work both scenes and monologues, giving me a strong basis as an actor (and person). I will say more about scenes after our final scene performance, but for now, here is the link to the excerpt of the scene I and my partner are preparing, from Five Women Wearing the Same Dress by Alan Ball. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UDXtjL_-2O14PFJVHCUl8KwCq0pSxGDREk7MKIoXcWU/edit?usp=sharing
