Task 3

Using the roles you had developed you created some scenes that show how these characters exist outside the play.

What scene did you develop?

My group decided to look at tale 6 because most of us researched the characters in that scene and did role on the walls for them. The three most popular characters that my group developed were: the warm tired woman, the sly man and the daughter of the warm tired woman who lives in America.


What drama skills did you use to do so?
We used split scenes to show what it is like between different characters. We used three scenes. The first scene was with the warm tired woman and her daughter they were talking on the phone with each other and you kind of see their relationship. In the second scene it is similar to the real scene in the tale where the man and the woman talk in the pub after the incident, however, in this scene you get to see the conversation and see hat happens after. In the third scene it shows a monologue for the warm tired woman; about her thoughts and questions she constantly asks herself even though she does not know the answer to. This is split between three people.
Explain what you did as your character. Why did you make these choices? (Think about character- voice/physicality.)
In our scene, I was in the second part of our scene playing the warm tired woman and Tara played the sly man. We chose to have a casual conversation sitting down about our children and our families. We decided to do this because their conversation is quite intimate and sensitive. It is not something that should be exaggerated.

Did the scene help you understand anything new about the play or another character?
 
The scene made me realise how calm and sensitive people in the East End can be and that different people can relate to each other in different ways.
