RESTORATION WEEK 2


Week 2 -

This was put act 1 till 3 together as whole however first act 3 wasnt blocked, so this was done first. So because of the fact we had to run act 1-2 together first the peperation I took on was to learn my lines for these acts. while learnign my line i found when giving my self small objectives to each (so what I would like to achive after my lines/targets) emxplem from my script would be ACT 2 when Lay playant and mellofont together and last line of page 23 counting on to page 24-  Im saying  bassically dont ask me but do please. so the odjective here is tio use my voice to show that mellontfornt ask me to the querstion.

Other perpartion that i have carried out is a small articulation vocal work every day as it is key that restoration is key to all as helps to show states, whith the the show an helps build charatcer, text work that i found helps is to really over act on lines like pnato then bring it down, to help with the style of acting.

I found bceause we have worked on act 2 and three so all tigetehr three scene with Lady plyant i started to really develope my character, by giving my charcacater small little ticks such as always touching my face and making body contuct with other then my husband, so show im not instred and out of love, this is only a trail to see how it works within the scene. lady playnt is insolent to her husband and easy to any pretender.


Reasearch -

when looking at reshearsh about the style of acting, i found something that i may help when a female actress was to act a flirty on stage they would maybe show so ankle in the scene, this was bought in when men were acting as women; so the woman of the stage took it on as men in the adunice got a frill out of this, I found this would help for the bloking and when leaning over joe to show that im being flitsion to the adunice show a bit of ankle. 

I also found some prop research that all women in the 16th century would have those would me small powered boxes - that would carry the white powered make up in they would look a bit like this ....

this picture is off a make up box from the 1750 - however all the ladies would off had one like this as they were mainly pass down in the family from mothers ext..
