Doll's House Scenes (Beats and Motivation)

Julian and I were assigned the last scene of the play and HOLY EFFING MOTHER, I have paragraphs to memorize.



PARAGRAPHS.



Which is ok, as long as I work on it EVERY DAY. I'm just tired and exhausted and I'm really trying to get this scene down, especially since Jessica did it last year so I know I have some big shoes to fill. And I love the scene, I love the passion... So I really want to do it justice, you know? Make Ibsen proud. :)


And I've been really trying to get down everything Jessica taught us about motivation, and everything Ms. May taught us about beats. Really learning Nora's character and trying to get into her, to be her, to see her. To understand her so that when I go play her on stage, I'm not acting. I'm BEING.


I'm actually excited. I just think the hardest part will be getting the memorization down so that I can say the lines on instinct and really focus on my character, not the lines. :)
