PLAYWRITING – Day 5
·
Take out your 10 steps from last Thursday.
·
In order to perform our scripts, we will begin
our rehearsal in mime to figure out what the characters are going to
DO…what they are going to ACT…the script will eventually tell them what they
will get to say.
·
NOTES (by Kurt Vonnegut):
- Every character
should want something, even if it is only a glass of water.
- Every sentence must
do one of two things - reveal character or advance the action.
- Start as close to
the end as possible.
- No matter how sweet
and innocent your leading characters, make awful things happen to them - in
order that the reader may see what they are made of.
Add dialgoue to your 10 steps.
