23rd September: getting to know our characters.

Today we were able to go into more depths with our scripts, i found that in act one of "the curious incident of the dog in the night time", my character, Mr alexander has a lot of scenes with the main character Christopher who is autistic, i notice the character is very friendly towards Christopher and when i play this role i will have to show that i care a lot for him, I also have a few lines in the second half, one being my second role which is a 'London transport policeman'.

We practiced our lines and tried to get into character, this way we could develop a bigger understanding of the way our characters behave and feel.

The play is basically about everything that is going on in Christophers mind, and we as actors act out what he is saying, for example when he mentions how he came home and his mother was not home, as he explains every movement when he got home, each actor acted out different things Christopher did, which looked effective.
