WOS:

Today we had a discussion on Act 1; specifically, we examined the comic elements of the play.

Part 2 of class, we talked about stage movement, otherwise known as blocking. I broke you into small groups and assigned you a part to block in a comedic way. Videos to follow....

HW: Please read act 2 and per usual, come in prepared with at least 5 discussion questions. Please once again focus on the comedy. Please continue to think: Is this play still funny? How would you make it funny if you were going to direct.

Part 3 we made believe that we were casting the play with modern celebrities. Specifically, I asked you to find characters that would add to the level of comedy.
