Image Boards and Interviews

DAY SIX

Our ensemble did not meet for rehearsal Wednesday, but the actors were given a specific assignment to work on before Thursday night. An important part of the devising process for Mask, Movement, and Mayhem is each character's image board. These boards are reflections of the characters, physically and mentally. Components include 3 adjectives to describe the character, games they like to play, a song or rhythm they enjoy, and a dance step. Every board is unique and will be a continuing project throughout the rehearsal process. 

Each actor had the chance to present their board, in character, to the ensemble Thursday night.

Another important part of Wednesday's assignment were character interviews. Each actor had a partner whom they interviewed in character. Interviews could include questions about name, family, interests, and relationships.
