In class on Friday, I spent most of the time researching about different acting theories. Friday's class was much less hands on and much more analytical. I thought about the different ways I had connected with my characters in the past and opened my mind to new ways of connecting with them. For example, I read about an actress who likes to spend a day off stage just being in character to really try to connect and experience what it is like to be a certain person. I will try that in my research. Going forward, what I need to do is pick the specific monologues I want to perfect. I know the characters I want to try doing is someone scary, someone funny, and someone dramatic. Although those are all very different experiences, the connection between the actor and the character is the key of becoming someone else, and that is what I am trying to improve on.
