Methods: Given circumstances, Circle of attention, Emotional memory, Objective/Super objective
Effect on audience: The goal of Stanislavski's plays are to make his audience truly believe that these events taking place before them are real and is in fact "not a fictional play"

The conversation starts off with the customer asking for his 'usual' which follows with confusion as the counter person claims to not know the customer or 'his usual' order. This then trails off into the customer opening up about his life for the past 4 years and the troubles he had experienced. To their surprise, the both seemed to bond over these experiences and discover that their lives are a lot more similar then they thought. After exchanging their almost identical stories of their lives, the customer becomes impatient and informs the counter person that he is going to be late to work. The counter person then questions the customer asking if he "finds it strange that [they] have all these common experiences." The customer quickly dismisses him and all his examples: "We both had a wife named Rhonda" "We both lose our suits at the cleaners" "We both lose our money investing in Ferguson chemicals" and so on. Even after stating that their names were 'Sam Dopple' and 'Sam Ganger', they failed too see the irony and clear statement that they are essentially clones of one another.

This is a necessary step because if you don't properly prepare your voice before performing/rehearsing, it could lead to permanent vocal damage which may put your career at risk.]]> 2023-01-11 15:09:55 UTC https://padlet.com/8184385/hi6s0g3aa3d2mzyn/wish/2440960514 8184385 https://padlet.com/8184385/hi6s0g3aa3d2mzyn/wish/2440960860 When working on a stage production, there are many trip hazards within the environment. If the show involves a crowded set, the actors need to be made aware of their surroundings and try their best to avoid tripping over during rehearsals as well as the actual performance. Trip hazards are not only apparent on stage but also backstage where a lot of equipment may be, and if not set up properly, could lead to injuries to the crew and/or performers. This could lead to a lawsuit for the company as well as risking a loss of staff and performers.

Before changing a lightbulb in one of the lamps, it is crucial that the lamp has had enough time to cool down as they heat up quite quickly once left on for a long period of time. When handling the lights, you must wear heat-protectant gloves as it cannot be handled with bare hands due to the heat it emits. ]]> 2023-01-11 15:10:14 UTC https://padlet.com/8184385/hi6s0g3aa3d2mzyn/wish/2440961062 8184385 https://padlet.com/8184385/hi6s0g3aa3d2mzyn/wish/2440980461 1.vocal warmup

Both Brecht and Stanislavski's methods became very popular and is still used today in modern theatre and even appears in film and TV. Whereas Brecht preferred to keep the audience aware of the fact that the performance is simply a piece of fiction being showcased for entertainment purposes, Stanislavski wanted his audience to truly believe the actors and for the play to be performed in a fully realistic way. Stanislavski would have the actors fully immerse themselves in their role and completely become their character using the help of given circumstances and objectives. Using these methods, helps the actor understand their character on a deeper level by imagining how they would react in certain situations as well as using their super-objectives to figure out what they really want in the play. On the other hand, Brecht used methods such as direct address and narration to involve the audience in the production, allowing them to see that its just a play and nothing was real. Both practitioners ways of acting have hugely impacted theatre today and assists us in creating powerful pieces (whether it's epic theatre or method acting).]]> 2023-01-12 17:39:57 UTC https://padlet.com/8184385/hi6s0g3aa3d2mzyn/wish/2442623595 8184385 https://padlet.com/8184385/hi6s0g3aa3d2mzyn/wish/2443554022 To fully summarise, I believe my performance was a success yet there was still room for improvement. I am pleased with the connection my partner and I were able to show the audience and although we confused some of our lines, we managed to make it work and continued to perform without alerting the audience. I believe that in order for me to improve myself further, I could heighten my reactions and emotions within the scene to give my lines more of an impact and add to my character. On the subject of learning lines, my partner and I used a lot of repetition in our rehearsals which had really helped us in going off book after a few weeks so we could focus on building up on characterisation. Overall, I think that my performance was a great way of showing me the areas where I can improve and where I'm strongest. ]]> 2023-01-13 13:17:11 UTC https://padlet.com/8184385/hi6s0g3aa3d2mzyn/wish/2443554022 8184385 https://padlet.com/8184385/hi6s0g3aa3d2mzyn/wish/2560270252 “This is my own work.
