On Wednesday the 18th of November we performed our interpretation of the Crucible. I think that the performance went incredibly well considering the week before the performance we were struggling to complete a run through. I also think that I performed Giles Corey very well, I carried my accent through the entire piece and kept all of my lines. All in all it was a great performance.

Throughout my time rehearsing the Crucible I have come across many difficulties, performing as a man being one of them. I struggled to connect with the character but kept trying and soon found my own version of Giles Corey. I have done this by observing people similar to him and mimicking their moves.

The Crucible

I am currently involved in my class project of naturalism. For this topic we have been given the script of the Crucible. I have been given the role of Giles Corey who is an old man in his late 70's. I have to admit when I was given this role I was a bit worried as I have never taken on the role of a character of the opposite sex or of an elderly person; but was excited to explore and develop a character suited to the piece.
