Summative comments
James, you were able to explain how the original staging and themes would have been relevant to the contemporary audience of the day. You have demonstrated understanding of how the audiences would have received the original staging and understood the characters in the plays. I liked the way you gave an example of the human condition and how we are never satisfied! I think you tackled many of the main points but could have gone further and included the relevance of some of the political themes both then and now to further illustrate your understanding. Your practical approaches to the rehearsal and development process took on the significance of the play’s language, as well as its context. Your performances communicated your characters well with clear evidence that your use of vocal and movement techniques supported your intentions. James, you worked so hard on this project with such pleasing results. You embraced the challenge of both texts and responded with such focus to every piece of directorial advice given. You made a strong impact in an important central role, ensuring that the production maintained pace and clarity – well done.
