Our County's Good Scene 1

Evaluation:
Three different monologues, of Wisehammer, Arscott and Mary.
I think that the four speaking characters on stage should be separated from one another. This is especially the three convicts. The convicts should be separated as they have their own story to tell, and it emphasises that they are different from one other.

Wishammer: was under a yellow light and walked forward, this was good as it added space between him and Arscott. I dont think he should go down at the end but end off to the side. he demonstrates his feelings of anger and is slightly deranged.

Arscott: 1st time under a blue light second time under a yellow light. I think the blue light was more effective because its to do with hunger and how it starts in the mind. Also i liked how Arscott was sitting down as when you eat your sitting down. Sometimes he speaks to fast, when discribing the food i think that he should also go off into a daze, deep into his memory, and look as though he can almost taste it.

Mary: was in a yellow light and looking down, when she pauses and says the word 'love' she looks up and stares out distantly. to make a bigger effect i think that mary should be looking out off stage to her left. Her body position could be wondering, and relaxed. But i think when she says love that she should look forward still in a daze but not directly at anyone.
