Character Development - 14/05/2011

I have decided to concentrate on my breathing within the next rehearsals. In Piggy's speech it mentions the fact that he has asthma. It is due to this that I have decided to concentrate on my pace and strength of breathing, especially in sections of the play where he is scared or under pressure, which is quite often.

I think the sections of the play where this will be most affected are just after Simon's death, once Jack has thrown him to the floor on 'We'll dance.' and the lead up to his own death.

Simon's Death because he can't believe what he just took part in. He is shocked at his own actions and is panicked about what this means for the future of everyone else.

Dance because he is unsure as to what Jack is going to do to him and is not strong enough to defend himself if Jack wanted to harm him.

Piggy's Death because he is completely defenseless without his glasses and is in the hands of the most violent character in the play, Roger.

- Ebony.
