I had the others finish their monologues by today.
Firstly, the group performed cold readings of the monologue they had written. Following the cold readings, we discussed the issues of appearance and anorexia. Starving yourself, being teased, and the kids shared their experiences and the experiences they had heard of. This is necessary for authenticity in the dramatic process. By encouraging everyone to recall moments they had undergone a similar experience, we were using emotional recall to heighten the emotions and realness of our monologue.
For the Session 3 the monologues need to be broken into beats and partially memorized. We will begin writing the overarching story that strings the monologues together.
