Subtext Exercise

In this video we are performing a section of our play 'A Handbag' expect in this run we are trying to subtext and delve deeper into our characters than just the script itself lets on.

As you can hear in the video every time we believe there is a deeper meaning to what we say we clap to signal that we are going to speak and then we say what we believe is on our minds.

This is a really good exercise because it allows us to explore and improve our characterisation as we try to read between the lines of the script and improve our understanding of the people we are trying to portray.

After this exercise I felt much more comfortable playing George as it felt more natural.
