rehearsal tasks - happy or unhappy?

All the tasks that were given I understood to a certain extent. There were a few that I didn't really follow, like the actioning. To me I felt that doing that would create a huge barrier between me and my character and I didn't want that to happen. What I did find really useful though was the 'Approaching the Script' method which I learnt back in 2012. For me this was the best way to understand who you were on stage and what purpose you have/had. Having that in my locker definitely helped me then and will do in the future.

Tasks that I felt would've been credential to a successful performance would've been the ones where you'd have to put all your trust in another person. There was a sense of trust in the cast but only with some people. That's why in my opinion 'Our Country's Good' was by far the best performance because you can tell that everyone believed in what they were doing and there was a sense of trust all around the stage. To me, that's one of the most important things while rehearsing for a play. Being able to trust one another.
