Context:
Actors also worked on finding the physical centre for a character
- Gertrude and Ophelia chose their hearts. They explored movement
led by that part of the body. They also explored the effect
of locating private tension in a particular part of the body.
Further character work was done through movement exercises
exploring the relationships in Hamlet, experimenting with
both obvious and abstract partnerships. These relationships
were then expanded as the actors entered the court and formed
classical portraits in a series of titled tableaux. |
