My group had a very basic scene where we have studied this scene even before we were allocated to our scene. Meaning, we pretty much had an idea of how we were going to stage it and show our interpretation of the scene.
We decided to sit down and plan everything before we brought it up to its feet and have a quick read through of the scene. We gave each other roles and we read the lines in the scene and then was told on where we are going to perform it. One of the theatre directors suggested that we use less multimedia inn our scene than any other group to balance out the multimedia show. We agreed because our scene couldn't be developed anymore considering its very straight forward and if we added some thing it would make the scene too much and not understandable.
The second rehearsal we brought the scene to its feet and put it in action. We originally wanted to swap Antigone's between each performance, due to the reduced amount of lines as the guard (which is split by two people) however later changed our minds. We were later evaluated by our peers and judged based on characterisation, projection and staging.
By now we have learnt our lines and I was absent on our two other rehearsals so we decided to go through the scene and modernising it by adding one or two props to make it a bit more relatable. We decided on costume:
- Creon shirt and tie
- Antigone red top (symbolising rebel)
- Guards 1&2 wear black with shades and ear piece.
