Rehearsal Process

As an student actor I would say Posh is a very challenging play. It made me have an experience of a lot of firsts. But the main one is from beginning of the play to the end except short breaks most of the actors are on the stage and acting becomes non stop.
Of course if even there’s no line to say or any action to do actor has to use body language, has to have natural respond to happenings and by listening to keep her/himself on.But to do this during whole play is challenging.
I discovered from rehearsal process that one actor’s energy effects the whole group and realized how it is difficult and disappointing for director to see somebody apathetic and insensible. I’ve learnt how to keep my energy up and to be able to take directions. I had chance to speak up my views about the directions and also listened other actors views in different scenes. I certified again that actors views most of the time could go opposite to each other and sometimes even with the director. I’ve learnt how to limit this views in respect. I’ve learnt that I can keep my character alive and fresh with my effort as well as others. Other actors behaviours, body languages and and tones show my characters place in the play as well as speeches and any mistake can drop it or make it higher so easily. So it means an actors performance doesn’t mean something. Others reaction makes the magic. Playing other sex is hard but I think I’ve managed to put it on my body ( walk like man and movements) but have struggled with hand gestures and voice.
