Episode #002
Start the New Year off with a dose of Chekhov's UNCLE VANYA. This is the beginnings of a weekly pay-what-you-can Zoom workshop with Simon Furness. Together we will discuss, analyse, rehearse and play!
Discussion: Spines/Super-objectives for all the characters collectively and individually. Keep it simple (ie a single statement for each character: eg to 'improve things for himself'). Reading the play a lot will help with this.
Scene Study: Astrov and Yelena.
(Time permitting) Analysis: Act 1 (beginning)
———
‘Sometimes we cut wood out of necessity, but why be wanton?Why? Our forests fall before the axe. Billions of trees all perishing’
