Monolouge Refections

To create my monolouge, I used Jokanaan’s dialouge from Salome and edited parts to fit it together as one piece. In the play, Jokanaan is in the bottom level of the castle, he is headless and sits inside a water tank. For my rendition of this character, I visualised what would be going inside his head, in my performance, Jokanaan walks around, looks through his surroundings, punches the air, etc. Inerpreting the script as if his body was whole. In my perforance, I used movement to express the context of the scene and Jokanaan’s true feelings. I took Insapration from Rochester in Jane Eyre, played by Felix Hayes. I took on a samiliar accent, attributes, etc. While still keeping in my own character.
