Assignment 6 Corey McMullin

My group's presentation was lacking. We  devoted little time before the presentation to practice our roles, and so we read from the script for nearly every line. There were a few moments when I even lost my place trying to read Tora's script upside down, while Charlie had my script to fill in for Jesse. Costume was by far the best aspect of our performance. I even wore antique clip-on earrings to accompany my dress. We did, however, remain at the corner of the table for all but the very beginning of the performance. There was not much for our characters to do in regards to moving around the stage, but had we allotted more time towards blocking, we could have added variation to our scene.
By performing this scene, and watching the other groups, much of the humor became more apparent. While some of the jokes were obvious during the reading, it was not until it was performed on stage that the irony and puns were able to really shine.
