Ernie’s Incredible Illucinations task 2

At the start of the scene, I would have the actors playing Ernie, Auntie May and the man positioned facing the audience diagonally so the audience will notice they are still watching the fight. For example they would still considering the audiences sight lines therefore this would help the actor show they can still keep in mind the audience’s sightlines while performing.

Secondly I would have the actor playing Ernie hot seated to find out the backstory on how they stopped Auntie May from going on to fight more fights since Ernie made her ‘heavyweight champion of the world.’ This would enlighten the audience in the fact they know even more about to what extent Ernie’s illucinations and what lasting damage they can do. This would be achieving the KPI ‘describe how a hot seat can help develop a performance.

Thirdly to show the objective of Auntie May, I would make the actress playing her have very exaggerated gestures. For example when she tells the man to get into the ring she would make gestures like pointing at the ring and prodding he man in the chest while saying ‘are you a coward or what’ and the actor playing the man frown deeply and when she gets in the ring she will have very exaggerated moments getting through the ring barriers or over just clambers over the barricades.

Finally, I would have the actors improvise on the scene where the fights takes place. For example Kid Saracen could mock Auntie May for being ‘old and frail’ but she in retaliation she mocks The Kid for his reputation for what good is knocking out other people out.  This is where the fight begins the actors can add their own thing in like using their own style to make up dangerous moves but however there is no physical contact for that could injure an actor seriously
