Today we looked at the blocking for scene 1 and also blocked more of it. We decided to change my position when I speak to the Theseus, so that I am stood in front of the exist and everyone in the audience can see me. Also I am kneeling, this shows the audience that I am begging, because I am a woman I am inferior especially to Theseus so by kneeling it is a sign of respect.
We then looked at Helena and Hermia's scene and what intentions are behind the scene. We decided it would be good if we staged it so Helena was walking in on Lysander and Hermia. I think during this scene Hermia is wanting to be alone with Lysander and Helena just wants to rant to Hermia. So during the scene I keep standing near Lysander but Helena keep standing between us and trying to keep us apart. I think this works best because it not only shows how much I love Lysander but it is also comedic.
