I have to say, my first impressions on performing a monologue were that you learn your lines, walk into the middle of the stage and say what you can remember with a hint of passion. Of course this isn't true but i definitely didn't think my monlogue would take as much effort and thought as it has and is. These things include:

• Where and how it fits in the play


• Why is it being said?


• Where do I move? Does one emotion pull me one way and another pull me a different way?


• What does each sentence mean?

It's just so difficult because I can have an idea of how one part should be but then I find another way or get a different idea. All these different ideas and interpretations running through my head are fantastic for building my monlogue but are confusing the hell out of me. I am so excited about performing this. I am going to be SOOOOOOO nervous.
