Progress with Les Belles-Soeur

Ok, well first off, I didn't enjoy the script we were given very much. I have learned to appreciate and understand it a little more, but I'm still not overly fond of it. I'm sure that after understanding it in a little bit more depth I may actually enjoy performing it. Well, I guess I enjoy performing anything, even if it's not an overly strong script. Anyways, my group in the first week of having this script have gone through it and edited the parts a little bit. For example, there were many extra characters that we did not have enough actors for, so we just gave certain lines to already existing characters. Now today after actually looking up the information about the entire play, i learned that Germaine's stamps are being stolen by the other women, so I realized that one line that we had given to me (playing Germaine) says "or how about all the stamps you've stolen", which doesn't make sense for me to say because Germaine does not yet know that her stamps are being stolen. So this weekend I plan to re-write the script so it is a little less confusing for our group to run-through it all the time. That's another thing we've been doing for the last couple days. Just pretty much running through it several times. We try to understand what exactly is going on with these women and what their importance is of the script, what their moods are exactly, and who they are interacting with/ who their feelings are towards.
