Today’s class exercise taught me how stage directions can completely change how a scene can be viewed by the audience. The groups were handed scripts without directions and they had to interpret what the writer was trying to convey. Then the groups that wrote the plays came up and performed and it was seen how different the two performances were. This showed me later when I’m writing a script whether or not i should have stage directions or not. Should I hold the actor’s hand throughout the performance or should I leave it to interpretation.
