On Wednesday's Acting Class, we were with S-McK. We continued for a ninth time to rehearse our pieces then we were learning how to understand and fully know our characters. Who they are, where they're from, why they do what they do etc. We were trying to learn how to understand Stanislavski through practising his method by working on our roles: The 6 Ws
WHO
WHAT
WHEN
WHERE
WHY
HOW?
WHO AM I? - Yermolai Alexeieyitch Lopakhin
WHEN AM I? - 1904/1800s
WHERE AM I? - Russia
WHY AM I HERE? - To take care of the Cherry Orchard
WHAT DO I WANT? - To be bigger in business
WHAT WILL I DO TO ACHIEVE MY WANT? - To betray Madame Lubov Ranyevsky by buying and cutting down the Cherry Orchard
Then we played a game of a Stanislavski/Chekhov version of Whose Line Is It Anyway?, an improvisation exercise.
