REVIEWS PART 2:

1. Analyse the suitability of chosen audition material for audition context. Give an account that shows how you chose your audition material. In this case your "A doll's house" speech. You should relate your choices to your own vocal and physical abilities. Give details of the speeches that you dismissed and reasons why you dismissed them.

A doll's house is by Henrick Ibsen and the monologue I took from it was one from Nora's character when she plucks up the courage the tell her husband Torvald how she really feels. Again Olga told me to look at this play. I couldn't find it to read it but I did watch a version on YouTube by a university. I think I do suit the character, it is very different for me. I think I suit Nora because even though she is in her thirties, she seems very young still because she depends on everyone to do things for her and she doesn't do much for herself and gets carried away with money and so on so I feel like I could still get away with a monologue. I am a young girl so I could get away with the physicality of the character. 

2. Write a synopsis of the play from which your speech comes from.

3. How did you prepare for your audition? What did you do to interpret the speech and respond to the style of the audition text?

I used my spare time to learn my monologue and watch the play. I used the time to research the synopsis and the characters in the play. I interpreted the speech but saying it as I would say it if I was in the situation that Nora is in to make it seem more real for me. 

4. How do you feel that you have demonstrated effective and confident vocal and physical technique in an audition situation? Give examples, in reference to your text if possible.

I feel I demonstrated effective and confident vocal techniques because I think I came across like I really meant what I was saying. I feel like I really made the characters feelings come across. I didn't do much physically but I used more hand gestures to make it seem more like I was standing there making my point to whom I was speaking too. When it says in the monologue 'You are the reason I have made nothing of my life' I used a lot of hand and arm movement.
