INITIAL THOUGHTS ON ACT IV, SCENE I
For the last half hour of this session we tried some initial blocking of Act IV, scene i using various movement and music ideas to drive the opening of the scene forward. Even at this early point, the group found the barracking of Shylock could continue into the opening of the scene as the various members of the Court encircled Shylock before dispersing to their 'roles' in the legal process. The use of movement was primary however and this was obvious during a short run of the opening moments.
