Trifles
This is a very skeptical idea for me. As im personally a "visual" learner, i don't think my attention span would be as long for this direction of the play, though it would require the audience to really pay attention or they will lost for sure! That is what could be missing... Definitely, the audience will be able to discover new things about the play & maybe as an audience member, they can begin to create their own world inside their head to what would for them, instead of walking into a show, seeing a specific set and having to change their mind set to fit the world being shown and reallyyy trying their best to stay true the presented world and not the world that surrounds the individual. That is definitely a gain for this proposal. Overall, it is a great idea for me:)

I agree! I love the freedom it would allow the audience. This way they could connect to the play on a whole different level, because they would be creating part of it.
ReplyDeleteDo you mean that the audience would have to imagine the whole set? You would prefer to see this to a illusionistic set? I don't know if I would. I have seen plays done very well with minimalistic sets, but I have a hard time picturing this one. I feel like the mystery of it is in the scripted mess of Minnie's kitchen.
ReplyDeletei think leaving it to the audience to imagine the world of this play takes away from the reality of this show
