Introduction:

The project- What is the project? 

My play is Death of a Salesman, and my character is Linda Loman, and she tries to stop Willy(Husband) and Biff (son) from arguing and she gets frustrated because they never stop, and Willy doesn’t listen to Linda and carries the argument. Linda is  a women in an awkward situation, She knows Willy is suicidal and is very difficult to deal with, but tries to protect him, she is a loyal woman who believes in the American dream but is unrealistic about the American Dream,  she is patient to her husband Willy Loman, Linda is a critical character in the play and is very important, Linda doesn’t work outside her home, she expects her sons to manifest the dreams of their father, she loves her children’s and is like the heart of the family, she keeps everyone together.

Week One :

The focus was to higher light my lines to make it easier for me and to see what I was working with, and who my character was,  I made a group chat with my team so we can help each other and show them what we researched, I researched more depth into my character, and typed it on my laptop, and after started to process my lines and try to memories my lines by asking my cousin to test me to see if I know it by heart, I also researched the costume that my character wears so that I am prepared and researched what lights and sounds were used in the play.

Previous Experience:

I got to perform my script that I had learnt to my class peers with my group, and it was amazing as I got really into the character and had fun and got feedback from the class like give the audience more eye contact and don’t laugh which I managed to consider. 

What I want to achieve this year?

I want to achieve good confidence skills and I also want to achieve a distinction because that is my personal goal to reach.

My targets:

•Ask for help when I need it.•Confidence.•Don’t get distracted.
