| Description | As previously noted, improvisation is used in a number of different ways and to achieve a range of aims, both within and beyond rehearsal contexts. This chapter will be focused on the potential the use of improvisation holds for the purposes of characterisation, which Lorraine Hull sums up as follows: [improvisation can be] utilised for an actor or director to deal with a psychological problem, to develop behaviour to make a character more believable, to develop a better sense of a character's physical life, to develop some aspect of the character not evident in the actor's work on the role, to understand a character better, to execute an intention set by the actor or director, or simply to note what instincts actors follow in staging a particular scene. (1985: 133) Book Name: Contemporary Rehearsal Practice |
