Answer:
Educational Objective: Students will develop the increased ability to perform a monoact by seeing demonstrations, selecting, cutting, rehearsing and performing a monoact.
Materials Needed: prepared performer of a monologue
Hook: Have an advanced student come in to perform a monoact.
Step 1: Discussion of what a monoact includes. Ask students what they observed in the performance.
--The monoact is a scene with only one person physically present who is acting and reacting as though there was another person there. It is an acted out monologues scene. The invisible person is in the scene but at the moment listening to what the person on the stage is saying. The actor may react as though the invisible person has spoken.
A monoact is an adapted monologue, like one that you would use to audition with.
It is also like a scene, having all the elements you used for performing your scenes but with only you performing.
The 'invisible' person is usually placed in the audience area. The actor, however, maintains the fourth wall. In some instances, it may be appropriate to place the 'invisible' person in the scene with you. It is always best to choose the placement that will be most advantageous to your blocking.
