Character's Point of view: the secret of fun to play and watch Characters
Each person is distinguishable from or made similar to others by opinion, preference, or point of view. Comedy is often built on a confrontation between beliefs about oneself and reality. The trick is to avoid invented conflict in the scene and find fun and comedic tension in performance making compelling choices and that help the audience empathizes with your character. In this workshop, we will play with and explore point of view in helping to create characters that are vital and expressive.
