"HOBSON'S CHOICE" A TRIUMPH FOR THE FABULOUS PRACTICALITIES OF REHEARSAL ROOM PROCESS.

Techniques used in the performance phase of this production of " Hobson's Choice" include – ‘story idenitification ’ (a fundamental goal) focusing on processing the character’s difficulties expanding moments of surprise using ‘centre of gravity’ to manage and modify the character’s journey understanding ‘hopes’ and ‘expectations’ maintaining character complexity choosing which impulse in the cylce is the most appropriate
