Realising Instincts Through Physical Objectives: Steps to Success

Your physical objectives can trigger the take over of your creative instincts. By having a purpose you can allow that purpose to drive your dialogue and let all events on stage become natural. There are steps to making this happen:


  1. Split your script into thought changes and beats.
  2. Start thinking about possible objectives. 
  3. Split up the objectives. 
  4. Get the piece on its feet.
  5. Experiment with what you have prepared on the script- thought changes, beats and objectives. They can change.
  6. Explore both extremes of an objective.
  7. Don't be embarrassed.
  8. Make all the grey parts in the play into technicolour. 
  9. Understand that rehearsals are for getting things wrong.
  10. Get  energy from everywhere- don't limit yourself. 
  11. Live through your objective. 
  12. Connect body and voice.
