Thank you for your production and showing
again how exciting and professional high school
and/or educational theatre can be. . .
As can be seen from the above comments, the opinions
of the experiment's production are varied. However, the
general idea implied by the statements was that these audi-
ence members (teachers, professors, and students) enjoyed
the production and that some even called it good theatre.
All of the comments received by the director through written
evaluation or spoken response have been accepted in good
faith, and they will help in her directing efforts in the
future.
- After considering the evaluations, the director made
some decisions in agreement with the negative comments.
At times the actors were unintelligible, but the overlapping
of lines within the scripts was often the cause. Primarily
due to the script itself, the performance of The Serpent
was a more dynamic one than that of Viet Rock. The perfor-
mance of Viet Rock must rely on effect for presentation
rather than portrayal. A few members of the cast members
lacked in total ensemble playing. The director feels this
was due to immaturity and lack of stage experience.
No evaluation of this experiment would be valid with-
out recording some of the opinions of the actors involved.
Although the members of the Company have not met as a group
since performance night, several members have written or
expressed to the director their personal feelings concerning
the two and one-half week adventure into Open Theatre.
