HOT SEATING

Hot seating is a very good way for our actors to really get into the mind of the character role they are playing. This allows each actor to really understand how their character thinks, talks and acts. Hot seating also gives the audience an insight of how each characters acts on a day to day basis as if they were real people. Therefore, each character in our opening sequence will be interviewed by answering a few simple questions. 

Questions:

1. What is your name?

2. What do you do?

3. Do you know Lottie Wilson?

4. Have you heard of Munns Park?

Although these questions seem fairly basic, it is the way in which each character responds to the questions, which gives us a good insight on their personality traits.

Script:
