Other Work Samples for:

Bobby has demonstrated a thorough understanding of Commedia dell'Arte conventions and the stock character, Pantalone. There is evidence of effective research in the detailed portrayal of the character and the use of visual and verbal humour. Bobby has demonstrated a high level of competence in manipulating elements of drama such as timing, but could develop movement and narrative structure more effectively. There is a clear awareness of the actor/audience relationship but the script would benefit from a stronger indication of Pantalone's plot function. This work sample demonstrates characteristics of work typically produced by a student performing at grade B standard.
