They make an agreement to meet at 8 Oclock in the kitchen on Friday for breakfast. Gregory then leave behinds and his father picks up the purple tie with disdain. For acting out scene 3, I would have a stage set which has Gregorys bedroom, the kitchen and the passageway. The bedroom would be on the left side of the stage. On the right side of the stage would be a passageway which leads to the kitchen in front. Opposite the bedroom would be a door offstage. This would be used to exit/enter the flat.There would be a besiege with a door splitting the bedroom and the passageway. There leave alo ne be no mole to separate the kitchen from the passageway because the consultation will not be able to limit the kitchen. There will be another door in the passageway which would be Madelines room. Madelines room would be female genital organ Gregorys room. This room the hearing will not be able to see therefore there will be no need for this room to have props. The props in the bedroom would have a bed facing the audience which would have the blanket shoved to one side and it would be situated on the far left.Next to the bed would be a brown desk which would have a lamp on it, a silver disquietude clock, an electrical toothbrush, a roll on deodorant and some books in a messy pile. Next to the desk will be a water closet and next to the cupboard there is a long mirror. On the nucleotide there will be a school basis some clothes which are in a messy pile. The colour of the room would be blue. I would make Gregorys room a bit messy to show to the audience the typical lifestyl e of a male teenager. other way to show his laziness of waking up is the silver frighten clock to show that hes not bothered about being late for school.The mirror would be there to show him getting changed in front of the mirror. The other props in his rooms are extras to make it check like a bedroom. The props in the passageway would have maulers machine-accessible to the wall with jackets on them, a telephone and clock attached to the wall with a desk just below it, some shoes seamed up on the floor against the wall near the desk. Next to the desk would be a sorry school bag (this bag belongs to Gregory). The colour of the wall would be brown. The props would be here to show to the audience that this place is the passageway.The kitchen would have a hand, a washing machine, a cooker, a kettle, a microwave, a fridge, a shelves attached to the walls, there would be plates next to the sink and the walls would be white. The props in the kitchen are here to show what a typical ki tchen looks like. The way the pseuds speak and move is real important in this scene. As a director, I would choose to start off the pass by opening the stage curtains and the first thing the audience will see is Gregory buttoning his shirt in front of a mirror. The clothing Gregory would be wearing is black trousers and a white shirt.The clothing he is wearing is his school uniform. While he is dressing he is whistling and miserable side to side. When the audience see his room they can tell that he is a typical lazy teenager by the mess in his room. Madeline will then come of her room into the passageway dressed up in her school uniform carrying her brown school bag. She then puts her bag next to Gregorys on the floor then stands outside Gregorys door listening to Gregorys monologue. The actress playing Madeline would be leaning against the wall and would be smiling. She would be wearing a black skirt, a white shirt with a black beginninger and a school tie.This would show the audience that she is getting ready for school. Gregory then stops buttoning his shirt and says ooh dear me, almost forgot my twelve moment protector. That would never do. Just a little roll fights off the ogre sweaty odours for a full twelve hours. thusly a little pat to encourage the chesty follicles and perhaps a quick whirl round the band of the Y-fronts and hes protected. One hundred per cent protection against all ugly odours. Or is he? . I would make the actor use a commentating instance when the actor is saying these lines.The facial expressions when the actor is speaking he would be raising his eyebrows and moving his head. When the audience see this scene the audience know that Gregory likes to smell good. Then Gregory puts his hands over his mouth and smells his breath. Then he exhales out loudly smelling to see if his breath smells. When the audience see this they realise that Gregory does not like to smell bad and he likes to turn a good impression of himself. H e then says cant smell a thing. Better give the shiny molars a polish, just to be on the safe side. The way the actor would say this would be in a oh well note of voice.The actor would shrug his shoulders and raise his eyebrow slightly when he is saying this. Gregory then picks up his electric toothbrush, selects an appropriate brush, clicks it into place and then turns on his brush. He is in tune with the brush. Gregory then stops brushing his teeth and puts on a purple tie. At this point Madeline walks into his room, stops dead and stairs at his tie and says youre not wearing that tie are you? . When Madeline says this she would say it in an uurgh green subscribe. Gregory would then jump from fright and would turn around saying please dont creep up on me like that.You could damage my delicate relationship with this finely tuned mechanism. He would then say in a suspicious tone whats wrong with the tie. Madeline would then reply in an accusing tone it jars. Gregory then says so in a not bothered way. Madeline then says it will set peoples teeth on the edge. Gregory then argues thorn its a statement. Madeline then replies only to you. to everyone else it shows dreadful taste in a criticising tone. When Madeline is talking the audience know that Madeline is in control and that Gregory listens to his sister who is younger than him.At this time Gregory will be prepareing his tie feel back at the mirror. Madeline will then go to his bed to muckle up his duvet. When the audience sees Madeline fold up his duvet they see that she cares for his sidekick and she act a lot older than her big brother Gregory. Madeline then sits on his bed staring at him. Gregory then says in a curious voice arent you late for school or something? . Madeline then says tone at his clock Im waiting for someone. When the audience see her look at the clock they think that the person she is waiting for is late or. Gregory then looks at her and says oh.Who? . Madeline then gets off th e bed and walks past him stops at the door turns back and says Richard. He walks me to school. At this time there will be a sound effect of a doorbell. Madeline then opens his door and leaves going into the passageway, she then collects her bag and when she gets to the front door to leave the flat, she opens the front door then says see you and Madeline the departs with the front door close behind her. Gregory then leaves his room fully dressed and says bye. He then stops dead and looks slightly up then says to his self walks her to school.Gregory then ponders at the purple tie and throws it to one side onto the desk in the passageway. He then undoes one shirt button facial expression at the audience, two buttons then three. Gregorys vest shows then he tries to adjust it but it fails. He does his third button up and his father then comes in through the front door and looks at him and shouts good paragon. Gregory then replys in a normal high voice hi Mike. The actor playing mike ha s a newspaper and goes towards the desk and says call me dad, Gregory, or pop ore something . . . it makes me feel better when you call me dad . . . or father.Mike then puts the news paper down onto the desk. The actor playing mike says these lines in a disappointing voice. Gregory then says as you wish, father in a not bothered way. At this time Gregorys father walks into the kitchen and opens the fridge. Gregory follows him. Gregory then says how are you anyway. Mike replys fine. Were all very well. Your mother was asking about you only the other day in a surprising voice. At this time mike has just taken a bottle of draw out from the fridge. Mike then continues I told her we had met in the hallway, briefly, last Thursday and you looked fine.Mike then puts the milk near the kettle and takes the kettle to the sink and now he is pickax it up with water. Mike then turns the tap off and takes the kettle back to boil the water. Mike is continuing this is an added bonus. Shell be thr illed with news from this unthought sighting. Mike then presses the button to boil the kettle. Gregory then looks at the kettles light and asks his dad so what keeps you hanging about the homestead in a curious voice. Mike then corrects him in a correcting voice returning to not hanging about. He then says in a tiresome voice I have already taken Mr.Clarke for his pre-test inviolable up, done an hour with Miss. Benthal and since my next knob Gregory then buts in and says client? Bit over the top, isnt it? in a humorous voice. Mike then looks at Gregory with a raised eyebrow and continues my next client happens to lives nearby so I dropped off for a cup of coffee. alas the adaptor for the coffee machine seems to have walked, and, not unnaturally, I surmised that it may have walked here. Mike says the last few lines sarcastically to give the audience a bit of humour.
