Bonnie on the other hand appeared more relax and comfortable. Her ‘Susan’ appeared very seductive. She darted flirty glances at ‘Gregory’ when she delivered her lines. Her voice was clear. She lowered her voice slightly when she delivered the more suggestive lines. When she was teasing Gregory in the beginning, she walked around Gregory, which made her appear more dominant. She used her body language quite well, pointing her body towards ‘Gregory’, which made the scene more intense.
Fion portrayed Susan as a sweet character. Several times she tilted her head slightly when she was talking to Gregory with a slight smile. She could improve by speaking louder and clearer. Her tone was quite flat and not dramatic enough. She was facing Gregory most of the time and standing sideways so the audiences can only see half of her face most of the time.
Marcia made Susan appear a shy character. She looked at the floor couple of times when she was delivering her lines. She appeared self-conscious and awkward. Her voice was loud and clear and she made eye contact with the audiences several times. When she was supposed to tease Gregory about his coat, she just delivered her lines flatly. At the last scene where Gregory and Susan finally kiss, she appeared to be very startled and jerked away from Gregory when she heard the other characters counting. She quickly got over this error and went back to the kissing position, which appeared very passionate.
I tried to make Susan a flirty and seductive character. I turned my body towards Gregory at times and made eye contact with the audiences. When Margo told Susan Gregory was a sex maniac, I nudged her slightly and said the line “…how ‘bout resisting a breast?” so Susan would appear to be teasing Margo. When Gregory and Susan were dancing on the floor, we turned our bodies sideways so the audiences can still see our facial expressions.
When Gregory and Susan was interrupted by Eric while dancing laying on their back, I thought Susan should be startled then embarrassed. The other ‘Susans’ made her appear startled then amused.
I realized all of the Susans including me did not indicate Carol was speaking to her on the phone. Susan could have mimed talking on the phone on the other side of the stage to indicate that.
