We began our week two session by rehearsing some monologues which the actors had written over the week on the theme of vanity. Some were extremely funny, and others made you want to commit suicide - some painfully realistic, others joyfully surreal. It was very encouraging to see how each writer's work was so diverse. As there are only five writers, most monologues were performed twice by different actors, and it was fascinating to see what different effects the same words could achieve.
After this, the actors presented their research they had gathered, also relating to vanity. After listening to some genuinely horrific stories (isn;t it funny how vanity always turns into destruction?), we soon retired to the bar for a stiff drink.
