Question

What is a good drama excercise for naturalism?

Answer 1

Hmm. What do you mean by natualism, I wonder. I learned that it was the theatrical style most like read life. So I would rehearse the actors with their backs to the auditiorium, to break the habit of playing to the audience, a most un natualistic technique. Also I would have them speak only loudly enought to be heard by one another, then when you set up the room for the scene, set the furniture as it would be in a real room, with some pieces down stage with their backs to the audience. Incidentally Narualism died out because it ignored communicating to the audience, a very important thing for actors to do.
