Imagination

Chapter four....took me by surprise. I was not expecting to see a chapter on imagination in this way. I enjoyed the chapter very much. The concept of developing you imagination intrigues me both as an actor and as a human being. Imagination is the driving force behind creating a role this way. You give your character a life that he or she has had before and after the script. I know that I personally think that I have a very active imagination but also a very picky and selective one. My imagination can create wonderful stories about people I know well or people that I have never meet. (it is unfortunate that I currently lack the writing skills to tell these stories) However my imagination does not like to be given a tiny piece of information and then have to give that person a story. It feels to restricting. (Yes I confuse myself as well). The nugget I take with me from chapter four is that imagination is that everything that you do on stage is the result of your imagination.
