stage picture response
1. What was your vision as a director/creator for this project?
For me, I definitely wanted to do a topic I have a lot of interest in, which is horror. I did want to have fun with it and make sure the ending was, in a way, "dooming". I wanted the character trapped in an eternal fate, kind of like the character in the story.
2. What elements of the original story did you maintain in your project?
I kept the friction between the husband and wife, the husband being presumed dead and the husband returning in the end. Also, in both stories, the wife ends up dying. In my story, she dies in an unconventional way.
3. What did you change about the original story in your project?
I wanted to set it in the future, during the apocalypse. I set it with vampires and zombies, to make it a bit more interesting. I also made it in the end that the wife was stuck with the husband forever. I think it's definitely my own story but it stems from the original enough.
4. What is the twist or climax of your adaptation?
The twist was that the husband wasn't really dead. The same climax as the original story.
5. What is the strongest part of your project so far?
I think the strongest part is the ending. I think it has so much emotion. I like the idea of her being stuck with the husband forever because I think that topic is something that slightly makes everyone uncomfortable. I wanted to put out this bad feeling.
6. What is the weakest part of your project so far?
I think I could've picked better scenario. I like how it's set during the apocalypse and everything but I wish I did something more traditional. Maybe the husband was the serial killer the town was looking for. Maybe the wife thought he was killed by the serial killer and it turned out to be him. I don't know but I think I could've done something a little better.
7. How has this project helped you learn about how stories work?
It's made me think about all the necessary parts of a good story. It brings the importance of a backstory, so the story just doesn't start off with characters you don't know and a plot you don't know how the story got to. I also think it's incredibly important for there to be a climax because it makes the story more interesting and keeps the reader enticed.
8. How has this project helped you learn how theater works?
This project shows that you don't need moving aspects and full dialogue to portray this story. It showed me that taking pictures can be enough to relay a message. It's like the saying goes; a picture is worth a thousand words.
