Today we worked on the Archer's script that we were given last week. As I mentioned in the previous post, I am playing the character Anthea. Anthea is a well spoken character and that required me to do an RP (Received Pronunciation) accent. In the 2 scenes that I am in I am talking to a character named Lynda, played by Helen Patterson. In our scenes Lynda is asking Anthea is she will play the upcoming role of Maid Marian in a stage production of Robin Hood that she is directing.

Myself and Helen had a lot of fun rehearsing and performing this as we could play on the accent a lot by elongating certain words and playing with them. Our characters are older than we are and by the sounds of the script probably in their 30s or 40s, so this way we could had an older vibe with the accent as well. I definitely enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would and cannot wait to see what next week brings.

I will be posting the script and the recording of this as soon as I can.
