Overtones



Believe it, OR NOT, I had not idea that there were only two characters in this play until I was halfway through the reading and Margaret actually showed up at Harriet's place, where Hetty and Maggie stirred one another up. When that was discovered, I then understood the controversy between Harriet and Hetty. The line where Harriet tells Hetty that "I am your subtle overtones," explained a lot about the relationship between Margaret and Mattie as well. Which leads to one of the things I enjoyed the most about this play. All dialogue between Maggie and Hetty was not as structured as the dialogue between Harriet and Margaret. Which allowed the audience to understand clearly that the conscious does not verbally speak clearly and concisely to the world around it. Power of the OVERTONES!

My Blog :-)


Firstly, this blog is being created for my Script Analysis class at LSU. Here you will  find my 'ever so selected, intriguing thoughts and notions' on plays that are assigned to our class as a whole and requires everyone individually to scrutinize(harsh word?). I am looking forward to reading these blogs in the future to have documentation of my progress with additional hopes that present and future theater students from the university can visit my page as a fond example of how to progress in their own personal analysis as well. 



I admit that this IS a challenge for me. It hasn't been often that I have been open, though now I have no choice, to sharing my writings with others. If you have gmail as well, feel free to follow me, KendreaDeon.blogspot.com of course.



First thing I'm keeping in mind with my school related posts is that I have EVERY idea about who is reading my posts and I want to respect everyone according to how we are connected. With my posts that are NOT school related, what I'm keeping in mind is that I have NO idea who is reading this. That gives me comfort. I find myself more open to audiences that I am unfamiliar with vs those that I have a direct connection to. Tangibility vs. Intangibility? Something like that.













Second thing I am using this site for, as you've probably already guessed, is a public online journal type thingy. I suppose throughout the semester I will keep things moderate, as a representation of me staying mindful of my primary reason for having a blog page anyway!! 




I must go. My brizzzain going crazy!


I hope you enjoy.






AnyHOOT, THIS IS ME, Kendrea Deon! Watch me grow, and invite me to watch you do the same!
