My Characters in Blondie

1. A
My character in the play itself is "A". I find that A is the officer who represents the majority of people who are disgusted by Blondie's crimes and finds mass murders of any type abhorrent. The A's of this world would read about a murder or mass murder in the newspaper and cry , shake their heads and rant on about the crime for ages after hearing about it. He's the more serious officer of the two because C is just there having intimate eye contact with Blondie across the table. He would represent the people who would see a crime and perhaps admire the murderer. He is also the person who is still proud of voting for Blondie even after the genocide and also quite the air-head.
I knew from the start that A was a man so I had to sit like a man so I decided that when I went to sit down I would pull up my trousers (or whatever bottoms I happen to be wearing on the day) and lean forward onto my legs. I would either sit like that or i wouldcross my legs but cross them like men do which is where the foot is resting on their thigh annd the rest of the leg is just hovering. I would either lean back in the chair or I would lean on my legs but I had to be careful not to look to feminine, A is a very well-built, manly man in my eyes so the slightest sign of womanliness would make him look camp. In terms of speaking like A, I couldn't adjust my voice to sound like a man's voice because I'd sound like the Billy the Clown off the Saw movies. Instead I spoke slower (like Snape from Harry Potter) and used a patronising and condescending tone towards Blondie.

People in power scenes: Mr Iraq and little Iraqi girl
For the people in power scenes, I'm playing Mr Iraq and he's more of a representation of the whole of Iraq. To play him I didn't really have much of a physicality because he didn't really move much but he's a man of luxury. I did play around with the voice and accent for Mr Iraq and I had a lot of fun with it. I can't actually do an Iraqi accent and keep it going for long at all so I made up the accent as I went along. My accent sounded Russian with a stroke of Indian and my voice naturally switched to a whiny voice but it was funny and our people in power scene was meant to be funny, so there were no changes that needed to be made in that area.
The second character I played was little Iraqi girl who was only on stage for under a minute. She was chasing a puppy across the war field and got shot by an American soldier even though she posed no threat to them. The part was small, but memorable. For her character, I decided that she would be an airy-fairy little girl who skipped everywhere with a high-pitched voice, an average young girl. On stage, I didn't say much apart from "OOOH PUPPY IT'S SO CUTE" and I got shot after that sentence anyway so not much needed to be done. Apparently, my Iraqi girl impersonation was funny because everyone was laughing, especially when I got shot.
