In The Plus (Final draft of the performance script)

Solo Peformance Script official

Above is the last edit of my script. Overall through looking at my script edits, you may have noticed that I went from an 8 to 10-page script to 5 pages. This is because throughout my process I realised what I felt was important and what wasn’t to my writing. These decisions were even made in this final edit where I wanted to refine my material.

 

Finally, significant edits came towards the end of my performance. I reduced the length of the voiceovers (Mainly for my benefit baring mind I was planning to run on the spot for it all) but also my monologue at the end of my performance I decided to review what I wrote and pick points of focus rather than discuss everything.

 

Apon reflection I found creating a script for 10 minutes very tasking, and I’m very proud of my ability to reduce the text when I may have wanted to keep sections of it. It opened my eyes to how to structure a show and what is essential to remain in a performance.
