Abstract

The focus of this thesis was to learn about acting through the performance of a solo script. On February 6th, 7th, and 8th, 1998 I performed Krapp's Last Tapeby Samuel Beckett and On the Harmfulness of Tobacco by Anton Chekhov at the Benedicta Art Center. Through these performances I learned a tremendous amount about my acting process and so in this sense the goal of the project was achieved. A paper was also written primarily as a reflection on the process and outcome of the project.
