Part Six: Miscellaneous Things

No cut this time because this isn’t so long and detailed. (It’s the last part, everybody! Aren’t you happy that Ellie will finally wind down about this and just post normal-person analyses again instead of her full-blown six-part staging concept?!)

The psalm in Act One and the cow in Act Four, as audio-only segments that are referenced in the dialogue, are captioned with the stage directions alluding to them. The opening to Act Three is also captioned with the names of the people speaking the lines.

The sole exception to captioning the audio-only segments is the ending with the drums. The drummers just go onstage for the audience to watch them intensify, and to keep them as ominous, faceless presences, their backs are turned to the audience and the intensity is in the arm movement.

The metonymy of name and reputation employed throughout the play (especially in Act Four) is even stronger here than in the original because both concepts are signed the same way.

Also, a brief little fancast (I have only gotten to my favorite characters and Danforth, who is not a favorite, haha):

I say we should just reunite Alex Boniello with Daniel Durant and have them play Proctor. There’s a certain kind of synchronicity and cohesion they need even within the deliberate lack of sync written into this staging, and they definitely have that. It doesn’t hurt that they both have experience with anguished characters (and that Alex has finally learned to wear long hair without looking too much like an angry teen--with a little adjustment, that should translate into wearing long hair and looking more like a respected farmer).

Sandra Mae Frank with Krystina Alabado as Elizabeth would be everything. Sandra, as always, would be able to capture the emotion and longing so purely, and Krystina knows her way around uncertain characters (see also: her portrayal of Samantha in The Mad Ones).

My friend once teased me and said I probably wanted Robert Ariza in here, but that’s actually a good idea and I can see him as Hale with Josh Castille. They both have that youthful exuberance needed for Act One, and they can equally capture Hale’s gradual descent.

Hear me out...Patrick Page and Russell Harvard as Danforth. Russell’s 45 and would normally be too young, but since he’s signing for Danforth and personifying his certain mental state, it manages to work. Personifying his mind as a middle-aged man suggests that he’s old enough to lose sight of his fallibility and his purpose, but not so severely rigid that no one gets a chance (he does, after all, manage to hear out John and company for a time). While his chances aren’t the fairest as he’s already made up his mind regarding people’s fates, that’s a side effect of his certainty and he doesn’t seem to be doing it to be evil. Patrick is known for playing antagonists, but they're often the kinds of characters who know they’re wrong. It’d be a great challenge for him to portray a knight templar who’s trying so hard to be the hero and doesn’t realize he’s wrong. He’ll be the one capturing the blinded, unbending aspect of the character. As for Russell, he’ll be playing the slightly more open, balanced aspect who lost sight of his purpose and is painfully close to self-awareness, only to come to the wrong conclusion completely.

For a reading. Did Pedro have a romantical relationship with Russel Harvard? And how is their friendship now?

Hello! I have already done a reading on them a while ago! There you go:

Also, that repost from yesterday shows us directly from Pedro they continue to be friends. 💜
