It is I, Lady Johnson

With the mask monologues we have been preparing for the past week or so, we finally had the opportunity to perform them for the rest of the class today. It's definitely a different experience using a mask during your performance, somewhat liberating if I may say so myself. With the mask in front of me, I felt less self-conscious for once. I wasn't particularly anal about minor mistakes in my British accent. Overall, this experience of mask has definitely been a positive one for myself. The only issue my teacher had with my monologue dealt with the confusion over language. Although my character was natively Egyptian, she was able to speak English quite fluently and even at times with a realistic British accent. I guesss in my mind when I was creating the monologue it made a lot more sense to me, though it did not exactly translate to everyone else.
