Iambic Pentameter

We used this exercise in one of our rehearsals. In the rehearsal we would all walk around the room reading the monologues aloud, whilst we were reading we would look out for punctuation such as full stops and commas  Whenever one would appear, we would instantly stop turn a sharp angle and walk in another direction. The purpose of this is to understand the pace of our monologues which also helps us discover the moods in which they are presented in. For example with Oggy Moxon, his sentences are very long showing off that hard man persona of not having to pause for anything, where in contrast to Mark who has very short and witty sentences representing that ladish personality.
