New charecter

I'll hash out the rest of the charecter laters, but on my way home tonight I thought up of another charecter which I think reveals a large part of my own personality. Granted, this was on a work out high and after another 12 hour day at work, but I think this charecter can really fit into the whole concept of my play.

The concept of my charecter is rather stock. He's a shy boy that doesn't speak. Dramatically he's like the Silent Bob or, like I would like to think, the Lucid figure, aware and thoughtful whose words hold a lot of wieght. He's been cast off on the Redline like a lot of the other charecters - because of their isolation. He won't speak the whole play, but will be able to show a lot of expession. It's a definite challange for the actor, but I think it'll demonstrate how body language is essential. I also think it may be too ambitious and self conscious on my part, but the whole self conscious part didn't start until I started writing about it.

He is cast off on the Redline because he is too sensitive for the world. He empathizes to an extreme - to the point of helplessness. He's lost his voice in the process and has literally been searching for it. Figurativly he'll be another awakening and resource for the main charecter to get off the Redline with Gia, the lovely Gia.

So, that's all I got - and I turn 24 on Friday! How did that happen?
