A View from the Bridge Act One – Volunteers please
Narration –
Alfieri –
Eddie Carbone –
Beatrice Carbone –
Catherine - How to read a play?
I’m going to model this and you are all going to practice with Alfieri’s speech
Stage directions indicate how something should be said or done or how the actor behaves
Stage directions in italics within the dialogue indicate that the actor should behave that way – the narrator will read these
Stage directions on their own should be read out to help you visualise what the actor is doing – this is the narration This is a cold read:
We will stop to ask questions (verbal and written in books)
We will stop to check understanding
If you want to ask a question put your hand up and we will pause the reading to clarify Reading a play class rules:
Use expression in your voice – consider the words used and the punctuation
Following along the page to see what is next/being read
Volume – adapt your volume to suit the character’s mood/attitude
If you don’t know the word – I might help you with how to say it
Use empathy to consider how the character is meant to feel<br>

A View from the Bridge: Recall 4 In your books please:
Where did Eddie go and how is this outside the code of honour?
What did he hear?
How did he feel about this?
What does he do?
How was this foreshadowed earlier in the play? In your books please:
To see Alfieri - this was going against the code of honour as they don’t speak to or trust lawyers.
That he had no moral or legal rights to stop Catherine’s marriage
He feels helpless and angry. He thinks Rodolpho ‘ain’t right’.
He calls the immigration office and explains that there are illegal immigrants living in his house.
The story of Vinny Balzano being shunned for telling on family foreshadows this.<br>
