Kabuki spiders named Tsuchigumo in the plays, actually are really weird characters that need a great amount of energy on them. My character for this play is Tsuchigumo wich first enters the scene as a witch and after that transforms into a spider.
By practising my scene I had to work in a lot of things such as Planning, directing, acting,etc.
Working with kids showed me that sometimes their creativity might be more extensive than an teenager. Thanks to this we had a lot of ideas and finally had to join them up.
For doing this scene i had to practice more actions than voice because it was a fight scene. Actions for my character had to be strong, direct and like cutted in the fight scene. My movements had to be rigid and with a lot of energy on them. This gave the sensation of tension and something weird was happening on me.
I didnt get to find my voice for the character but i did a lot of experiments with my pitches and vocals.
But indeed, what i found was only strange noises that didnt went with my character.
Kabuki style asks for the spider to have a high pitch but for my character i think it would be better a low pitch. But in my all drama practice ive always had a great difficulty in doing low pitches. So, indeed this is a challenge for me.
If i change he voice of the spider would it have an great change in the character? Because, i mean... the goal is to create an evil voice. But an evil voice might be created in a low pitch or a high pitch and in my opinion both might have scary effects. But for a kabuki play, might it have a difference on character?
