Things I Know to be True
-Performance Skills-
- Relationships
- Bob and
Rosie
- Bob's use of eye contact to
Rosie is more frequent than
any other character. Around
Rosie, his body language is
open and relaxed, and body
contact between the two
characters is frequent and
appears to be heartfelt.
- Vocals between the two are kind and
non-serious, contrasting with how Bob talks
with Ben and the other children as well as Fran
- When Rosie returns from her travelling upset in one of
the first scenes, the relationship between the two
characters is shown immediately. Rosie is greeted by Bob
hugging her and lifting her slightly off the ground in
excitement with excited facial expressions and hyper
tones of voice to show how them being reunited is
making them feel. Close proxemics between the
characters demonstrate how close their relationship is.
- The comparison between how Bob reacts with Rosie and
how he reacts with his other children and his wife is
quite significant, his performance shows that Rosie is
clearly the favourite
- Bob's use of eye contact to
Rosie is more frequent than
any other character. Around
Rosie, his body language is
open and relaxed, and body
contact between the two
characters is frequent and
appears to be heartfelt.
- Fran and
Pip
- PIp's monologue is directed solely
at Fran, showing her frustration at
her childhood experiences. It
contains emotions including
anger, sadness and frustration,
and PIp also uses sarcasm to show
her bitterness towards her
mother. Fran returns the sarcasm
and passive attitude in her speech,
often responding to Pip's heartfelt
language with short, careless
murmurs, with a carefree tone of
voice.
- Physical skills between the two
are limited. Where Fran would
comfort Ben in his time of need
with physical contact (hugs/
hand holding), with Pip things are
quite the opposite. Proxemics
are used where by characters
can often be seen reasonably far
apart
- PIp's monologue is directed solely
at Fran, showing her frustration at
her childhood experiences. It
contains emotions including
anger, sadness and frustration,
and PIp also uses sarcasm to show
her bitterness towards her
mother. Fran returns the sarcasm
and passive attitude in her speech,
often responding to Pip's heartfelt
language with short, careless
murmurs, with a carefree tone of
voice.
- Mark and
Rosie

includmg hugs, kisses
on the cheek and eye
contact
- Range of body

- Bob and
Rosie
- Characters
- Bob Price
- Needs to be cast as an old man, looking elderly and tired but
who can use a variety of facial expressions such as
enthusiastic and shocked.
- His favourite character is Rosie, his relationship with his wife is
mixed throughout the performance, his relationship with Mark is
not visited in enough detail, his relationship with Ben is shown in
the scene where Bens issue is confronted.
- Slow and relaxed gait overall, apart from when he is angry.
generally a soft and caring tone of voice particularly with
Rosie. Open body language throughout.
- Needs to be cast as an old man, looking elderly and tired but
who can use a variety of facial expressions such as
enthusiastic and shocked.
- Rosie
Price
- To show her immaturity, her gait would be
childlike and possibly featuring a skip. Body
language is open and welcoming to show her
naivity
- Use of vocals would be more
high pitched, intonation at
the end of sentences to show
enthusiasm and innocence
with a happy, carefree tone of
voice. Her pace would often
be fast but with moments of
slow.
- Rosie would be cast
as a young, pretty
girl, prefferably
quite small to
show how she is
the youngest and
most childlike
character.
- To show her immaturity, her gait would be
childlike and possibly featuring a skip. Body
language is open and welcoming to show her
naivity

- Key Moments
- Bob Price leaning scene
- Held a still position, leaning forward using a rope to
hold him which shows the fragility of his position and
situation. He used fixed eye contact with a shocked
facial expression facing towards the audience but on a
diagonal; the facial expression allowed the audience to
feel sorry for him and wonder what was wrong. When
he spoke, he used a slow, steady pace with no real tone
of voice to communicate how shocked he was and how
he wasnt understanding what was going on, as if he was
still processing the news he had recieved o the ohone.
- This scene made the audience realise how something can destroy family and affect someone.
It leaves the audience wondering what will happen and who has died, creating a cyclical
structure to the play much like Blood Brothers. Seeing Bob so vulnerable at the beginning
makes the audience automatically relate to him and feel for him throughout the rest of the
performance
