It consists of observations on the characters, character analysis, a daily record of the rehearsal process, an overview of the process of developing each of the above mentioned characters, ground plans of the stage layout, a review of the play in Baton Rouge’s local newspaper The Advocate and thoughts/conclusions on the discoveries made during the experience of the play. All quotations are from the text of Mary Zimmerman’s "Metamorphoses".
