Clay Pool as Wilbur
Character Description
Ornery. Bitter. Got an axe to grind. All in a comedic way.
Scene Description
After sitting through an entire funeral service full of eulogies that he knows are all phoney, Wilbur, an ornery man on the best of days, calls them all out.

ActressNice job on this take. You have the script down well, and your "extras" were a great comedic choice—I actually wanted to see you lean into that even more. For the rest of the scene, I wanted to see more vocal variation. Shifting your tone and making distinct delivery choices would help break up the lines and keep the audience fully engaged. You have good instincts, so don't be afraid to play with those layers.

ActressWhat a fun energy you brought to this scene! I loved your unique take on it and I loved the pacing you chose for it as well!

ActressClay,
Well done. That was fun. I liked your delivery and energy. Your addition of the extra 'except you and maybe you' was fun without subtracting from the feeling of it. I liked your inflections and the vocal variety, although the tone seemed to be the same throughout. Good job.

You are one of the only people I've seen put the comedic spin on it. I feel like it could've been a little more subdued (just my humor preference) especially by the 4th "and you" however, you made it work! You built the character into a unique and memorable person. He was giving Corporal Maxwell Klinger vibes with the large, theatrical speech. Overall, nicely done.
