The process of creating the staged play was an extension of my research of Artistic Collaborative Tools. I started with a work group of 5 writer/actors and assigned them to take part in the adaptation of the Novel. After we had created a shared understanding of what sections of the book we wanted to emphasise on I took the next step in creating assignments for the participants to work out and improvise around. I as the artistic leader took notes of all the improvised material and translated this into a written play. The last part of the process when all the scenes had been worked out and the casting set by the participants, a more traditional rehearsal phase took place but always keeping the nerve of improvised possibilities. The play had five of each character that created a in-depth interpretation of the many facets of human psychology to be able to play out the inner existential dilemmas of the monster and his creator. The stage had two perspectives for the spectators of simultaneous acting with the lines inter-cutting each other to always show how you can see the world with opposing views.
