I'm going to school for theatre this year, and I've been asked to prepare a monologue for the first day. I have it memorized, but the character I'm playing is 68 years old. I'm only 16, and I want to know if there's a way to put on a voice without taking away from the dramatic essence of the monologue. I have a feeling that me doing an old man's voice would make it seem funny, when it really has a deep feeling.... I like the way I've been doing it, in my own voice, but I'd really like to be in character all the way.
Also, there's nothing really in the monologue that suggests the character's age, so if I did take a certain stance or voice, it might appear to be comedic.... T
Thanks
