Abstract:
"In this thesis I explore similarities and differences in the creative process of theatre and film
performance as a first-time theatre actor. Performing in a production of Suzan Lori-Parks’ play
'In the Blood' as a graduate student, I chronicle my experience with the critically-acclaimed
tragedy versus my filmic experience on camera. Similarities and differences of stage and screen
are examined, as well as relationships between the two worlds of performative art."
