Catherine screams

Then Rodolpho enters the room, and immediately the tension is built up even more as Eddie shouts 'Get outta here! 'When Rodolpho tells Eddie that Marco is coming, there is a ' pause ' and just to show Beatrice's fear for Eddie's life, Miller uses a stage direction to show her 'raising her hands in terror '. Then when Rodolpho tells Eddie that Marco is 'praying ' (showing that he feels he is about to do something terrible and is asking God's forgiveness in advance) we are given another ' pause ' in which to fully consider the implications of what Rodolpho has just said.

Proctor and Elizabeth

During this task, we got into groups of four or five. Each of the four groups was given an Act from the play to create a statue of Proctor at contrasting moments. Proctor's emotions varied; each statue had a very different objective, e. g. to intimidate, to plead, etc. My group, looked for lines to base our statues on in Act One. Through my statue of Proctor- I had a straight back, my arms + hands were pointed forward and I had a frown, based on the line," be you deaf... ", I discovered a few things about Proctor.
