“pretend Scottish accent”
So, tonight was our second read-through/meeting about A Candid World, a Revolutionary War-era play by Dawn Brodey for the Lights Up! series at the Illusion Theatre.
My character is Davy, a Scottish soldier in the British army, and I am supposed to have a “thick Scottish accent.” Now, I like to think that I’m pretty good with dialects, though I’ve discovered that (somehow) I’m better at speaking extemporaneously with a Scottish accent than I am at applying it to my actual lines in the script, but hey…I’ve got a month or so, right?
Anyway, tonight, I just so happened to find a YouTube channel of a Scottish gentleman named Mark Day, and I will make him my unwitting mentor. Here is his scathing indictment of the Snuggie, featuring his cat Mr. Saunders.
