In the start or the scene when Ernie and his Auntie May are
watching a wrestling match, I think they should be positioned at stage right,
slightly turned towards the audience that is to make sure they are seen by the
audience and not just the first person closest to the audience.
The wrestler should have his arms held above his head to
show he won the last match.
When it is time for Auntie May to enter the wring she should
be very clumsy about getting in, to make her seem more vulnerable.
Whilst this is happening the wrestler should be scoffing at
her to the audience, whilst pointing at her.
When Auntie May is preparing to fight she should be hopping
from foot to foot.
The referee should be between the two, looking as if he is
trying to stop the fight.
After this, all but Ernie should make a freeze frame of the
man cheering Auntie May on, of the referee trying to stop the two, the wrestler
backing off and Auntie may holding her hands up in a fist.
Ernie should walk into the middle of the stage then stand in
front of everyone else, making his wish/illusion.

Describe how hot-seat can help
develop a performance
To achieve this give specific
examples of the questions you would ask a character and what sort of responses
an actor might give. Say what they will find out about their character and how
they feel in the scene you are directing.
T
Hot seating can also help with
giving information on characters because the play or movie might not give the information
you need for the audience who needs some description or context in their
motives, personality, or what they are thinking when doing the play.
For example of what Auntie may
might say to a question like, why did you fight that wrestler? She can answer
with, “I felt a strong urge to whack that boy round the ‘ead, dunno what it
was.”
