Brecht vs. Stanislavski

Brecht's version has more natural light and she is more serious and with no emotion. In the scene, she puts on makeup for the transition on stage instead of back stage. She takes her father’s money and ring which is the class and society aspects. The music in Brecht’s version is more upbeat than Stanislavski. In Stanislavski’s version the light is dark and her face is more emotional. Stanislavski’s version is progressing slowly while Brecht’s version is more sharp. In Brecht the actor talks as a narrator and then back into character. In Brecht’s version she is staring at us and in Stanislavski’s version she is more emotional and looks at the ground. The tension is present in both versions. In Brecht, the tense is more uncomfortable and weird because the actor shows no emotion. In Stanislavski, the tense is more sadness and calm. She is in sorrow and shows. The emotion is more shown in Stanislavski. The emotion is very sad and grief in Stanislavski. In Brecht, the emotion is more confusing and unknown. The atmosphere is very different. In Brecht, the emotion truly causes the atmosphere. The emotion is grief in Stanislavski’s due to the darkness of the lights, the dark colors of the set, the reactions she has to the objects in the bag,how slow she is going through the bag and the way she sings the song at the end. The emotion in Brecht the numbness is the emotion due to the natural light from the everyday lights, the simpleness to how she goes through the things in the bag, and the way she sings the song at the end. The meaning is very different too. Stanislavski’s was how grief is hard to handle. Also the process of grief is very slow and long. In Brecht’s it is not clear. I assume it is also how grief is very hard.
