Silent Monologue Assignment: Character Analysis

My basic character for the silent monologue assignment will be based off a middle-aged, but experienced surgeon. She will be in her mid-30s, just beginning to feel comfortable in the surgery room. She is just reaching the state where she is beginning to feel confident about her abilities in the surgery room and she is expanding her scale as a doctor, a surgeon, and a hero. She wants to be able to save lives of those in need, and give families that may have been stricken with sickness, something to be grateful about. She wants to be able to help those who need it, and in the process help herself become a better person. At the beginning of the performance, she is anxious to start the surgery procedure that must be performed to save a young child's life. She is taking deep breaths and trying to look happy as she preps for the job. She has spent her whole life aiming towards becoming a surgeon. And now that she has achieved her goal, and has just started to gain respect among her fellow surgeons, she does not want to mess anything up. She believes she must put absolutely two hundred percent of her effort into every surgery, and she hopes that everything for the rest of her career will run smoothly. She will try to make everything work.
