Aristotle’s+Element+-+Diction,Language,+and+Dialogue

=Aristotle’s Element: Diction/Language/Dialogue= The word choices Jose Rivera uses in Marisol is perfect already for our production. We like the fact that the characters speak bluntly and or not afraid to use curse words in order to get to their point. In order to make this show into a musical, the dialogues and overall script has to change in order for the songs to have better rhythm and meter. Besides the Spanish Marisol uses, the show is in English; however, different will have different dialects and accents. -Marisol will speak good English with a mix of a Puerto Rican accent and a New Yorker dialect. This will back up the fact that Marisol is from the Bronx. A good example of Marisol's voice would be Rosie Perez. - Man with Ice Cream, Man with Golf Club, June, and Lenny will have New York dialects as well due to them being from New York as well. A good New Yorker dialect would be Frank Sinatra. -The Angel and the voices who speak to Marisol will speak strongly and be refining with no specific dialect at all. With no specific dialect, the audience will understand she is not from this world at all to have an accent or dialect. -Woman with Furs will speak in a Mid-Atlantic tone, almost making her seem British. We think this dialect will make the audience see her as someone with wealth and high class. A good example would be Kelsey Grammer.
