Kratos - Boy

About this scene

Kratos - Boy is a single-voice monologue in the register of a man who has spent his whole life refusing to feel, finally failing at it. The trick of the pack is the closing line — three words that reframe every line that came before. Players who try to over-act the closing line lose coverage; the line works best delivered like a private admission. Most players land the rhythm on the second or third pass.
