Miss Ratched - a monster behind a mask

Summary/Abstract: The actor goes through a particular method applicable in the construction of the role. Miss Ratched is the antagonist of Ken Kesey's novel, Cuckoo's Nest. While building this character, who on the surface seems to be very composed, powerful and controlled, while on the inside has a chaos roaming around, I have taken into account everything that she hides on the inside, everything hidden behind the mask, everything that turns her into a cruel person. Miss Ratched is the head nurse of the psychiatric clinic Salem State, where she exercises full authority among patients by prescribing their meds and deciding on their privileges, privileges that she is allowed to leave them without in case of misbehavior.
