The given circumstances in acting are what the author or playwright have given you as an actor to work with in terms of where you are, who you are, what you are doing, and why you are doing it. For example, your character profile at the beginning of the play (where they list the characters) will tell you something about your character. In "The beauty queen of leenane" by martin McDonagh, there is quite extensive character notes. These character notes are your Characters "Given circumstances." The setting, an old cottage in county leenane are your given circumstances for WHERE you ARE. Sometimes, however, the playwright may give you no in-depth information about your character, as in Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot, where all he gives in the character section is "Estragon, a tramp." All you know is that Estragon is a tramp. However, throughout the play, you find out pieces of history, and this is another source of GIVEN CIRCUMSTANCES. As either Stanislavsky or Strasberg once said ( I don't have my notebook on me this instant) "sometimes the inspiration for your character may not be obvious, but hidden within the line of someone else's character"Simply put, the given circumstances are whatever you are given to work with, be it pieces of history, emotion, costumes, settings, character relationships.
They are not given in the script.
A sample script of a beauty pageant would include an opening dialogue by the emcee of the pageant. The script would also include what the contestants would be competing in such as formal dress, swimsuit, and talent competitions.
In drama, the term "given circumstance" refers to the specific conditions, context, and details surrounding a character's situation within a play. These include elements like time, place, socio-economic status, relationships, and historical context that influence the character's actions and motivations. Understanding the given circumstances helps actors and directors interpret the script more deeply and informs character development and interactions. Ultimately, they set the stage for the narrative and emotional dynamics of the performance.

Given circumstances is a term used when writing a story or a book. Under any given circumstances refers to in what position the character is in. If there is something blocking what he wants, that would be a given circumstance. This term can also be used outside of the writing world. It means the same thing as for the character except that the conditions someone or something is in would apply to their real position or condition. Drama Terminology: Given Circumstances are what are provided to you by the author/playwright in the context of the script. This is used to allow the actor to peform the character the required way. Given Circumstances include: Place (where the scene takes place) Sensory Elements (heat, cold, looking out a window, physical handicaps, etc.) Relationships (with other characters and to the "event" of the scene) Period (Specific choices regarding the period of the play)
