This document is a structured character analysis worksheet based on Uta Hagen’s acting methodology. It guides performers through a comprehensive exploration of a character’s identity, environment, motivations, and behavior using the Nine Questions framework. The form prompts detailed responses about who the character is, the time and place of the scene, surrounding circumstances, relationships, objectives, obstacles, and actions.

Students or actors are instructed to provide multiple specific details under each category to encourage depth, realism, and consistency in performance choices. The worksheet also incorporates the concept of the “Moment Before,” helping performers establish emotional and psychological continuity prior to a scene.
