You tube clip- Glee (drunk episode)

In the series Glee the performance and level of acting is always at its best.

The expressions that they use always show exactly what emotion they are trying to get across. For example in the episode where they become very drunk therefore the actors have to act drunk.

When they are all dancing their moves are over exaggerated to get across that they are drunk. The volumes of their voice become very loud talking to each other as if they can’t hear one another. When Santana is shouting at her boyfriend, she is acting as the weepy hysterical drunk. Therefore to convey this she has her eyes closed her head is tilted up to Sam and her facial expressions are very wide as are her hand gestures. This also applies to Lauren and Quinn who are ‘the angry girl drunks’ therefore when they are mouthing off to Pukk they make sure to be up in his face and come across very intimidating. And as for Mercedes and Tina who are meant to be the ‘happy drunks’ they are sat on the sofa laughing all while they amusingly hit each other as people do sometimes when they are in hysterical laughter, and both have their eyes closed and lean forward and back to make sure they convey their happiness towards the audience properly.

Acting drunk can be  hard task however I believe that the Glee cast have mastered it exceptionally and each of them bring an individual quality and amusement to the audience.
