Mama is the head of the household. Physically I see her as a a very strong individual. Strength that you can see on her face. I see her standing maybe at 5'4, 154lbs. Her sense of style comes from old fashion, very classic taste, as per the style in her living room. The sofa that was once very high fashion, but was worn out from the usual wear and tear. She's very classic, and very conservative.
I have chosen Alfre Woodward to play the character of Lena Younger.
Alfre Woodward
Alfre Woodward is the perfect actress to play Mama. She has a very warm, motherly appearance. She's one of the top African American actress' of our time. She made so many memorable films. For the role of Mama, she would take this character to another level. I portray her as Camille Wright in Love and Basketball, very forward, straight to the point personality. She was a strong woman that knew what she wanted. This co insides with Mama's part in the play when she knew she wanted a house for her family, no matter what. Perfect relations, makes her the perfect actress for this part.
