If I were directing Woyzeck and could arrange the scenes in any particular order, I would start with scene 14 of the first act. In this scene the girls ask Marie to sing with them but she refuses. Then the grandmother tells a story; "Once upon a time there was a poor child, without a father and without a mother, everything was dead (105)." The classic phrase “Once upon a time” serves as a beautiful introduction to the piece and begins the work from a place of innocence. That said, there is also an inherent darkness to Grandma's story. The lonely child mirrors Woyzeck and his struggle for existence in a lifeless world. After this scene, I would go to act four, scene one: Woyzeck tells Andres about a vision. Woyzeck says that "a fire rages around the sky and there comes a noise like trumpets (94)". This vision leads the audience to understand the discomfort present in Woyeck's inner thoughts. Furthermore, this scene establishes the importance of Woyzeck and his psyche at the beginning of the play. There is a sense of danger and mystery present in the scene which provides a structure for the rest of the scenes to build from (in other words this scene acts as an inciting incident). Next, I would have Act 4 Scene 8 where Woyzeck describes his vision to the doctor. The doctor ends up ridiculing Woyzeck for peeing on the street, questioning his eyesight and asking him if he has eaten his daily dose of peas. This scene would logically come next because it serves as Woyzeck's distorted diagnosis. This scene exemplifies the hostile relationship that exists between the doctor and Woyzeck and escapes the theme of dehumanization present throughout the play. After this scene, I would insert scenes two and three into act four. In the fourth act Sc...... half of the sheet ......t draft). This section reaches the climax of the entire show where Woyzeck ends up stabbing Marie. It is important that the scene comes towards the end of the show. Not just for logical purposes, but at this point the audience has witnessed Woyzeck's journey and understanding of what brought Woyzeck to this point of madness. The denunciation occurs with Act Three, Scenes One and Two. The professor reaffirms the existence of Woyzeck's trap, but continues to advise Woyzeck to eat his peas. Eventually Woyzeck ends up dying in the pond. Woyzeck dies due to the conditions in which he was placed; this story brings to the forefront the idea of ​​the power of nature and how it can shape a person. Woyzeck was a person who had very little control and often philosophized in an attempt to understand his own existence. This story introduces the idea of ​​dehumanization and how it can kill the human spirit.
