The Historian
You will be in charge of making sure the scene is historically accurate. You will have to work closely with the Linguist.
Read through the websites listed for your time period carefully. You should be especially familiar with the history and culture of your era. During the rewriting of your scene it will be your duty to help decide which two opposing groups from the era you researched will be incorporated into the script.
Also, you will be responsible for writing an introduction to the script, which explains the historical context of the scene (a background to the era you chose). This should be one paragraph long. It should be read at the beginning of your recording.
WHAT YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR: The introduction to the script (you will also give this introduction when you perform).
