MATT
Character: Matt
New spin on: Pig Pen
On Character: Matt is a complex character. At times he is charming and attention seeking, then transitions to an aggressive and forward individual. The audience soon learns his behavior stems from insecurities and the fear of being judged by peers.
On your own high school life: Adolescence is a time for self exploration and people utilize different outlets to find their identity. In high school, I got myself into a lot of trouble by being a jokester via pranks or just bad ideas. Basically I did anything to get a rise out of people. In retrospect, it's clear that I did these things to fit in and to get attention and to an extent, it worked. In that sense, I can relate to Matt. We acted out and made decisions based on the desire to be liked.
