Homeless Questionnaire Sheets

Below are the questionnaire sheets I have created to be filled out by the homeless man/support worker throughout my interview sequence. They are based on the questions asked at the Night Shelter where I used to work and I have tried to make them look as real as possible. The questions form the fundamental elements of my script for this scene and thrrough the use of the questionnaire, my actors can taylor their lines if they need to. Mike, the actor playing the 'Homeless Man', has already made a few suggestions as to how he could rephrase certain lines to make them seem slightly more natural which I am very open to. Having the questionnaires in front of the actors as a prop in this scene also gives them both a guideline if they forget a line.
I might ask both actors to go through the scene without using their scripted lines, just imagining they are actually in that scenario filling out the questionnaire. I feel this would be beneficial to both myself as director and my two actors.
