Devising Theatre - Sharon

09/09/14




We started the lesson walking around the room with intension, changing directions and pace. This gave the room full focus to get into task.
Our task began when Sharon paired us up with a class peer; we had to speak about our holidays then group with another pair and tell each others holiday experiences.
I worked with Killah, Sharnae and Andrea. we then had to make a short scene demonstrating each of our holidays combined or one persons, our decision was to "mix it up"


After Lunch we walked around the room with intension and pace again to gain focus, Sharon then asked us to walk around the room as a 'police man' , 'lady of the night' , 'priest' and a 'fisherman'.
labelling them as our own stereo types. we then grouped up into fours and created a scene to include all characters meeting. I worked with Tutu, Eliot and Wendy.
our scene included the lonely fisherman arranging a date with the lady of the night, then the priest witnessing this crime to god and of course preaching, kicking up noise the policeman is called arresting the priest and advising the lady of the night to go home. we performed this in front of the new level 2s.


I think the scene could have been improved with more time, due to the short space of time we had to create and develop the scene it was a bit 'rough around the edges' and could have done with more planning and depth.
