First five lines

In today's lesson we took the first five lines in the play and split up into groups of six. The lines were:

Imagine

You wake up

You open your eyes

Any you're like that

Where am I?

Using these lines and the three exercises we did in todays lesson (fishers, milling, waking up) we had to make a beginning for the play in the theatrical configuration, thrust.

We then had to perform ours to the rest of the class and sir chose the one he wanted to use for the beginning of the play. The group I was in was the one that was chosen.

Charlie and I then became directors and had to teach the rest of the class how to perform it. A few bits we had to change because there was so many of us but it looked really good.(The Physical script link explains what it is.)

I really enjoyed the lesson because everyone got to put something into the performance so its not just one person directing, everyone has an input. The beginning involves changes in energy, different voice levels and lots of different movement. I also enjoyed being a director however sometimes people didn't listen which was frustrating and something our class needs to improve on.
