Journal entry: 6
Today is December 5th and this is my 6th blog post. It has been quite long that I haven’t really updated my blog. In these couple of weeks we have managed to do a lot new things even though we had such a long break thanks to the scarc.
Form me this
couple of weeks of theatre classes have been the best.
We started with our presentation on the collaborative
theatre company we were each given some company to present on. This was
supposed to do done long time back but due to the heavy schedule we had to
shift it. Every body presented their
assigned theatre company and had done a great job. This collaborative theatre
presentation definitely helped us get better ideas and understand of how
different Theatre Company’s work.
Before the scarc
holiday we were assigned to read a chapter about realism. After reading it I
really understood the concept and got a better understanding about theatre. We
also had a quiz on it.
We have also
began our collaborative project where we in a group of 3 to 5 make our own
play. The first day we were suppose to go around the class and talk about our
skills, experiences so we would decide who would fit best in our group. In my group I have Divina, Sadish, Kashyap
and myself. I am looking forward to have a great time and preform a well.
Firstly as all of us had brought our stimulus we shared and talked about it. We
as a group finally selected our stimulus, which is song - give me love by Ed
shreen.
We then researched
about our stimulus, shared it with our group members. We came up with different ideas and exercises
that would help to achieve a better performance. We talked about our target
audience and our intentions for the play. It quite confusing for us as we
couldn’t really decide who are target audience was. We finally decided that our
target audience would be teenagers and young adults.
After the entire
thing was decided we started to explore our exercises. We started by discussing
what we would do in our paly and what was our theme.
We then started by doing our exercise, which was the mirror
exercise.
We have not
completely decided what are we exactly going to do but we are coming up with
great ideas. I love this project as we all are getting to share our ideas with
my group and preform our own theatre.
I hope all of us
do a great job and also have a great time working on this project.
