Performance workshop
This week we focused on our entrance to the stage as we need
to go on to the stage in a sack shape. So we figured out that we thought about
how the sack would move on the back of someone. We thought about bobbing up and down which
would give the effect that we were on Santa’s
back, we need to get in are starting positions which we start our scene in. so
we ask our teacher and she said we could move and go under and over each other
which will hopeful make the audiences see the sack shape we are trying to creative. I think we need to work
on our ending, and try and figure out how we are doing to we are going to all
get back in the sack and I was thinking
that maybe we would sing a song (which was molly’s idea) and say that action
man needs to go in first so he doesn’t get lost again. Each one of us would go
in to the sack like in the sound of music song “so long farewell” and we would
learn the dance and the baby would go last. We also start to learn the end of
the poem in storytelling, and workout how we were going to set it out of stage,
our teacher Emma which we would come on in groups and watch Santa fly off as
with looking in pure wonder. We would
join in reading the poem at different times this is the order it goes in mice, reindeer,
children, toys. We were put in to groups and ask to make a cluster of different
levels and shapes.
I really feel this show is coming together; I need to be more
confidence with saying the poem which I think I can do which I have learnt it. I
think I give lots of ideas and help with other people understanding if they are
confused about how we should stand or do.
Theatre for Children
We carried
on with our dance piece and we brought in out PJ so we could take pictures and
see if we would do the moves in our PJ. After last week went we had to walk
round in 8 steps and do a greeting to another person we find it hard to find
someone so this week we choose 3 people that we would greet too and it was so
much easier because we were going somewhere on stage, last time I felt we were
just walking and seeing where we would end up and half the time we wouldn’t have
any one to greet.
I felt this
week most of the class were focus and we got quite a bit of work done than last
week. I think next time we should aim to complete the dance so the following
weeks we can touch up of different sections.
