Double Drama - 14th October 2014

We looked at lifts and cool lifts we can try in ‘Alice in Wonderland’, I feel that as a group we trust each other and get along with each other but we need to trust that we can do lifts and stuff safely so we can incorporate them into performances. I feel that if we work together to improve our strength, at the same time we will get a better understanding of what each of us can do so we can be more confident when we do lifts and stuff. We also looked at a Japanese performance which was disturbing yet showed the core strength that the performer had and the hard work he put into it, we then saw another performance where a man walked barefoot up and down this stage that was covered in broken glass and nails and stuff so his feet were being cut up and he was bleeding, it was supposed to represent the struggle we go through in life. I’m not sure about the glass walkway thing but the core strength thing (very Martha Graham) we could use in our performance.
