WEDNESDAY 20TH NOVEMBER

In today's lesson we went over our whole devised piece and performed it to our drama teacher. He then gave us some constructive criticism on ways we can improve. For example he suggested that we use the skills we learnt from Georgina Lamb (Theatre de complicite) in our devised piece. I thought this would be a good idea for the witches scenes, when we each change from Lady Macbeth to a witch. I thought that we could use the transitions that Georgina showed us. He also mentioned that we should hand out flyers at the beginning of the show to establish that we are in fact in politics. The flyers would be saying things such as 'Vote for Macbeth' or 'Macbeth for MP', and this will be keeping in with one of our practitioners which is Brecht, ensuring that the audience know that the play is set in modern day politics.
