I think that one of our group's strengths was our use of props. We used pencils, paper, a notebook(for Lily's sign), and some of us even used our own shoes(Jordan). Even though they are small, these props, I think, helped to set the scene well. The pencils and paper helped the scene to have a classroom-type vibe. Also, Hannah used one of the pencils to break it and throw it, which I think contributed to the comedy theme and her character's personality. Lily's sign and Jordan using his shoes really just made the scene a lot more funny. I also think they all did a really great job of improvising. I think this because an example is how Jordan used his shoes, and Hannah broke the pencil. They both improvised this, and by doing that, they made it seem a little more natural. But it wasn't just them; everybody helped to make the scene be more natural. As the director I couldn't tell them the exact movements and what to do with their parts, and they did a great job of i...

The play I watched recently is called, "The truth about being Earnest". By watching this play, I could tell that the director's vision really helped develop the characters to a point where the audience could differentiate between them really well. They director gave each character different sections that brought out the character's personality. The director also helped create the different relationships between the characters. Such as how one could tell that the two main characters were from the same family, or that the two main female characters didn't know eachother, but became friends in a certain scene. One actor that I thought did really well in their acting was the role played by Amelia. Even though the director's version of the diologue might have helped with this, she really showed her character's personality. It was like she took on this character as her own self, and she did it really well. Another character that I think acted really well was on...

Jess is the director Instead of taking place in an office, it will take place in a classroom Slightly more juvenile Teenagers Lily contributed the idea for her to hold up a notebook with words on it to show the teacher in the scene As we practised, the group make it their own Kylie acted extra mad when the students talked when asked not to Jeff leaned forward a lot in his seat when watching the character open the wrapper, and he also exaggerated when he shushed Brooklyn Jordan made his part more natural by adding a little of his own dialogue when talking to the teacher near the end of the scene All of the group adopted their roles well like stated above which contributed to the comedy aspect Brooklyn is casted as Jamie(jim) Jordan is casted as Kevin Hannah is casted as (Dwight) Jeff is casted as Andy Lily is casted as the person eating through the window Kylie is casted as the teacher The director placed the characters in a specific ord...

1. The scene in The Office where they are trying to stay silent, but then Kevin Malone breaks the silence. 2. It will have 4 characters. They would be Jim Halpert, Kevin Malone, Dwight Shrute, and Andy Bernard, but we could switch up the roles. 3. I would make it unique by making it funny and even turn the racoon into an actual character.  4. It could be a good choice for the class because we could use multiple actors. It would be good for the space because it takes place in an office and we could use the tables and chairs to set the scene, and spread out the people a little bit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YTG9vTkhGs
