We had a silly warm up, flopping our bodies all over the place. Getting excited. We didn't get to play any games BUT
Wooohooo we finally got to do stage fighting!! - pulling hair - slapping - punching - falling.
Oh how fun it is to pretend hurt somebody. I like how the slap/punch worked. The first actor turns their back to the audience (victim) while the second actor (aggressor) comes in and does an over accentuated slap- 75% slower than usual. The first actor has their hand out so that they can make contact and the loud noise will pop. The noise the sound makes is called the knapp.
To fall, you needed to cross your back foot across your ankle and basically just slip down to the floor.
One thing that I found interesting about the hair pulling was that it was actually the one who was getting their hair pulled in charge. They (the victim) directed where the puller would go. Who knew?
Anyway, besides that...
We wrote our last quiz on theatre design and talked a bit about our projects for next class. Now the brainstorming begins for our final project. Shall be fun! It will be neat to create something with the rest of the group members, who knows what they all have in mind? Next week we get to do a bit of a rehearsal four our projects.
Note to self: ADD to other pages!
