Our final days of class are fast approaching, and with them the presentation of our first devised theater piece. For the most part, we spent the first few weeks planning and discussing possible moments. We've now moved into pretty steady rehearsal, but that's not to say that the creative process is done. I've actually found that some of our best material came from the act of running through what we already had, however rudimentary. One of my favorite pieces developed from about two words into a six person scene where everyone contributes something integral. That last part has actually been one of our greatest challenges. It is often difficult to think of ways to include each group member in some capacity, because each person needs to devise their role to some extent within the universe of another group member's moment. However, I think we've thought of some creative solutions that are representative of the work we've done over the past month.
