We're trying out something new here. In an effort to better record our group's progress we will post more regularly than is required for IB process reflections. This week we have spent both our work days experimenting with a variety of movement, improv and discussion activities to explore which concepts and moments we want to further develop. On Tuesday, I tried out being the writer and recorded scene elements while the rest of the group did improv based on the themes we had previously established. Today I felt we accomplished a bit more. We started out with a theater game to loosen up and explore the space, something we have decided we always want to be conscious of. Then we took turns directing some moments, including several where we shaped the bodies of the rest of the group into mundane scenes from our lives. We also tried out impersonations of each other, exploring the themes of identity and mirrors. I feel like we need to start focusing our ideas a bit more in the next few work days, but we're not to the stage yet where we have to throw anything out. More to come...
