Hey, Bobbie, from the Green Company again, this is my 2nd blog.
On Wednesday we started to get 'Children's Excursion, platform No. 5' up and running by creating our characters for Sarah. Before, however we played a few games like the 'yes and...' game to get us in the right frame of mind to create a character.
Sarah then asked us, after the 3 or 4 games, to sit on our own and close our eyes. She then started to ask us questions about what our character would be like, and obviously, what our character would be called. After this we had to get into pairs and tell the other person about our character then in turn ask them 5 questions about theirs, so we could add more depth to them. We then had to go into different pairs and tell them, again, about our character but add on what we answered to the questions that had been asked before. Then Sarah asked us to tell her about our characters and she would make links between them all, like Katie Hart and Sarah Day's characters were sisters.
I think that if we put as much effort into this, like we did with 'Don't Assume Anything' and 'Comedy of Error's' that it would be just as good, if not better. I reckon that we could, possibly, do this play justice, because it's written for us and we made the characters and we'll know them inside out by the time we get the script. Also it would be nice that some time in the future to see other company's perform it and see how it has got developed.
