Gender Inequality: 'The Double Standard' Performance...

Yesterday we spent the double finalizing our Brechtian piece. Mr Brown suggested we use pieces of paper with the audience so that they feel as though they have a say in the outcome of the piece. Therefore we gave out numbers 1,2 and 3 on small bit of paper and at the end asked the audience about which scenario they felt most comfortable with. Mr Brown also suggested that we create gestus by having Hannah and I put on stereotypical blonde American bimbo accents/attitude. The performance today went well as we were working in a classroom and so we had to work around the small 'stage space.' We also chose to sit through the year eleven's entry to class and the first performance in character which meant that Hannah and I were constantly conversing in our accents. We saved seats by sitting in them to begin with and from there we mingled with the students and probably intimidated them a lot!
