In our lesson today we worked on our experimental pieces of 20 minuets to then be able to perform them on loop to the class after we had done this the class gave feed back on what we had done my feed back was positive and constructive the class really responded well to the concept and idea of my piece but they were my concerned about the execution and where my piece could go, e.g. Logistics would the audience know there role so I had to think of a way of making it apparent that audiences role is to throw paint at me the paint to symbolise emotion, but i realised that this was not practical so made the decision to do this my self and cover up the pots so i did not know what colour i was putting on my self i thought this would be more practical.

What does it say to an audience so far? 

Our group piece says many things to the audience it speaks about nature Vs nurture and about the person them selfs, the start of the piece is focused on the scientists and the questions they are asking this part of the piece addresses real questions and discussions being had by scientists but it also de-humanises the individual and asks questions as a whole which then contradicts the next sequence which is the fertilisation part, where you see each sperm as a human and that they all have the potential for life but some slowly die and only one makes it to the egg this shows how delicate the human life is and is there to show the nature side to the argument. through out the piece the audience and constantly reminded of the topic of NvN and that is apparent throughout the sequences, so it says to the audience that there are many factors that play into why someone is they way they are.

What is your favourite moment of the piece so far and why?
My favourite section in the piece is the part when we are some of us are under the sheets and it is suppose to represent the womb i think its a really beautiful section and done very elegantly with the lights and it just a very creative and visually exciting way of showing the audience something.

How is it experimental? 
it is experimental way of creating theatre because it does not  follow convention and uses physical theatre and surrealism to tell a story. An example is when some of us become sperm with tights over our heads this is surreal and experimental.
