This involved an intense brainstorming session where we came up with the final idea. An important part of the decision was when the improvisation would take place. Whether it would be at the end of the piece or far into the future. We made some large improvements to the piece during rehearsals. In the end the main section of the piece was extremely polished and rehearsed which helped us to improvise the other section.
He believed that actors could learn to present their character without trying to ‘become’ their character, unlike Stanislavski, who believed that actors should be able to bring out their character on stage through emotional memory (tapping into past emotions felt). Not only did he want physically capable actors (as the physical demands of acting are significantly high – acting is a sport) but also well-rounded thinkers who were capable of using their bodies to communicate ideas and emotions. Meyerhold also experimented with

In this essay I will explain what the article “Computer Games and Karate: the Arts and Crafts of Today” by Gill Chard has told me about the development of the Occupational Therapy profession. I will then look at an activity that I enjoy and attempt to justify if I agree or disagree with the comments made in the article about the “traditional arts and crafts” and the “arts of today”. In the early days, the focus of Occupational Therapy and the use of occupation as a therapeutic tool of rehabilitation were based mainly on the activities of art and craft such as basket weaving and cord knotting. However, this began to change as the context of occupation changed from the doing of an activity to the occupation of the mind as a meaningful and worthwhile tool to promote health and well being. “Occupational Therapy in the 1930’s meant making something (Hocking 2007); Occupational Therapy today means making something of our time” (Chard 2007) A more holistic approach to patient centred care has evolved with meaningful occupation representing different things to different people.

Lewis tells Justin it wasn’t Doug and it was an accident in fact to have the play continue and protect Doug from any consequences.
Later in the play, the audience is better able to appreciate the emotion and the catastrophe of Elizabeth’s lie to Danforth. When she tells him proctor is not a liar, because of what the audience knows from earlier scenes. We know that Elizabeth never lies; yet she does her thinking that she will save John, but he has already confessed. This moment comes as a huge shock to the audience and is powerful example of the use of dramatic irony. The symbolism of the crucible, which serves as the play’s title, is integral to the play.

Composers uses distinctively visual elements to provoke a specific response from their audience. The visual elements draw the audience to visually and emotionally engage with the texts. This allows us to see or imagine in our own mind what's happening, and get affected by the views of the text, this allows you to remember, and change your own views on those who are isolated or outcasts of society.

Key features of my chosen practitioner and justification for our choice of Ashputtel to illustrate their influence. The Practitioner which my group chose to use as a result of their surrealist and stylized theatrical style was the theatre Company Kneehigh. Kneehigh aim to recreate well known stories and focus on recreating moods, environments and feelings In order to create, as the Artistic director Mike Shepherd put it, “theatre of humanity on an epic and tiny scale”[1]. Kneehigh use many techniques which we felt personally drawn to as actors and wanted to use throughout our piece. They use a mixture of physical theatre, live music, visual imagery and puppetry to reveal different aspects and feelings of characters and situations
