Punk Rock

We read through the script a couple of times as it is very conversational, also we have had to cut out some of it as it is too inappropriate so we have sorted any problems with cuts. Moving on to setting the first scene we decided that we would have two tables set on our main performance area with lots of chairs round so we can move around, and this way it will look natural and like a realistic library. In the first scene we are introduced to each of the characters, in stages, so it was very important to create the right impression of them when they entered. For Lily and William we needed to create the impression that William is being annoying and overly interested in Lily, the new girl. So we had Freya minding her own business and Tom pestering her from across the table. This sets up the foundation for there relationship, it is clear from the first encounter that William is much more interested in her than she is in him, which we see more later on in the play. Next Cissy and Bennett enter together, Bennett is showing off as usual talking about how he impressed people on the bus. AS soon as Lily is introduced to them she takes the opportunity to move away from William, again showing her wariness of William at the beginning of the play.

As a start I think we are doing well with this play and everyone is enjoying it. As a group I think we work very well together and all have good ideas to put in, which all get listened to. We can work together to improve a scene, taking everyone's ideas on board which is sometimes helpful as you get to hear opinions from people that are watching the scene from a different perspective as not everyone is in every scene.
