Life is dull, only drama is colourful.

Today in drama class, we sat in a circle and gave each other feedback on our performances.
All my fellow classmates are either doing textwork or undecided on what to do.
I gave a report on my performance, the themes and the concept. It was met with a good response from my classmates and they said it seemed sound. The symbol of the toy car that I used in my performance was strong and they said it sounded interesting.
With this analysis, I can safely write my script draft one for Mrs. Kamal to see. This boosted my morale and confidence in my devising skills and encouraged me to try my best with this idea.
I felt this part of the module is key in our development as by talking through our performances, we are able to think through what we like and what we wanted to perform and hence become able to clarify our thoughts about the performance itself. This is important as the feedback from our fellow classmates is ideal as they would be looking at it, not from the perspective of an actor but of an audience member. They will hence be able to tell you what is interesting and what is not interesting to see on stage.
Hence I feel that this lesson was very successful in helping me to think about my concept. Honestly, I never felt more clear about my idea than when i explained it to the class. This enabled me to think through my idea and clarify my own thoughts on the spot. This was a very worthwhile activity for me to invest my time in and i certainly benefitted from it.
