UAL Level 2 Week 20

Monday 6th March

Blog Session:

• Worked on our blogs and spoke about the new assignment.

Acting Lesson:

• In this lesson we said our ideas for the #weareallimmigrants performance pieces that we had come up with in our separate groups. We the started to run through the whole performance putting which bits where, for example the beginning where Bruno is sitting in the chair going through all the myths about immigration, then moving onto the next part where everyone sings " Ring a Ring O' Roses".

Tuesday 7th March

Acting Lesson:

In this lesson we spoke about the monologues and stimulus that we had chosen for our audition pieces if we decided to progress onto Level 3 next year. One of my monologues that I had chosen was from a play called Dreams in Captivity written by Gabriel Davis and the other was The Dream Play by August Strindberg.

Movement Lesson:

Instead of having a Movement Lesson we had to practice our audition pieces for the start of the new personal projects. The 2 pieces that I decided to put forward for audition are:

• Dreams in Captivity by Gabriel Davis
• The Dream Play by August Strindberg

Production Lesson:

• In this lesson we wrote about the pieces we had just performed. We had to give an insight to why we chose the pieces and also give a description of what it is about and the implications of the piece.

Wednesday (No Lesson)

Thursday 9th March

Acting Lesson:

• In this lesson we performed our initial ideas that we had created in our groups for our #weareallimmigrants piece. We did this so that people would have general knowledge on what scenes had been created, the characters that we would need, to see if they all fit in with the idea of immigration and to see if they would work in the scene order throughout the production, for example what scenes would go before what and so forth.

Friday 10th March

Blog Session:

Worked on our blogs.

Acting Lesson:

• In this lesson we watched a devised piece from people in my class such as Bruno, Nerissa and Makenzie, their piece was about an American immigrant who for injury reason had been sent to a hospital in England to be treated for a gunshot wound he received in the army. After watching their scene multiple times and giving feedback on multiple accounts it did not leave the rest of the class anytime to perform the pieces that my group or the other groups had come up with.
