Alannah's workshop - Thursday 22nd Sept

Alannah's main concept/inspiration was originally a postcard - "love is what you want".
She then changed the main focus of her workshop - inspired from David's workshop - based on the characters generated from that.

Warm up - Sound and movements / copy action and vocal range of A-Z

"The Beauty Shop" - 3 mins improv with set characters:
  • The waxer
  • model to be waxed
  • chatty manicurist
  • grumpy mother
  • agitated child
  • (receptionist)
Hotseating - in pairs using the above characters

Improvisation - using the same characters (apart from changing the child to a business woman), set in staffroom of beauty shop / waiting room

Freeze frames - based on each improv above.

Consider how these characters could be taken out of this situation and developed? Did any story lines interest you?
