Today, the guys from turn-around hosted a different game which goes towards their Arts award. This was very fun as we were all very supportive and enthusiastic, however there was some loss of focus throughout the games. It was nice for the rolls to change as the BRIT people usually hosted the games and so it was nice to see a bit of a difference.
We then moved on to the acting scenes, where there were three separate groups. Two groups focused on real life situations (one from turn around, one from BRIT) and this was very effective as we were seeing it in a theatrical interpretation. The group that i am in, i believe it is very brave that the material we have is being expressed; i really think it will open people's eyes and help them to understand more about how words and bullying can effect people and families. Honestly, our group did lose a lot of focus (partly because we were missing the person we needed most) but i do think there should have been more focus on such a serious situation. Will (unintentionally) brought some Brecht style theatre into our piece, where he wanted to include signs, multi-role characters and make something serious appear comical. He was very happy finding out that his ideas were Brecht!
