LOOKIT ME! I'M RELEVANT! (Seriously. Read this.)

Today at our meeting, some concerns arose about unity of thought, theme and/or motif between groups, as we would need to solidify our final project as a whole, class piece. Besides having an open discussion in our next class, we were hoping to hear some ideas from everyone here, on the blog, about things you feel could be pervasive throughout the whole piece, that we could discuss upon meeting.

Currently we do have several solid, (mostly) definite set pieces, (the desk and the trunk,) but besides these, what other things do you think might serve to anchor our pieces together? Concrete real objects? Shared themes? Repeated movements or sounds throughout?

We'd like this post to encourage interaction betweens the groups and the sharing of ideas so that we don't become totally separated.

PS: Is everyone using the umbrellas in their piece? We are currently having difficulty working them in...

  1. One idea that cropped up that could be pervasive would be a shared collection of liquor bottles, wine bottles...a pooling of our recyclables, basically.

    Also, our piece is theoretically going to be set in a psych ward, with everyone wearing (cheap) scrubs. Does anyone else think this thematic setting would jive with their own?

  2. Hey Audrey.
    At the moment we will not be using umbrellas in the "Tell-Tale Heart" (it doesn't really fit with the style our part)

  3. Interesting. I definitely think this is useful. One idea our group had was to have some of us made up like those European statue-actors! Or, simply, to just have some sort of obscure makeup.
