Larry…. you did it again, what are you doing to us? you tried to confuss us again. :S

Any way, yesterday was hard, why you ask? Of cause it was hot and it was hard for us to constrict the exerise. Some of the actors did not understand the rhythem. It took a while to get the idea of the pratice. Then we started the big fish-small fish again, the actors began to handle the concept of the game and they have improve it but still needs to improve.

After the break, we continue on the brain concept, then we had an idea about body and mind. So one actor been as a mind and other the body… a few of them are good…. but still didn’t like that idea. I was hoping to put in the 10 anniversity theme play… however, it could corparated as somethin sybalising to it. And mind you, my ideas went wild and i have told Larry with ideas and he thought they are not bad ideas.

Any way, i have to go and trying to cool from the crazy hot weather.

Ciao

This is Alex bloging… - big fish… small fish?!?

Big fish… small fish?!? You are confussing us Larry!!! :/ :P On that last Wedenseday, we did the quick response game called “big fish, small fish”. This game goes like this; it starts off with big fish but we have to do with the opposite to small fish. Then continue with big fish. And we have to do the actions too. So If was to say big fish, i have to do the action with small fish.

Unfortunately… we did not do very well in the end. So Larry continue with the naming game as from last week but this week was food. Next week, we will do the animinals.

After the break, Larry asked us about life in the work area. I thought that we meant to do other issues, so discussed how it like to work in the workshop, or it isn’t enough money to earn a week and etc. Also what is like to live in the hostels in the dark side. In the end, Larry asked about the actaul disability in general and that if a normal person had an accident. Then, Larry give us some of educational story about the brian. What i have learnt was that the brian is actually fat?

After that, Larry asked us to do the scene of the brian from normal to damaged brian. I thought it went well then.

Now, I have to sign off now till next week.

Caio.

This is Alex bloging… - the first day of drama.

Well….. last night was interesting, why? well, Jo is not longer with us for a whole  But with chaos from one end to other. Some of the peolple had ideas for this year….. i said to myself, “o my goodness…. have they got ideas?“. It was unfortunate for them to lose her, but she will be droping by time to time.

Our director is Larry Boyd that is also the Artistic Director for the Company. Some of the group did not wish to read the script or let Larry read the line at the background at the show. Now, he will do as Jo do other the years, no scripts, no themes doings and no sharpirians plays for a whole. So he let the group tell what they would like to do for this year.

The group had ideas that they would like to make a celebration theme for our 10 anniversity. So my idea is to make a documentary film like or make interview how it started til last year. Also i asked the group which ones are their favorite scene or play. So the ideas went well and the ideas went one thing to 20 things at once. And poor Larry couldn’t keep up with the group with their ideas.

Whole we giving ideas, Larry stop for a moment and he told the group that they have been improve so well in the past and improved for over the years now. I have also told Larry about that too. 

Before i end, we wish to welcome our new 2 members, their names are, Adrian and Aliesin. They are from other groups with same company.

This is it for the momenent, and stay tune for the audition for the World Congress of IDEA in Hong Kong in 3 weeks.
