Thursday 2nd March
In Drama we continued on our #immigrants project where we were given a sheet which had small improvisional pieces, my group and I picked with the story of a Romanian women named Alexa where she gets rejected from taking a loan from the bank as well as a form from a GP's office. The scene begins with Alexa (played by me) walking into the bank and 2 members of the public making racist remarks towards her nationality behind her back, the bank manager finally calls Alexa in for a meeting which then outrages the other members of public as they apparently have been waiting for longer. Once Alexa goes into the room with the Manager he asks her questions like her name, age and nationality, this then causes the manager to decline any requests she was willing to make as well as making her leave the room because she came from Romania, Alexa then leaves the bank unwillingly where she then passes the two other members where they then continue to say malicious comments about her, the scene then ends.

To begin our drama lesson in the theatre we started with a warm up game of playing musical statues where the aim was to get us focused for the on going lesson, where we then moved onto doing the bad breath exercise as well the pen in the centre of the room. Next we moved onto continuing our #weareallimmigrants performance, after a couple of run throughs our teacher gave us back some feedback which then helped to improve our play to then make it better.
In Beccas blog lesson we began working on our self publicity posters, I choose to go along the theme of the Wizard of Oz where I will be portraying Dorothy in my audition.
Thursday 23rd March
Our Drama lesson began by us going through some tounge twisters as a warm up for example "Red Lorry, Yellow Lorry", "She Sells SeaShells at the SeaShore " and "Roberta Ran Rings Around the Roman Ruins". Next we went onto doing around 3-5 improve excercises where the opening line had to be " She/he was here last night" my partner and I created scenes where we played sisters and we found out our dad had come back to just get money off our mum and did not bother to see his daughters, after that we watched our groups performances as well as gave them feedback on how to improve for future references.
Friday 24th March
Began catching up on our blogs in beccas lesson next we went on to continue rehearsals for the #weareallimmigrants performance including feedback from not just our teacher but also our peers, due to not that man people attending the lesson we had to feel in for them on their scenes.
