Good evening folks! I thought I should update my blog seeing as though this stupid thing keeps a track of when you post things… it was so much easier when you could make up the dates yourself… *cough*who said that…what…?
 Anyways - yesturday we had to recap what we were doing in class from about 6 days ago - I can’t remember what i did 6 hours ago let alone 6 days ago! But i believe we revisited our 5 tableaux scenes, which grew gradually as another element of Epic theatre was added to it. I like what our group has - but i definately agreed it lacked fluency. But i believe if it was more rehearsed we would have made it flowed better. I’m really liking working with my group - not having worked with them before it’s a good opportunity to see how they learn and what ideas they have. Which brings me to todays lesson…
We spent our double lesson today in our groups, first brainstorming ideas, themes, possible characters and music styles for our ensemble piece, and the second half of the lesson was spent researching. I love what our group came up with today. Some important questions were raised such as what musical influences helped to shape society today, what historical events were taking place at the time a particular music style came out, as well as what different music styles there are.
I‘m really looking forward to really get my teeth stuck into the historical side of things in particular, not so much the music but what was happening at the time and the social norms that contribute to the music being how it was. This topic is huge but at the same time so broad - so many possible things to look at.
Peace out. Ash xoxo

i do not like green eggs and ham i do not like them sam i am… o I feel so good I worked that out, at first I just thought you had a bunch odd capital letters in your blog. Thanx for the comment, I appreciate it alot… I’m not sure how seriously I take what I write, but since u and Clarry have said something about it, I’ve noticed it how I’ve been talking myself down lately… I shouldn’t do it, it’s like a black hole and occasionally I get sucked into it. At the moment I’m dragging myself out, thanks 4 helping me out. I also thought I’d point out that we have worked together before, unless you weren’t really on earth last year, lol. I like our group as well, I think that we’re all working together really well. Love u ash, Cassy.

Oh yes, this is just another comment to make you feel special… I was wondering, what thoughts were you reading? And who were you referring to when you said that you told ‘them’ you were psychic? But I think we just have this psychic connection anyway. Maybe we should use foil hats in our performance with the radio thing for the neutral fuzzy characters… or something else. We could also have a narrator and the fuzzy characters go back and forward in time. And another idea I’ve had with writing this comment is that we could have a beep sound in it somewhere were one of the fuzzy character gets a call on the mobile, and the bep sound happens like when the mobile gets to close to the speaker or the radio. Yeh, that’s a darn good comment.
