This was our first show we performed together as a class for our spooky stimulus unit. The story is based around a haunted mental asylum which is split into sections showing different varieties of acting, dancing, singing and magic. It was wrote by one of my fellow classmates, Jack Waterman who also starred in the show as Ringo, the comedic caretaker who links the sections together to make them work with the main storyline. I performed my section with Courtney Hogbin and our storyline for our performance was about a little girl who gets possessed by her toy puppet. Throughout rehearsals, we changed parts we thought wouldn't work and added and developed parts what would make it a workable idea for Jack's script and also to make it understandable and appealing to the audience. We managed to keep the theme of possessed puppet/doll from the start of the process.
Another section I was involved in this performance was 'Thriller' which was an upbeat dance piece to end the show. I've had experience of dance in my childhood but quit a long time before starting the performing arts course so it was nice to be up and dancing again. This was the first dance performance I performed with my classmates and since this, my skills have improved and they are continuing to do so.
A recording of the show is split into two parts and is currently on the college YouTube which I will place below:
