For the past few weeks my group and I have been create by mental act a piece of theatre around the subject of war. Our maestro piece was about the effects of war on a small Yorkshire community. It involved a local woman fall in love with the enemy, a German spy. It illustrated the betrayal surrounded by friends, emotions and how current affairs can induce decisions. This was influenced by a number of aspects.
In exploring a number of wartime props we got a toil whatsoever sense of the type of society during wartime. One feature we picked up on was that there was very little to go around, and that the few possessions they had were very precious. For example Maureen, the grammatical case I acted, stayed in the aforesaid(prenominal) smart clothes throughout the play, unlike the others who changed at least(prenominal) once. We saw this as her trying to cling onto what she had lost, luxuries and comfort.
To try and deliver the goods an awareness of character, we looked at a play called Killed by capital of Serbia and Montenegro T.I.E. The types of characters in the play were quite an stereotypical. The character I played, Elsie, was quite a badly, stubborn woman, total of opinions and carried a sad and direful history. This was mirrored by May, a young woman, deeply in love and with her whole life ahead of her.
We used some of the ideas in the play when devising our own piece of theater. We site our play in Yorkshire, like Killed and I molded my character Maureen on Elsie, taking on quite a hard front, a sad history and a strong Yorkshire accent. A thin line between love and hate was distinct from Killed because ours was more light-hearted, it didnt have as many flashbacks and tended to be condition around the local shop.
