Session Notes:
Ran script from Sc8 until end.
Need to develop Sc1-7; more abstract,
Performers to face out/audience more during scenes.
Montano; Candy.
Sc11; three white cloths (acting as handkerchief) and red cloth to cover Desdemona.
After Christmas:
Photo/video evidence
Analyse practitioners, adapt their styles of work to the piece?
Props?
Costume?
Accompaniment?

Session notes:
Recapped beginning; - Altered to fit timing with music - ?v=PsajTfRJ_88 - Audience entrance - Cloth, becomes prop for Sc1?
Script work; - Experimented changing the setting of the play, discussed a gang scenario, pub scenario and school scenario. - Tried out the school scenario, found that by doing this we had to adjust the some of the script -> not sure about this...
IDEAS.
“Reversi”
• Board game with White and black pieces.
• I vs O.
• Change colour depending on what they(characters) believe.
• Reacuring scene?
• During current scenes? Freeze frames?
Friday 18th November.
Session notes;
Today’s session was the first one back from half-term break, and so to begin with recapped Sc.10 and the opening.
Sc.10; I orders R to kill C, + abstract movement.
Opening; Robyn and Tamara pull cloth forward to reveal O and D.
Felt there needed to be some sort of entrance just before the opening scene, added some music and some abstract movement. Possible lighting?
