Drama PortfolioHow did the starting line drama exercise develop your ideas?We first tried a simple drama interview with some prejudice. We belief we could develop it by adding more drama strategies. We also perspective that we could append the prejudice of the interviewer andmaybe, instead of him saying his own home(a) thoughts, he could go aconscience/alter-ego to say it for him.

We all thought that thepoem was active prejudice in the workplace. The main(prenominal) character isinterviewing good deal and discriminating against them because of theirdifferences. We thought that a earnest drama developing from this poemwould be in the form of an interview.What did your crowd decide?Our group decided to do the interview. We had 3 interviewees. Eachwould have a different characteristic i.e. colour, mentality,disa bility etc. They would be interviewed by a very prejudiced, racistperson who would incur increasingly so after each interview.Strategies, media, elementsWe used 2 main strategies within this drama. The interviewer had whatwe called, an alter-ego or conscience. There was a good (angel),neutral (everyday man) and an barbarous (devil) conscience. Thesecontrolled him. As each interviewee enters, the scene would freeze andthe conscience would give their inner thoughts about the person. Thealter-egos were placed on chairs, above, and surrounding theinterviewer to show control all over him. We build this drama up to astring climax. One second, encumbrance and business, and the next, silenceand solitude.What did you learn from other peoples ideas and work?I learnt, from i of my group members, that you should think beyondthe actual drama and use as some drama elements as you can to developyour drama.
