Drama Lesson Fourteen
Today was our final performance of our Children's Theatre piece 'Storybox Land'.

The performance we did today was our groups best as in terms of structure, line confidence and instructions given because had had the other performances to learn and adapt from. The placement of the spoon, bowl and cereal hadn't change much due to the children finding them rather easily. We managed to devise the changing from the dragon to the prince rather easily and didn't have to adapt it for any performances because it was the most efficient way for it to happen yet it was affective.

After the performance the afternoon before, we had finalised our placement of the spots and where the children would be lined up before following them to give Daniel his magical cereal. As well as this, we finalised the dance moves for the end when 'Shrek' is playing so that the children have some rough guide to follow so it is less overwhelming for them, we also decided to have a free-style section for the children to dance in anyway they'd like.

I felt that this performance was our groups best because we had finalised positions for certain objects and certain lines to be delivered and all this helped the flow of the piece which made it feel more natural to the actors.
