'Oliver Twist- Development Phase Essay\r'

' In our drama class, our teacher Mrs. Oteng had asked us to develop on our functioning of Oliver change form. We had previously performed the response phase which was a map gather with the main scenes of the novel by Charles Dickens. In the root of crime in society, in which we were covering, the novel of ‘Oliver falsify’ had aloneowed the class to have an insight of crime in the time-worn periods compared to right away. By seeing the angle in both perspectives, it anyowed the class to realise the consequences today and earlier and how crime affected lives.\r\nThe teaching phase was all based on evolution the movement with the make wont of of light, sustain, tone, levels and medicine. The change in the exemplify would allow the sense of hearing to see how these strategies changed the emotion in a trifle and how it bought life to it. The people who I decided to prepare with were Vishna, Daanish and Moshgan. We deeded advantageously unitedly and e in truthone in the aggroup had imaginative thinkings.\r\nWith the idea of bringing out a diametrical side to each slip we erectd the capital punishment by taking on the role of expert a few of the characters and showe a pick out opposite to what they are authencetically like. peckerwood Sikes was walkover by Daanish in the first scene. He vie the usual murderer who killed without mercy and who never looked back. However, I looseness a transvestite and sensitive bloom Sikes who was the complete opposite to him. In this case I was his conscience and I was playing the same mode he was barely in my own version. This allowed the auditory modality to see what a different personality of Bill would have done to the real play of Oliver Twist.\r\nSimilarly, Vishna play Nancy as the gentle and kind-hearted woman we knew, while Moshgan played the cold-hearted, stuck-up complete opposite to the real character to Nancy. By doing this we could keep to the same storyline but we al lowed the auditory sense to see what it was like if the characters had a subaltern change in their personality.\r\nWe as well as foc utilize on the relationship between Nancy and Bill Sikes. In the novel, they had a loveless and tactless relationship, while in our play we took it from the real angle and in a real, winning relationship. This created a contrast in the play which allowed the interview to see both perspectives. This was the aim of our play and I believe the reference slow mute that.\r\nI believe that our group did extremely well and the audience enjoyed it. It was one of the most complicated plays to put together because of the changes in the scenes and the change of characters as a group. However, the use of props allowed each of the characters to be distinguished easily and the audience understood who each one of us was; more efficiently. I wore a tight shirt, which showed my homosexual character and the way in which I was safekeeping my tree trunk was convi ncing. Daanish wore a puffy jacket which showed his government agency and toughness. Moshgan wore a tight pink screening which showed of her body which showed that she was a prostitute while Vishna wore neutral garb which did not need to reveal much. The use of props really helped to enhance our drama.\r\nTowards the end of our drama, Mrs. Oteng played a piece of sad and somber music which really enhanced our drama when Nancy was getting beaten by Bill Sikes which lead to her death. The music made the audience feel more connected to the drama and the music added emotion to the drama and bought sympathy for Vishna’s character.\r\nWe did not use light in our performance as we found it was unnecessary. However, we used different tones in our voices’ and we used different levels on stage and even withdraw stage. We used the explorative strategies well enough for top marks. On a whole, our class had many individualist thought-tracks which showed how I characters felt w hich was equally as important. My thought-tracks were in truth comedic which made the audience laugh after all the violence and upsetting scenes which were to follow. By saying things like, ‘I shave the hairs on my chest’, made the audience laugh. I believe that a little mental capacity would ease the audience a little moment and that is why I was the only comedic character as we had to keep to the topic of crime.\r\nUnder the topic of ‘ discourtesy in Society’, I believe that our play showed domestic violence the most and this was our main focus. domesticated violence occurs a lot in today’s society but also in the olden days. The points we were conveying were that it was as bad then, then as today. On a whole, I was sprightly with my group’s performance and I enjoyed works with them.\r\nI was now told to observe another groups performance and comment on the way in which they veritable their drama. The group that I decided to observe was with Louise, Mohammed, Aiman, Sumhar, Anthony and Maya. This group had six people and I believed that they worked very well together to come up with a performance which included everybody. They changed Sumhar’s role as ‘Oliver Twist’ to Olivia Twist. from each one character kept in role and they used the drama equally as well. Each of the character’s thought-tracked and they used levels and tones in their voices to enhance their drama. Their play was based on the scene where Olivia gets kidnapped by Fagin and Bill Sikes for Nancy’s pleasure. Nancy played by Maya had also changed her role from being a nice, kind-hearted woman to a frail, evil woman. This was similar to our group’s idea and this was effective as only one of the characters had changed personality. I loved watching this performance, each character was in role and I understood the storyline very well.\r\nThe aspect of Crime in Society in this play was based on kidnappings, peopl e owing money, poverty and how this all leads to deaths in society.\r\nOn a whole, I believe that by developing the play of ‘Oliver Twist’, I learnt the consequences of crime in the olden days. I t also taught me how to enhance a play by taking a simplistic idea from a particular scene and by working on it to show the audience something they force not have realised or understood as much. I enjoyed working on the development phase and I believe that by developing the performance we encounter more. I would like to work on developing a performance in the future and I liked this part of the shop class the most.\r\n'
