Today we didnt do any work on our performance as such. We instead we focused on our story telling abilities and voices. We all had to tell a childs story that we made up on the spot. The story i made up was about a boy called Jake who lived in the woods and stumbled onto a house. When he went to look inside the door locked behind him and he was attack by two people who tied him to a chair and wouldnt let him go until he could give them a legit reason to why he is in their house. When he cant they force him to work until he passes out from being over work. When one of the people leaves to go get some food the other one feels sorry for Jake and lets him go. However when he goes to leave he runs into the person who went to get the food. The two people who own the house and made jake work fight and jake escapes when they are not looking.
I found this really hard to do as I had to focus on so many things at once. I had to focus on the way i spoke. Telling the story and coming up with the rest of the story. I did find this lesson helpful as it should me what i had to work on and how i need to improve so that i can perform better in childrens theatre.
