We have managed to read through our play together and work out where we are positioned on stage and concentrate on 'blocking'.

The first challenge was to work out who the characters were in the play and who they were related to.

We have had thoughts on whether to introduce the style of Brecht to our performance as this would enable the audience to feel more directed and give them the opportunity to be well informed by the use of this style in our performance.

We felt it may be challenging for the audience to completely engage in the performance alone without the use of Brechtian techniques.

A beat - is a pause or a cough

A beat is when you have a pause you change and it occurs in the way you are talking - realisation is a different interpretation.

A beat - cough - Put in the beats where you think they occur.
