project 4 problem solving
For this show, we adapted it to song and dance instead of the technology used in the original production We have other cast members fill in for when the assigned was not present, and the same applies to the dance numbers as well.
so I have another character to play alongside Mr Thompson the station policeman in part 2 scene 1 just as Christopher boards the train to go and see his mother

the programs for fmp I chose this design because it looks professional and more you would see in a theatre
the photos above are from Act 1 and we used a lot of physical theatre in some of these scenes like the fight scene between Christopher and ed

The program that Amber and made together
So, the show, we had to look at the original and how we could tweak it slightly For example, there is a lot of physical theatre in the original; for ours, we put song and dance and some physical theatre scenes like when chrisopher is looking for his book

These are all the videos of the scenes and opening number we have done so far Above are feedback from Steph and and overall,, so far,, we are doing well To say that this is the third week of doing this, the programs are finished I just need to keep updating them every so often
So last week I got so much done, research-wise and production side as well
So this week we have almost finished part 1 of 2, so we are slowly getting there overall. So far, the rehearsals are going well, we laugh sometimes
What went well
The dance numbers we have done or started so far are going well
even better if
I need to improve with my characterisation and facial language
So yesterday we continued the run, boy run the dance because we needed to finish it
Overall, this project was stressful, but we ultimately got there. For me, this project was fun. We had laughs, and there were serious bits alongside me with family problems as well, but I managed to get through it
I feel like the show could have been better, but we did the best we could do

the basic plot of the story
Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime is a play which centres on Christopher Boone, who is 15 years of age is trying to figure out what happened to the dog and also what happened to his mother, Judy.
The first actor to play Christopher was openly autistic. The show was banned for religious reasons and foul language for using the Lord’s name in vain
