We Are All Actors!

For 3 days we have been so lucky to have Robert Randall working with us and helping us to do drama! We have tried many new, fun, active and interesting activities.

We needed to use our imagination the whole time, which can be hard to do, but we were getting better at it!!

We had so much fun pretending to be lots of amazing things and people.  We tried to use our bodies to express different feelings without using our facial expressions. We wore masks to hide our faces.

We even used 'things' and pretended they were different things, like a banana could become a telephone or a moustache and a dog toy became a pair of glasses.  We had to be so convincing with our actions that the audience could guess what we were using.

We also created a stutue garden.  Each person must 'freeze' in the position of a person or an object, then each additional person must join the 'garden' and become something that makes sense being there.  Then some or all of us gets to put the ideas into action.  For example, if you were a bridge in a park, then the next person could be the pond, or the ducks in the pond or a person walking in the park, etc. 

We played lots of games to get our minds working in creative ways! Have you ever thought of being an actor/actress?  Would you like to try some drama games sometime??

               It was a great time for all!!
