wolves..

During the first week of blocking the play, we had begun to learn a piece of physical theatre. It was to represent the wolves and their fierceness. 

We had tried different movements that could possibly represent a wolf. An example would be the running and falling,  this gave us a chance to leave our comfort zones and become more wolf like with out physicality. The running would help us with the feeling of wind brushing past us. 

We did this multiple times as well as the routine and would try it different ways each time. We had to be tight together and look angry and carry a wolf physicality, so it was repeated to make it look more appealing and structured. 

We had done some experimenting on how we could present the chorus's. We had gotten into groups of three and created a horse and carriage, then a table. Although i think it was good for us to try different way other than just saying a story to an audience it didnt go well and was very messy. 

This didnt end up being in our piece as we didnt like the idea plus it also wasnt working with the way we wanted the rest of the play to work out. 

We also experimented with portraying wolves into a chorus section. We would take a wolf like posture and move around the scaffolding onto other sections. However, although this worked well at first it didn't quite work too well when we continued blocking things and so it was changed slightly.

Although some things were taken out and some kept in we did manage to put in the wolf like modes of the chorus and it worked in our final piece as it was very creepy and interesting, instead of people just standing there with a story to tell.
