Double Performing Arts Lesson (7th November 2015) 'DAY OF THE PRODUCTION!'

Today was the day of our production of 'Fantastic Mr Fox'.
We began today sorting out props making sure we have everything we need. Unfortunately we only had 1 farmers hat. Lewis and James were arguing over who got the hat because they both wanted it. I suggested Bean should have the hat because James and I both had individual factors that showed us as the farmers (Boggis has a fat belly and Bunce squats to shows he's short, however Bean has nothing). Therefore Lewis claimed the fat cap as his farmer factor.


After we decided where each prop would be on the stage and set up for run through performance. Miss McSherry invited her Year 9 class to come in and watch our production in the hopes they might find small improvement we missed.
During this run through we did realise another problem as after 'We'll never let him go' (The last Farmer scene) we left to the right of the stage in single file like we have every other scene. However in the next sequence of scenes I would be introduced as Mole rather than Boggis and I come on stage left however I would be stage right. I pointed this out to Lewis and he changed the script in 'We'll never let him go' rather than us all walking off the same way he sent me off stage right therefore I could be on the right side of the stage to be introduced as 'Mole'.
