We have decided to film our final performances because they take place in two locations at different times. We will also film interviews with the public about Lincoln’s division and edit that into our final film, which will work as research to inspire our performance. This research method is also used by the Chicago-based Community Performance, Inc. According to George Hillow, ‘since 1991, Artistic Director Richard Geer has been going into communities across America and helping individuals find their own unique theatrical voices by interviewing them and compiling their stories into scripts’ (Stage Directions, 2002).
Also today, the class did a small flash mob exercise on Lincoln High Street so we could get a feel for performing in a public place, which was very useful.
