Today we decided to explore our ideas relating to Temple Manor as we preferred Temple Manor as a class rather than Guildhall due to it's darker nature which would give us the opportunity to perform darker pieces/plays. We decided to go for our initial idea of The Crucible as the building suited the style of play and was built a few centuries before the events of The Crucible so it's a very realistic building choice to go for.
After making this temporary decision, we decided to watch the film of The Crucible to grasp the idea of the plot and get more familiar with the time era as only Kat had studied The Crucible before. We began by watching the first act of a stage version however this version expired, so we watched the movie from that point onwards which wasn't too confusing. Watching the movie/play helped inform the rest of us on the story and the lifestyle of those in the 1600's America.
Next lesson, we will work on researching ways to stage our take on the crucible, including costume, staging, and setting.
