Plotting

Today was the day of our plot. We entered the New Theatre and were given a quick talk about safety, being quiet, etc.

We were then told to talk quietly or be silent for about 20 minutes while they were doing some of the lighting things. It was really interesting to see the lighting and the set together as it made it feel more real and exciting! We got to see the platform and the new cauldron

for the first time as well! They were testing out different coloured lights and Shanay was asked to stand in the space just so that they could see what it would look like on the actor and what effects it would have.

We were then asked to do the Love Dance in the space while they figured out lighting. Again, we were asked to get in our opening positions, places for the Hacca, and then our positions after the Hacca before being asked to leave. I really wanted to stay to see the lighting happen, as it was new to me, however I did not volunteer, which I do regret.

Here are some pictures of our set with the lighting:
