Handbag

We have decided that we will use a scripted piece for our performance the best script we found was a scene from Handbag, this is because two of their characters are based on the notorious duo Jon Venebles and Robert Thompson. The scene we will be using is an argument between the two, where Robert is trying to wind up Jon, the key thing we want to show is the powershift between Jon and Rob. So we get to see Rob's desperation and optimism towards the situation of being in prison. We've done this by switching some of the lines and the use of proxemics and levels. I like this scene as we now get to see the real side of Rob, and the scene gives Rob a motive why he hasn't re-offended like Jon has.

In the middle of the scene during the dialogue we circle each other which is when the audience starts to see that Jon is starting to strip the power away from Rob, the reason we did this is because we wanted to show the audience a different side of Jon Venables the side that led him to re-offend.This will change the audiences opinion on Jon and realise that Jon is nothing but bad and agressive individual.

We will run through this scene to make sure it's polished enough for our performance,
