physical theatre definition


1) Use your own words to describe what you think Physical Theatre is and write a definition.

To me i think physical theatre is a type or form of theatre that focuses or emphasises on the use of physical movement reather than dialouge which isnt used much 


 2)Then upload your photos from the lesson as an example and explain what you are doing in the images and why.





In this image we were acting like a blender that sucks people's hands in  as we formed a cicle to form the blender and then someone was in the middle acting as the shredder of the blender as you can see the blender was trying to suck in his hand and he stood in a position which shows that he was trying to pull away and it was against his will.


a) Is all Physical Theatre without dialogue/words? explain 


No not all physical theatre dont have dialouge, some of the presentation actually use dialogue but only a little of it to make the audience to understand more about the show.


b) Name a Physical Theatre practitioner and tell me something about them (read all of the pages before you answer this.) 

DV8 are a group of practitioners. they are known to focus on dramatic potetianls which is unlocked from movement. Thier work is also described as crossroads where dance, sound and dram meet . They are also well known for exploring the aspects of human relationships and social or cultural issues.


c) What art forms does Physical Theatre combine? explain. 


Physical theatre combines the art of techniques such as movement, mime, gesture and dance and a lot more and this is a from of art.

d) Give an example of how you could use Physical Theatre in a performance of a play text you know. 

For romeo and juillet in the dance banquet they could have just stared at eachother in a trance and romantic music might play in the backgorund an the audience will understand that they are in love instead of actually saying "i love you".


e) Include any other information that you found interesting or did not know before.

I found out more about actual prctitioners who have this has thier jobs as i never knew people actually had jobs as this

My video

I couldn't do the video because I was kicked out of the group  as I couldn't make it to the filming area. I do not have a group nor do I have a video right now.

Reflection.

The propose of the video was to help people become more aware of domestic violence in homes and how to take care of it. My group decided to make a video of a man and woman watching TV which showed a video about domestic violence. After this the couple sleep and then the man dreams about him coming back from work after a stressful day at work, in which he dreams about him beating his wife up. He wakes up and then says to his wife , "I will never do that to you"
Although I do not know if this has Been updated yet this is all I know about it.
We used body language like when we the wife was mad and confused she waved her hands around to show it. When the woman was also hurt on the she also curled up to show she was feeling pain.

I think we could have improved if I was able to make it to the filming area and also we should have filmed in class so we won't have to go through this much problems and we should also work on voice projection but otherwise we were pretty good.
