My First Impressions Of Blackout


My first impressions of the play blackout was an imitate warmth and like to it. In really enjoyed the unusual aspects it contained. The one line structure (streaming conscience)had a really nice rhythm to witch flowed really effectively a bit like a poem. i also really like the sound it made when doing the read though ad we were sitting in a circle and one after the other read a each. this created a echoing effect witch i thought was nice as well as having everyone individual voices made it  his   its a really inventive way of engaging the audience (ie. Us ) for you weren't expecting what was going to happen next this makes it quite suspenseful. 

Linking back to the structure i like how there is no main charterer really because everyone is as an ensemble is telling a story about one person. so together we are one and we are the conscience. i think this will work really well and as a class we can do a lot with it .

I think this play has a lot of potential and cant wait to work with it . As well as the play being a quirky structure to it, it address many social problems to it this making the play have more depth to it already. Such as fascism, bullying , crime and so on. i think these will be insightful topics to study and work with.
Although the it was a was bit confusing for the Scottish dialectic was still remanding in the scripted,as a class we managed to work though it !
