So far our work began on a rocky start with several restarts and scrapping of ideas. However, we have made a good start now on our piece and used/developed previous ideas such as the work we did for initial material 3 of the U2 song "Stuck in a moment you can't get out of" put changed it to a scene where the girls are getting ready to go out for a night on the town. this scene establishes the characters and the focus on Brittany's character "Sophie". The girls get ready in front of the "mirror" which is the audience.
The second scene is at the nightclub and the queue for the nightclub. This was easily developed as we knew we needed to involve a physical theatre element and the changing of identities. We developed this scene by making a the queue line be pushed forward and the girls, in slow motion would fall onto one another and slowly move to get back up and move around each other. We incorporated Danny as the original "Horatio Freezer" who drops his ID when the girls lunge forward. Horatio seeks to lose his identity and does so by swapping it with Sophie's. Once the girls are in the club Sophie mentions the ID that is Horatio Freezers so the audience knows that there has been a swap.
Our third scene which is still in development is the office scene where the workers enter the office slowly and freeze once they have entered until Danny enters. They then start to converse and move around in a flushed state due to the chaotic work environment. This took quite a while to sort out the movements but once we finished it, it looked very good and well choreographed. The ensemble movments for the phone call is still in development as is the recorded message.
