Blood Brothers :: Drama
Blood Br new(prenominal)sMy practical work in September to celestial latitude was for my acting option.It was a scripted piece of work based on the play Blood Brothers.There are various themes in Blood Brothers, a clash of class, romance,jealousy, and betrayal.My contribution to the performance was as a seven-year-old child. Iplayed Edward. Edward is a rattling reserved character. He is well spokenand polite and is very surprised and shocked at many things rice paddy(his friend) does. He comes from a wealthy background and so is usedto having everything he needs. He enjoys helping other people out.When acting as Edward I needed to have a very good posture. Holdingmyself well, this showed a contrast between Edwardss stop number class andMickeys lower class. I as well as needed to speak well, pronouncing mywords clearly. This again showed a clear contrast between Mickey andEdwards class.To help me in my work I looked for information on the Internet andbooks I looked at pictures of y oung boys in the 1950s, this helped mechoose my costume. I also listened to the Blood Brothers sound track,and watched a professional performance of Blood Brothers at thePhoenix Theatre. I also read a play called Blue remembered Hills byDennis Potter.The most useful material I looked at was the production of BloodBrothers at the Phoenix theatre. This is because it helped me withmany things. To begin with I watched and listened to Edward verycarefully. I took promissory note of the way in which he moved and the facialexpressions he used. I also listened very carefully to the pace atwhich he spoke and the whole tone of his voice. I could and then use this toimprove my personal performance. I also observed the costume Edwardwas wearing. This helped me to decide what I should wear for myperformance.I am direct going to contrast and compare Blood Brothers with BlueRemembered Hills our piece was set in the 1950s. However, the otherplay was set in 1943 during the Second World War. The plays were homogeneous because they both started off with people very happy, playingand enjoying themselves. However as they continued both plays becamemore serious and in the end at least(prenominal) one person was killed in both.There also some differences. To begin with Blood Brothers is acyclical play. This means it starts at the end, then goes to beginningthen the end again. Blood Brothers also skipped large time gaps. Theplay showed scenes with the same characters as children teenagers andadults in the 1850s 60s 70s and 80s.
