PMD1/2 Structuring a Performance and Responding to Masquerade Fan

[image of structure]

The above image shows the beginning of a structure for performance we formulated considering all of the material we had generated thus far. This will be helpful to refer back to when producing later scenes, and for integrating new scenes should we choose to do so at a later date. 


This video depicts our initial response to the idea of masquerade and using fans incorperating motifs made following watching the below clip from Phantom of the Opera. We created makeshift fans for the purpose of the generating process, and actual fans will be obtained at a later point. Whilst with one person it looks rather simplistic, I envisaged the whole cast performing it in single file, with the front person courtesying, and those behind falling to either side in canon, following discussion regarding the idea of  falling and courtesying being linked. The person at the back of the line would remain standing, they representing the plague.
