Devising (8) - The boys work...

I was not in this lesson, due to an audition, so I had to leave the boys to the work. In this lesson they decided that they weren't going to do the 9/11 idea. Instead they decided that they wanted to do an event that is less well known. I agreed with this idea as it would be less cliché and less typical. Therefore, they decided to do the beheading of Lee Rigby by the Islamic State supporters, but from the perspective of Danny Cornelius. Danny Cornelius was a witness of this event, but he killed himself three years after the event. As a teenager, he was robbed at knifepoint of his gold chain. As a young adult he was forced to take money out of a cashpoint at gunpoint. Danny was a single man who visited his Nan and Grandad a lot, but committed suicide in their garden by hanging himself with shoe laces.

They also discussed that for my scene we could do a scene about abortions - as this is an experience that would haunt someone.
