Waiting for Godot 
Waiting for Godot was a brilliant performance and was a success for both of us. We both knew our lines and acting our characters through the piece very well I think we understood the acting style of absurdism and we did use techniques from this to show in our performance so the audience may have understood what type of piece we were doing. I think we used our characters really well and we played up to the audience really well making them laugh throughout the whole piece which was the reaction we wanted. The piece is absurdism so we understood we could mix our lines up and the script had a lot of different parts too so we just had to go with the part that was first to last but could make it random at times. Kat and I found it difficult to keep remember our lines and in the rehearsal stage we would keep trying not to use scripts all the time and keep going with the performance to see where it took us but we needed to make sure our body language and movement was still strong. Our accents as southern people worked really well and costumes as old men who can't afford a lot made us look funny and finished the part of well. Overall Kat and I worked really hard to get this performance the best it could be to show the audience and from the comments and feedback we got from everyone it was successful and the audience were laughing throughout some of the parts was about hanging ourselves and giving us an erections and when I took my boot of and fell over when I finally got it off my foot. I think if we were going to perform it again we should spent more time learning our lines and doing a dress run so we felt more comfortable and knew maybe we were going to use more props like some rope for the hanging part.

Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time
The physical theatre piece went really well all the lifts and movements ran smoothly and looked really effective. Playing this character was a challenge for me planning it but I think the audience understood what I was trying portray a lot of the group had to change their character but I had to keep the same character I think it looked a lot better that we had lots of the lines recorded and then I said all of mine live it worked very well. If I did it again I would do more research into playing this character and looking at different voices I could use. Our group worked really well together and came up with ideas but I think we should have tried out more to see if that would have worked better.
